Ya, never trust US companies. Their government’s crazy to jump in and take anything they want; you may not even know they took it.

A downvote isn’t “I don’t think this should be here”. It’s just “I don’t like this”, don’t agree, thing it’s bad/wrong, whatever. Up/downvote systems work under the process of the wisdom of the crowd, and as a result, works under the assumption that while the ways in which people use these tools and the reasons may be different, having a simply up/downvote system means they’ll average out into something more useful. It doesn’t work all the time of course, but it does work generally.

People just found it not unfunny or distasteful. This post is getting downvoted because it comes off as whiney and annoying.

The strange aversion to moderation by means of defederation.

I think what @deadsuperhero@lemmy.ml is trying to explain is that Mastodon and Lemmy for example may be able to implement Sup as a part of their softwares too. Currently if you try to DM someone on Lemmy, the options are a Matrix redirect, or Private Messages designated as not secured.

Though I do wonder about the viability of this. People would still need to set up with Sup to receive messages, at least as I understand it. As a result, this would run into a similar problem as matrix, just without needing to use a different federated server and login I suppose.

This would also require that project leads for AP softwares would want to accept the service as a part of their distribution, assuming it even is implmented in such a manner.

TL;DR it’s hard to say anything for certain when details seem to be slim.

Sup Bro?

That wasn’t your question.

No, it wouldn’t.

Didn’t really result in a loss, but a huge missed opportunity, when AT&T turned down an offer for them to purchase the early internet.

I have no religion. I have no real spiritual belief. The little bit of “supernatural” I ““believe in”” is conjecture beyond the bounds of the universe, and are more like “ya I think this is my best answer for things” or “what if?” rather than an actual belief.

Within the bounds of the universe, I generally subscribe to scientific consensus, I’m not nearly smart enough to really argue against people who’ve spent their careers building upon the theories of those before them.

To escape this person who I was born as, and who they’ve become. To find some peace, some tranquility, and devote my life to that. To feel something good without the depression radiating from the background.

Isn’t his name Linux?

On the flipside, the belief that someone with a formal education is somehow beneath you or brainwashed for it.

It’s a myth popularized by Walt Disney in a documentary where they made the claim and dumped a bunch of lemmings off a cliff into the sea to prove they did just that.

They main instances have taken strong stances against nazi shit. The Lemmy developers are leftwing communists even, and they run lemmy.ml, so I don’t think defederating from servers who’ll platform nazis is unlikely.

I’d like to see a GitHub clone for the Fediverse that enabled the cross-instance forking of code. The recent goings-on with the FOSS Invidious make me worry about the future of all open-source software that tries to allow us some level of privacy. Putting it on a distributed network would be extremely beneficial to prevent megacorps from bullying such projects out of existence.
