Несколько месяцев тестировал очередную бананку на городском #edc. И она оказалась идеальной под мои задачи:
- Во-первых, производитель сделал карманы-органайзеры - вещи не болтаются внутри, имеют своё место и всегда в быстром доступе. Внутренний перфекционист ликует.
- Во-вторых, сюда влезло всё нужное - телефон, ключи, документы, гигиена, техника и инструменты, при этом сумка осталась компактной, а карманы штанов пусты.
- В-третьих, двусторонние молнии дают вариативность ношения на любом плече или поясе
- В-четвёртых, сумка не выглядит как тактикульная, не привлекает внимания (но я поправил это патчем) и на рамках досмотра её не заставляют открывать
Не ожидал такого от отечественного производителя Техинком.

В Воронежской области учителя семи школ, следуя ложному распоряжению, организовали акцию «Шлем Отечества», в ходе которой сделали и надели шапочки из фольги — для «защиты от воздействия спутников НАТО». Автором розыгрыша стал белорусский пранкер Владислав Бохан, который разослал «приказы» от лица «Единой России».
Бохан объяснил суть своей шутки в собственной программе на YouTube: «По нашей легенде, злобные натовцы собираются облучать русский народ. Наши учителя должны научиться противостоять этому воздействию с помощью простых средств защиты, таких как шапочка из фольги».
Для усиления эффекта пранкер использовал старый бланк с логотипом «Единой России» и создал «приказ» через нейросеть, которую специально обучил «чиновничьему языку». В документе описывались возможные последствия в случае невыполнения указаний, а также указывалась цель акции — «укрепление патриотизма, повышение осведомленности и навыков педагогов в области гражданской обороны, умение использовать подручные материалы для создания примитивных средств защиты перед лицом угроз со стороны НАТО».
Акция нашла отклик в семи школах, включая Бобровский образовательный центр «Лидер», Криушинскую СШ № 3, Колодезянскую СОШ и другие. На видео, присланном из центра «Лидер», одна из учительниц назвала изготовление шапочек интересным творческим занятием и «важным патриотическим актом», символизирующим готовность защищать родину от внешних угроз. При этом она подчеркнула: фольговая шапочка должна стать «символом единства и стойкости перед лицом внешних вызовов».
ну а так-то пиздец, конечно. пиздец ощущаешь, когда понимаешь, что вот доходит до такого. что можно так ебануться головой, что надеть шапочку из фольги по какой-то шпаргалке сверху. это ведь и не люди даже, а какая-то квинтэссенция рабов.

ужас здесь состоит в том, что эти недоличности учат детей в школах. чему и как они учат, какой личный пример они подают детям - это большой вопрос.
все, у кого осталась хоть капля здравого смысла и самоуважения, из школ давно были выжаты или сами ушли, по собственному желанию. остались вот такие.
да херня это по сравнению с начальственным гневом. вдруг от хрючева отлучат? и дети же пострадают...

Why do people on reddit seem to hate Lemmy/Mbin/other federated link aggregators?

Yes, some instances are problematic, yes, some devs might have had problematic views.
I mean that's basically the crux of it. That, and some moderation drama, and the software being very buggy a year ago giving people a bad first impression, and Lemmy still being susceptible to spam.
It'll take some time before Lemmy (and the Threadiverse as a whole) improves its reputation and moves on from the "it's a tankie website" take. That said, a lot of people in that thread are making the case for Lemmy, so it's mostly just people worried it's not as popular.

The last 2 reddit userbase diasporas were wildly more different than all of the previous ones combined.
When voat became a thing everyone already knew ahead of time that it's ranks would be filled with facists; but it took a while for lemmy to earn its tankie stereotype and I'm also glad that lemmy's design helps ensure that it'll have more stamina that voat or any of the other reddit user digital refugee camp platforms that came before it.

