Jupiter Rowland's (streams) outletReviving this channel because I had to meme about the recent AWS outage.
[spoiler=Content warning for the image: eye contact, alcohol]
The image is based on the Leonardo DiCaprio Laughing meme template (KnowYourMeme entry). It has DiCaprio's character Calvin Candie ridicule the fact that the outage of Amazon Web Services, starting on Sunday, October 19th, 2025 took dozens of other centralised online service offline as well because they are hosted on Amazon Web Services.
Next to the virtual world system Roblox (Wikipedia, official website) and the massively multiplayer online game Fortnite (Wikipedia, official website), this also struck Second Life, one of the oldest virtual worlds still around (Wikipedia, official website). After the Second Life owner company Linden Lab was taken over by three investors a few years ago, the decision was made to cut costs by getting rid of Second Life's own server farm and moving the whole grid to Amazon Web Services.
On the other hand, there is OpenSimulator, OpenSim in short (article written by me that explains it, Wikipedia, official website and wiki). It lacks such a single point of failure because it is a decentralised network of over 4,000 big and small independent worlds called "grids". The biggest grids run on rented Web space, but even they rely on various providers in various places in the world. Many smaller grids are even hosted on machines at their admins' homes, ranging from purpose-built servers to off-the-shelf laptop computers all the way down to Raspberry Pis for personal grids.
It simply is impossible for OpenSim to go down in its entirety when some server infrastructure fails because it doesn't rely on one central server infrastructure.

Jupiter's Fedi-Memes on (streams)I've read that Bluesky is offline. I can't impossibly not spork that. So have a double feature.
[spoiler=Caution: Images hidden due to eye contact]
The first image is based on the "Dr. Evil Air Quotes" meme. The second image is based on the "Oh No! Anyway" meme template.
On November 14th, 2024, Bluesky's main instance, bsky.social, went offline. Effectively, this meant that Bluesky as a whole went offline because bsky.social is the one instance were practically everyone is. Hardly anyone knows that other so-called PBS's exist, and Bluesky is frequently considered to be not decentralised at all.

It takes a jab at how vulnerable to spam especially Mastodon is while Hubzilla and (streams) are very resilient against it. Mastodon and other Fediverse projects have suffered from several waves of spam, one of which is on-going, but Hubzilla and (streams) have never been affected. There are various reasons for this.
One reason is the option to be notified if mentioned by a non-connection out of the blue. On Mastodon, this option is on by default, and next to nobody turns it off. On Hubzilla and (streams), this option is off by default, and hardly anyone turns it on.
Another reason is because both Hubzilla and (streams) have very advanced permissions systems with over a dozen parameters. For example, on Mastodon, anyone whom you follow can send you their posts and their boosts, and anyone can reply to your posts and send you DMs. The only countermeasures are muting them, blocking them, blocking their entire instance or having the admins or mods take care of them.
Hubzilla and (streams), in contrast, have vastly more powerful means of self-moderation. They have separate permissions settings for others to send posts, reply to posts and send DMs, amongst other permission settings. These permissions can be generally restricted for the whole Hubzilla or (streams) channel and then granted to certain contacts, keeping non-contacts out. Ignoring and blocking come on top as last resorts.
And this is only what users can do. Admins have some other tricks up their sleeves.
Lastly, it's very unlikely that someone will use Hubzilla or (streams) to send spam and even less likely that a bot will use Hubzilla or (streams) to send spam. You can't just create an account and spam away like on Mastodon. It's more likely for public instances of Hubzilla or (streams) to have registration approval than for Mastodon instances. Also, you have to create a channel to be able to post from it; not your account is your identity with everything in it, but your channel is. This is an extra obstacle. Lastly, while almost the entire rest of the Fediverse defaults to posting in public, both Hubzilla and (streams) default to posting privately to to certain contacts, changing which is anything but straight-forward.

I guess we've all reacted this way at least once already.
[spoiler=Caution: Image hidden due to eye contact]
This is a universal reaction image macro from whenever Mastodon acts in a way that displeases the developers or users of non-Mastodon Fediverse projects, sometimes even Mastodon's own users. Whenever Mastodon's self-imposed limitations stand in the way of something, whenever Mastodon's refusal to comply with established standards and preference for non-standard solutions leads to incompatibility et cetera, this image macro can be used to blame it all on Mastodon's creator, Eugen Rochko, also known as Gargron.
It is based on the "Dinkleberg" meme template. An explanation can be found on KnowYourMeme.
