If you intended RFC to be a reference to IETF RFCs you should now it originally stood for Requests for Comments before simply being referred to as RFCs. (link) I didn't have to read your document in detail, but it seems reasonable and well thought out.

Anyone have general guidelines/tips for when something would be a bug report/feature request for Lemmy vs Lemmy.World vs Liftoff?

Here's a quick attempt:

  • app -- how a link/image/video is opened, and how you see what can be seen and how you can do what can be done. It could do filtering, but then you might waste resources on the platform downloading things you won't see.
  • the platform -- determines all actions you can take that can be seen by other users, what settings admins can use
  • the instance -- can toggle the aforementioned settings, write scripts for automated actions (even things not allowed by the API), change the web app through styles

Lemmy down?

Looks like it. Does this mean that what you wrote here will only be visible in the sh.itjust.works instance until lemmyml is online again, or is it more resilient than that?

Where should communities live?

Say I was looking for a community like yours. Since yours is the first one I will likely see much more activity on it and skip the one with 0 if it was created afterwards just for the vanity url.

Since lemmy.ca says it's not restricted to non-Canadian topics and welcomes all, I see nothing wrong if you create it there. Also, if the content isn't images uploaded through Lemmy, I wouldn't worry about taking up resources, as storage space seems to be the limiting resource, not traffic (in the form of bandwidth or CPU time).

Carbon pricing would raise trillions needed to tackle climate crisis, says IMF | Traditionally unpopular carbon taxes could be achieved with regulatory compliance, IMF head tells Cop 28

It is different from carbon credits. I don't think you get a rebate from not emitting. If the cost is passed onto the consumer when there are good alternatives with less carbon, they will be out-competed. One thing with few alternatives is transportation, which low-income households tend to spend more on.
