  • About a year in and a couple distro hops, the only time I’ve had something properly break on its own was when my Fedora Sway install forgot where to find font info.

    That was the last time I distrohopped, went to Endeavour and got quite cozy with the “fuck you do it yourself” mentality. If my stuff was gonna break, I should at least expect it and have plans

    I imagine you just couldn’t find the words at the time but I would have, with relative accuracy, summed this up as:

    “Each server on that web can communicate with every other server on that web by using ‘secret’ information to determine a path to get there”

    Each federated service is on its own web

    I know you said simplification to the point of inaccuracy, but while I’m being pedantic:

    “Each federated service is on its own web, but imagine they overlap with each other in such a way to bleed into a single web”
