What does your 'home' instance really matter?
  • The only way it matters is if/when it is defederated by/from other instances.

    That being said, some may or may not be more reliable than others, but that's a separate issue

    Caught myself copying my comment to the clipboard before hitting 'reply' and realized this really is the early days!
  • Markor is an app for "notes", that just happens to be fully capable of using markdown, and can handle mid length writing (up to a couple of chapters).

    While it doesn't sync with its own service, you can use any syncing apps to handle that. I use foldersync on my android devices, it syncs both ways from gdrive, my nas, and the sd card on each device it can be scheduled any way you want.

    But, when you know you're going to get wordy, you open markor, type away, and do it at leisure since unless the device dies totally, it'll just save where you are if you close the app. When you're done, copy/paste back into your app/site and Bob's your uncle.

    I use markor because it's well coded with no bugs I can find, it's open source, and it bloody well works. Standard markdown formatting, easy exports, easy to use. It's pretty much the most reliable app I've ever used, and by far the most reliable note/writing app

    Wendy Rogers may have violated Arizona’s ‘revenge porn’ law by tweeting x-rated pictures of Hunter Biden
  • It isn't, in this case. It says the law may have been broken. Until a prosecutor comes along and goes for an indictment, then the person is convicted, saying that they broke a law isn't a fact.

    It's splitting hairs for casual conversation, but when it comes to making a public statement, you run into libel issues.

    So, while it grumpy definitely is a fact that the pictures are released, and that she did so, no legitimate press is going to say she broke that law, only that she may have. If she's indicted, then they could say "charged with", or similar language. But until a jury in a criminal case renders a verdict, the press as a whole wouldn't be protected if they said she broke the law. Well, there's other things that would clear that language for use, but they still involve determination of guilt in the courts

    Basically, it covers their ass.