I definitely avoided Lemmy the first go-round with the API fuckery because it seemed from the outside like basically just a tankie protest Reddit in a similar way to how Voat was just a neo-Nazi protest Reddit. To the Lemmy devs' absolute credit, they don't push new users toward any of those, though.
I thought one day after having had a Mastodon for some time that I might not have given Lemmy a fair shake, so I went back and ended up finding that most instances are basically normal Reddit fare but honestly less shitty than Reddit proper (there's a trade-off that posts are less frequent and that small, niche communities can attract unwanted attention by having their posts almost immediately show up in 'all').

I think it helps to think of it this way: WE are using THEIR platform.
They don't need mod tools that work for communities and users located on a different instance as much as say Lemmy.World since the devs/admins simply use the instance-wide ban hammer for their own space. Hence that is not their focus. You can go to the trouble to learn Rust, and then fight with them to get your modifications accepted or...
Actually, I need to modify my statement above: YOU are using THEIR platform, but for those of us on Mbin, PieFed (which I'm on right now, and two new instances just opened up including one now in the USA), and soon Sublinks will come too (January was at some point a target iirc?), we have already moved on. None have reached feature parity yet tbh, though even so there are a lot of features that exist that Lemmy itself lacks, so there's that, and being written in common languages should help enormously with them catching up.
So whether these are "as good as Reddit", well, beauty is in the mind of the beholder. It's not a clear win either way, but they are getting closer to being comparable.
Evan Prodromou and the Social Web Working Group (SocialWG) of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) are the creators of ActivityPub
Not desalines or any ML controlled group. All they did was create a Reddit like interface to the platform. After being driven from Reddit for their intolerance.
I sometimes post from Mastodon to servers running this and other software. In fact the reason I'm on world. Is specifically due to its relation to mastodon.social. one of the bigger Mastodon instances I use. It's got nothing to do with a software. If Rud and the other admins decided tomorrow to migrate the database to a different backend. I don't think there would be much outrage or many people would care. In fact I'm certainly probably will in the future. As soon as a back end is available that provides significantly better Community / magazine moderating tools. Since I will significantly whiten the load on server administrators. Since things can be done at the community level instead of at the server all the time.
Fair point about the ActivityPub protocol being an entirely different set of developers yet still the "Lemmy" software that you are currently using - both the backend Lemmy implementation of ActivityPub and also the web UI (unless you are using an alternate approach via an app, in which case that brings up a third in the API for Lemmy) - owes its ownership entirely to the same team that also administers the Lemmy.ML instance.
Yes, some instances are problematic, yes, some devs might have had problematic views
And the above quote I presumed to refer to lemmy.ml (and others like lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net; though that is only the beginning of what some people might consider "problematic" e.g. beehaw has defederated from lemmy.world, and the midwest.social admin has been caught banning people merely for downvoting their comment), since I recalled several discussions on Reddit (before the Rexodus) about the "problematic devs" which referred to the "tankie admins" on lemmy.ml (and worse yet lemmygrad.ml). Ofc there were other issues with other instances such as exploding-heads, but that would not seem to intersect at all with the "devs".
But yeah there could be problematic Mbin instances too? Though I don't recall ever hearing any discussions of those.
And similarly with PieFed, or Sublinks.
Speaking of, several places have announced wanting to switch from Lemmy to Sublinks when it becomes available, due to the back-end compatibility that is expected to have, when/if-ever it is released (January was some kind of a target date at some point iirc?). That includes Tesseract on dubvee.org, beehaw, and even Lemmy.World.
In the meantime, I have not heard any updates about Sublinks for almost half a year now, though PieFed is entirely functional today - e.g. I am speaking to you from it now. Though it's not terribly polished, e.g. I can no longer see your user- or instance name due to the way that comment replies are handled, nor any of the background context except your last reply to me and the OP, and quite often upvotes do not show in the proper color so I end up hitting it multiple times (upvote, oops the number went down, I must have already done it previously even though it wasn't showing in the green indicator color, so hit upvote again, then repeat the next time again, and/or with other comments as well). Though it has some REALLY nice moderation enhancement abilities - caveat: I am not a mod so haven't seen the actual tools, or even know if such exist. Nonetheless it is exciting to see those developments that have happened already:-).
PieFed features for growing healthy communities - PieFed
PieFed gives admins a suite of tools to take a more hands-on approach to gardening all the communities on their instance.piefedadmin (PieFed)
You can go to the trouble to learn Rust, and then fight with them to get your modifications accepted or...
Can you actually point to any instances of the devs dragging their feet on accepting changes or is this just conjecture? I've contributed to Lemmy, and plan to do so in future, and my experience is that they're fairly accepting of changes.
soon Sublinks will come too (January was at some point a target iirc?)
I wouldn't hold my breath. I keep an eye on the project Matrix, it's pretty quiet.
Piefed is much more promising.
Thanks for the additional insight:-).
The PieFed devs indeed seem very responsive, and I have great hopes for it too.
Though I don't know if e.g. Lemmy.World would consider switching to use it as they were hoping to do with Sublinks. For it providing a "social media platform" it is coming along nicely even if currently lacking polish, though from the perspective of migration of existing content into... well perhaps that's doable as well but I definitely know far less about that:-).

