I can see why. Although the stars occupy a larger portion of the sky, they are also further away than the moon. So either version of the phrase makes sense in its own way.
as they say - shoot for the stars, and you may just land on the moon.
I’ve only ever heard, “shoot for the moon, [and] even if you miss you’ll land among the stars”, which is the phrase as it was first said by Norman Vincent Peale. But maybe swapping “moon” and “stars” is a common enough variant of the phrase that I just haven’t heard before.
I’m honestly curious about what abuse potential this has compared to other federated platforms, because “it could be used to host dox” is a complaint that I’ve heard about Lemmy as well.
Why the heck would it be referring to the Israeli special forces? It’s obviously in reference to Thoth.
My friend, you’re on the fediverse and saying that a single website would be the best way to achieve this. I think that decentralization such as federation or peer-to-peer would be a much better way to achieve a pirate’s utopia, because the decentralized approach guarantees that even if one part falls, the whole will remain.
That aside, if I can talk about “What other features would make the ideal file sharing site?” — for a pirate video streaming site in particular, my number one feature would easily be community-contributed subtitles. In the list of subtitle tracks, each track would have two checkboxes, one for text and the other for TTS (this would be used for audio description and makeshift voice-over dubs). For rarer languages without reliable TTS, users would be encouraged to submit voice recordings, which might be anonymized with AI to sound like the TTS voice.
Subtitling would be done with a danmaku-esque system, so that people can choose to contribute just a few pieces here and there and wait for other contributors or continue later, rather than just one person needing to subtitle everything. Users might be able to rate subtitle tracks based on quality and completeness, too. A system of upvotes and downvotes on individual subtitles, as well as both manual and automated moderation, would prevent abuse.
