    Censorship

    Jump

  • Mastodon and Lemmy themselves don't offer services. The people who install the app on their servers do. They set up their instance, with their rules and setup. Anyone who doesn't follow their rules isn't welcome.

    But let's say that users have a problem with how instance A is handling it's modding. If they're on another instance B, they could ask their admin to block instance A. If you're on instance A, you can change instances, or better yet, make your own.

    What we tell people that want to join is that there is no centralised server. Unlike reddit, if you get banned there, you have no link aggregator to go to. But if you get banned on Lemmy, you can, and I will repeat myself, change instances or make your own.

  • Nope, not even you guys are good to their eyes. When will you learn?

    Censorship

  • Again, not wanting to hear bullshit != censoring. You can just go ahead and make your own instance that flames transgender people just for existing, if that's your thing, but people might find you annoying and rude and might not want to hang out with you.

    Would you consider me blocking you to be censorship, for example? And if not, why would it be different if an entire group blocks you?

  • That's not the point of the fediverse, and what you're describing isn't censorship. It's more akin to a group of people not wanting to talk to you anymore, so they kick you out of their group. You can always create your own group, but it requires effort and people who want to interact with you.

    If an instance's rules bother you, you could change instances, or better yet, make your own. That's the point of ActivityPub.

    Also I don't think "censorship" would really make a community die (go look at hexbear.net, if you could handle it, for example)

    Does the Fediverse give you hope?

  • Yes! A bump for spritely!

  • What are some lesser known music genres that you'd recommend?

  • Math rock! The different time signatures are really fun, and it has a midwest emo feel

    Is there a "normie" or more mainstream instance for Lemmy?

  • It's a bit more like:

    • Capitalism creates the material conditions that promote fashism
    • Democrates aren't fashists, but they keep capitalism
    • The material conditions that promote fashism end up happening and fashism props up
    • Fashists end up getting elected

    The point isn't that the Democrats are fashists, but that they would rather continue support the thing that litterally empowers fashism rather than doing anything else. Kinda like a person who refuses to get vaccinated and spreads a disease to everyone else.

  • Do you mean you wouldn't allow children to transition? Because there will technically always be trans children.

    The difference is whether or not they get nigh irreversible changes by going through puberty and slowly watch their bodies warp into something they're not, or don't.

  • What do you think about having a custom URI scheme for the fediverse?

    Jump

  • That would be awesome!

  • It has been two years since the release of ChatGPT. How has it impacted your work or personal life? What changes have you experienced, and do you see it as a positive or negative influence

    Jump

  • I'm gonna be honest, I have difficulty with tone and subtext and still wouldn't use A.I. to write a personal message to someone. I just tell the person that I have issues with subtext and what I say might come up as inappropriate. I think true resistance comes in the form of accepting ways of communicating that are unorthodox.

  • Not much. Every single time I asked it for help, it or gave me a recursive answer (ex: If I ask "how do I change this setting?" It answers: by changing this setting), or gave me a wrong answer. If I can't already find it on a search engine, then it's pretty useless to me.
