Looks like theres a final surprise in the form of a song in Apollo now that it’s closed.

Can anyone identify the artist?

EDIT: someone managed to find it. From Christian’s YouTube page:

A fun parody of Sarah McLachlan’s I Will Remember You performed by the incredible Zoe Wynns

    Question. Who owns these lemmy sites? I understand it’s decentralized. Can someone breakdown exactly what that means? Who, if anyone, owns these sites/servers, how it all works?

      Anyone can make their own server. Then those server talk to each other to share the posts, comments and votes. You are on lemm.ee, I’m on lemmy.one, different owner, slightly different rules, but we see the same stuff

        Ok so each person hosts their own server, and thus pays for the server? Something along those lines?

              Could be a multitude of reasons. Some people just really enjoy sysadmin work, some maybe want to play around with the software. Places like Beehaw have a goal of creating what they consider to be an open and welcoming community. Some even have nefarious reasons for hosting (luckily we have defederation).

              I just think it’s neat lmao

              It’s not very expensive yet as I have under 100 users, if it gets more expensive I’ll ask for donations. If that doesn’t cover it, I’ll just stop letting new people register

        Normally they can talk to each other and share posts/comments. That’s the so call federated. Unless, it’s beehaw and world. Those two aren’t talking. So beehaw is not federated.

      Can be anyone. You download the software and put it on a server. Can be bare metal in your bedroom or a VM on Amazon Web Services. Individual/enthusiast owned, corporate owned, it’s open to anyone to host an instance.
