LOL you say that like any billionaires are “self made”. He was a billionaire who was closely connected to to elite people around the world. That’s the only reason this is such a scandal.

63·1 day agoUnenforced laws are just fiction.
Erm. Nope. They’re still laws.
I can say anything I want is illegal.
Sure but…that won’t make it illegal.

52·1 day agoProve what, exactly? If you can cite a specific crime, I can point you to the part of the law that proves that it’s illegal, but that’s clearly not your gripe. Things that are illegal are illegal, regardless of whether they’re enforced or not. The proof is in the law that says that it’s illegal.

3·1 day agoAll of these have significant tradeoffs.
You’re commenting in a thread about tradeoffs in Matrix so I’m not sure what your point is. Mine was that those particular tradeoffs don’t exist in other messengers.
So much so that i would not recommend them to normies
LOL what? Why not?

Do you not have these problems with Matrix as well?

Then .zip it is. For now. This is obviously a growing platform, but we should have a plan to decentralize for the future.

Okay, 1 app. Where is OP from Reddit looking? There’s no “Lemmy app”. Or “PieFed app”. That’s what matters.
I’m quite sure they prefer to avoid waves of new joiners
Then they can choose not to opt in.