i agree. bending over for people butthurt about meta seems like a great way to limit your market artificially.
then again, i named my public instance moist
Wouldn't it also cause confusion for some people to say Threadiverse while other people refuse to say that and instead use Fediverse?
Ofc strictly speaking both are true.
Hehe, Forumverse? 😀
the threadiverse is a subset of the fediverse (microblog + threaded forums)
forumverse isnt a bad suggestion... doesnt seem to roll off the tongue though. im going to use threadiverse as its the value i want to see and i dont give 2 shits about meta.
One line of thinking that intrigues me, which you might be interested in as it relates even more to Mbin: at what point do we differentiate between where the content is located, vs. how we access it?
So like PieFed exists - I am talk to you from it right now - but if I were to make a post, let's say to !tenforward@lemmy.world, then am I posting on "Lemmy"? There is next to no content that is exclusively located "on" an instance running PieFed itself, so PieFed is my vehicle to access Lemmy content, in a way?
Then again, a better way would be to say that it was PieFed content, shared "with" the Lemmy instance where the community is moderated (via the ActivityPub protocol), and from there shared around the world, to whatever people are running to receive it - Mbin, Kbin, Sublinks, Tesseract, etc.
And all of that is still just within the Threadiverse, but how to say what Mbin does? Does Mbin access "Mastodon content" as well as "Lemmy content", or rather "microblog content on the Fediverse" as well as "threaded content on the Fediverse"?
I am not even sure what name the "microblog content on the Fediverse" goes by, b/c people usually say just "Fediverse", but also things like PixelFed (Instagram replacement) and Friendica (Facebook replacement) are part of the Fediverse too, so if "threaded content on the Fediverse" becomes "Threadiverse", then "microblog content on the Fediverse" is going to have to be renamed to something other than Fediverse too?
Since in the last six months Mbin doubled the number of comments made monthly, the distinction is becoming more noticeable - yet it is still 10k posts and 75k comments, vs. 9.4 million posts and 16.7 million comments from something running the software "Lemmy" (lemmy.fediverse.observer/stats).
Then too, if Lemmy.World switched over to use Sublinks (as they hinted at several months ago...), would most of this content (especially since ~80% of the Lemmy userbase is located on that server) switch from being "Lemmy" to now "Sublinks"? Setting aside the question of "what even is Lemmy, anyway?", my question to you is: what even is Mbin, anyway? Does it cross-browse "Mastodon and Lemmy content", or is it like a new, hybrid thing, b/c it doesn't just browse e.g. Mastodon content, but also can host its own microblog-formatted content too, shared with servers that run Mastodon as its software, as well as its own forum-based content shared with servers that run Lemmy (which can replace themselves with Sublinks) and PieFed.
Whew, this is getting complex!? No wonder people just say "Fediverse" and leave it at that!😛

