Lemmy needs the option to block mirroring of content of NSFW instances seperate from the users participating in them. I need a second account now because my lemmynsfw is blocked from feddit.de for that. It is a bit of a clusterfuck.

Lemmy is a bit glitchy. Like how the upvote counts go crazy.

I think I mostly prefer desktop. I will check with the Android app.

That is a pretty big structural flaw of Lemmy as a whole then and is a stark contrast to reddit where mods of one sub never had to bother about what happens on other pages.

Thank you for the information. Also I just found out lemmy.ml blocked my entire lemmynsfw instance, shutting me out of most of the content. I specifically did that to show support for sex positivity and not for porn. Seeing the fediverse in general tries to shut NSFW harder than big tech at times. The old, free tumblr was great.

It is a very large instance though with different communities. It is more of a technical slog though, barely works.

No, this is over blown. Whenever visited before the large influx, lemmygrad was so big it made clear who this was for. But not on the technical level. Now it just is a reddit alternative, which also has some questionable communities here and there to be dealt with.

With the federation I would be careful without someone measures. Not sure if IP addresses get shared between instances, but I heard the E-Mail would.

If you use an account with the intent of staying anonymous, at no point you may ever connect it to a traceable IP. There is a chance the access history gets IP logged and authorities will trace through all of them.

I never thought YouTube’s business model was very sustainable. As the world economy goes down, so does the value of ads. Creators or consumers need to pay up for all the bandwidth and storage. The question is about what is a reasonable price. Are low tiers for $3/mo. possible along with premium 4k options or does everything need to be at more than that?

This is downright terrifying. A major escalation of the blackout and deleting your content - with the help of european law - is a nice response to that, if they do not step back. This is perhaps the most extreme measure to be taken, short of destroying the data center itself. An emptied reddit history is a massive loss of knowledge and perhaps questionably damaging for the outside world.

Fuck u/spez

Likely there is no way yet. Even the clean way to link back to your instance will throw an error, if the previous connection was not yet made.

It was a limited scale action to show the impact possible. If reddit indeed won’t move it could become indefinitely. /r/ffxiv already wanted to move it to a week or indefinitely.

That some will use the same username which can then be found on OnlyFans is fine. What is not fine is the way it works on FetLife. Women make a low quality post how incredibly horny they are, it gets upvoted and the whole ploy is to redirect you to their business. Primarily rules need to be focused to disable that.

I am wowed by the amount of information.

I would not agree with the general statement about FOSS. Some commercial products absolutely do edge out the free ones. And I am not sure it is only the limited funding, seeing the usability issues with Linux. I think Linus Tech Tips video series was a nice insight.

But for social platforms I do not even see a different way. FOSS is a must, especially with the inherent bias of algorithms. Commercial third party clients still could be beneficial.
