At the same time that’s one of the bad parts of anonymous discussion. You never know if someone’s an expert or a random person guessing (on ELI5), engaging in good faith or purposely trolling, etc.

The other day I heard a random (young) girl say “what the sigma” and I had trouble keeping it together
Yeah smart kids can be very immature
At least on Lemmy, defederating is also a way of banning all the instance’s users from your communities. If you’re constantly banning one instance’s users and their admins seem fine with it, there’s really no other way.
If you’re defederating a lot, most of it will be tiny instances you got from some blocklists, so I don’t know if this really says much
I wonder just how big of a difference your place in the alphabetic order makes in general, because it appears everywhere in life
That + mostly sticking to my subscriptions (coincidentally, none of them tech or politics) makes it feel like I’m on a completely different Lemmy
Anecdotally, the communities I’m interested in are getting more active in a way that seems sustainable (as opposed to last year, when it was a always a single person posting some, getting no responses, and leaving). I’m pretty positive about the state of Lemmy and the wider threadiverse.
8 values has 4 different axes, instead of left/right
Unless you have mods that aren’t afraid to drive out the assholes
The correct response to my post should have been “that’s probably satire”.
Isn’t that what both replies basically say?
Similarly, it looks like a.gup.pe groups don’t work here even though they’re basically just communities
Would make sense too, they don’t use default Gmail either. Some other governments have Mastodon instances
Instead of defederating all of lemmy.ml, just blocking that one comm could be an option
It’s like the darkest pattern. Making it so that quitting has to be a conscious choice. I see why amoral companies would use it, don’t know why FOSS would too.
Neoliberalism =/= liberalism and especially not leftism (or just “the opposite of conservatism”), which I assume is what Colbert means
That easily accessible list exists, at least. For you it’s part of lemm.ee/instances
Or because the other instance’s users keep breaking rules. I guess even then there could be an option to ban them from all your comms but still show their comms.
“Hi everybody!”
I prefer to frame it as an HR opportunity
