С 14 марта 2024 года администрация платформы Discord начала блокировать доступ российским пользователям к некоторым серверам с запрещенной в РФ информацией. Пользователи Discord из РФ сообщили Хабру,...
Lmao nah. Lemmy is just decentralized censorship. Anyone can ban or block anything else; anyone can start their own community instance and kill it on a whim. Multiple communities have already defederated in the less than a year that I’ve been on here.
Lemmy solves the issue of centralized censorship/echo chamber communities, by replacing them with individual personalized echo chambers that you get to censor yourself. It’s a lot of work to set it up and sustain that type of situation, so it’s not realistic for a rational person that does not have a severe internet addiction to waste their time and effort doing it.
replacing them with individual personalized echo chambers
Which really wouldn’t be that bad if instances were more clear about how they operate. Like, on the user signup page, there should be a big ol checkbox saying “I UNDERSTAND THAT ANYTHING THATS NOT A POSITIVE POST ABOUT COMMUNISM WILL GET ME BANNED” or whatever
It’s been fun abusing a Lemmy bug (or an API feature, depending on how you look at it) that lets you see what a removed comment originally said on a certain .ml instance. Unsurprisingly, they almost always were something negative about China or Russia.
absolitely agree, the lemmy.ml mods (but especially the admons) are extremely trigger happy to remove anything they don’t like wjethet it breaks any rules or not
Yes. It’s basically required. Weed helps too, though many experts claim that you don’t need to smoke it and simply touching grass will suffice but idk man. Better to play it safe and just take rips between sips.
It more like the opposite. Federated instances can keep all the federated posts without ever deleting them. Then also sell and monetize it.

Shutting down an instance doesn’t mean it’s censorship. If a library shuts down if it can’t stay up, is that censorship?

You always have the option of changing instances if you don’t like what the admins are doing, or creating accounts on those defederated instances to see what they’re up to.

what are the symptoms of internet addiction, and can it be treated with alcohol?
Yes. It’s basically required. Weed helps too, though many experts claim that you don’t need to smoke it and simply touching grass will suffice but idk man. Better to play it safe and just take rips between sips.
We know that spending several billions of dollars on a social media site is NOT one of them.
Alcohol is a solution, according to science.
Acshually, a solvent. 🙃
Solvent all my problems, boooiiiiiiii
