So only certain bigots count, got it.
The feeling of ownership, of oh I can go host an instance at home and knowing that you aren’t at the whim of corporate admins or a company’s poor fortune, is so incredibly cool. I really hope more decentralized/selfhostable alternatives to major services start to take off.
In other news, VPN services have increased sales by 200%
Even on the instance you’re talking about nobody said that, but okay. Interesting trend to put violent extremist words into people’s mouths and then call them violent extremists.
Every censorship-enjoyer loves talking about the Paradox of Tolerance. Here’s the part Popper said that they like to gloss over:
I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be unwise.
At that point though again, why don’t you just go to a more heavily moderated instance (which there are plenty of) rather than demand heavier moderation on this instance? Also, wanting a more relaxed standpoint on defederation, I can’t see him wanting to move to a server that’s likely to be heavily defederated by other instances itself.
You’re reducing load on the bigger instances by not using them directly, which is giving something back
Reddit’s popularity will slowly fade
Reddit definitely screws things up often enough for regular waves of recruitment lol
here come the defed request memes, I have a feeling these are gonna be popular across lemmy for a while
I honestly thought libertarian was the more flattering descriptor
Yeah, so do they - that’s why they try to co-opt the term lol
Seems like something you should block individual users over rather than a whole instance
I never said they were equivalent.
Comma separation implies a list of traits (users are both r/thedonald users and libertarian) whereas or/and would imply that libertarians and r/thedonald users both exist in the instance
What term would you use to describe their users?
Conservative/MAGA fits the majority of the content a lot better
If you genuinely think libertarians are equivalent to r/thedonald posters, you have no clue what you’re talking about. Which is why defederating based on politics is stupid.
Not the prettiest instance, but have they caused any real trouble outside of their own instance? Not much of a fediverse if we just defederate from instances that lean different politically. Especially seems like a weird move to go defederating on other instances this early given y’know, that we just got defederated from beehaw because of one misbehaved asshole.
The high number of users on .world is because it still has open registration
I wonder if accounts on certain servers will be “prestigious” one day lol
no summer lemmy until the kids figure out the fediverse
Problem is that 1) this will drastically increase the centrality of servers Jerboa chooses 2) if Jerboa treats all servers equally when choosing to avoid point 1, well, all servers aren’t made equally. What happens if someone’s closest/optimal server is one that some guy spun up temporarily and takes down next week? How many users would leave immediately and have the wrong impression of the fediverse forever if they joined through Jerboa and then got dropped into the likes of Lemmygrad or Yiffit since it’s the nearest server to them lol…
Yeah, it’s bad. I’ll probably be looking into hosting my own kbin instance on principle soon.