i used to call the micrblog stuff the 'twitterverse'.. and i kind of still want to. I may edit my mbin instance to use that term, and i also hate 'magazine' in favor of 'Subs' or 'Community'
to me all of these server products are federating media servers with varying access to those 2 pieces. the underlying software should be nearly irrelevant except for them.
the 'community/magazine' is the source of the data and 'remote' servers cache that data. when i post to tenforward im posting to the source@itshomeinstance and my server receives a copy.. a locally cached version.
my server still has a ton of kbin.social content for example despite that server being doa.
i refer to my instance, at the moment, as primarily an 'onramp' server. my users utilize it to access remote content almost exclusively as you point out piefed does. But, my server also caches a huge amount of fediverse data.. both from all the lemmys and major microblog platforms mastodon, threads, and universodeon among others.
the specific platform lemmy.world utilizes should have no impact on me or my users if they do things correctly.
Twitterverse - oh that's interesting!😀
Irrelevant software - especially if forum-based (Threadiverse), user-based (Twitterverse), and other content (PixelFed/Insta, Loops underneath that, and whatever Friendica is about) were all to end up conjoined into a single "Feed" of whatever mixture proportions the user wants, that would indeed become a true "Fediverse"😀.
But until that time... some of them do still seem somewhat separate, though perhaps artificially so.
federation - I made a post yesterday, but due to federation issues it now sits solely on PieFed (viewable from piefed.social/c/fediverse@lemm…), and presumably is not available from any other instances as well (e.g. looking at discuss.online/c/fediverse@lem… I do not see it). That's perhaps a fine example of how the various vehicles that we use to access the Fediverse are distinct from the sources of content - although tbh that type of occurrence is nowhere close to being unique wrt PieFed, as I've had similar things happen with StarTrek.website and heard of many such occurrences with the likes of Aussie.Zone and Programming.Dev, etc.
Some instances COULD theoretically hold content - e.g. PieFed has a Local filter where people discuss the specific issues relating to PieFed software, as well as a trollyproblems community, etc. - but in practice, the vast majority of content derives from Lemmy.World, or wherever the particular community (or magazine) is based in. And this too is not unique to PieFed - e.g. my previous instance Discuss Online likewise has a couple of communities (e.g. !linus_tech_tips@discuss.online), but the vast majority of that instance is as a "general purpose" one that mainly pulls in content from elsewhere rather than holding it on its own.
So such "onramp" servers are common across the Fediverse - whether running Mbin, Kbin, Lemmy, PieFed, or one day Sublinks, that's just a property of how the instance admin chooses to do things, and the people who want (or don't want) to make communities there.
And yeah, if Lemmy.World switched from Lemmy to Sublinks, or to PieFed, or even Mbin, then it would cease to be called "Lemmy" (although other servers would still be that, like Discuss Online), though would still fall under the heading "Fediverse", and whatever mid-range term used like "Threadiverse" as well. Although people seem to hate that term and argue whenever it is brought up.
I totally agree though - such software details shouldn't matter, and rather it's the "content" that we want to aim at, however we end up getting there:-).

The people still exclusively on Reddit are on Reddit because they don't like the Fediverse or they're unwilling to change their habits. Had they liked it and been genuinely open for change they would have made the switch, or at least used both platforms.
This is not so much true for the average user, as they might not be aware of the federated alternatives at all, or they might think it sounds too hard. But it's absolutely true for the self-hosting community.

I'm on a pretty old version of mbin (I have some modifications I made for federation issues back when it was kbin). I need to spend a weekend to pilot an upgrade and make sure I can run it safely live.
But even then it's better in some ways already and I never feel like I'm missing something from lemmy. But I think just calling the whole thing lemmy puts off people that are seeing things through a political lens.

yep. as an mbin cheerleader, i evaluated both and kbin was better looking and perfectly functional from the start. no app required. no custom user-land css.

I don't get the hate against the lemmy devs tbh, they have their (perhaps controversial) political views but they leave everyone that's not on their site alone and it feels like they develop lemmy pretty impartially
sure they might ban you off ml but that's their site and they get to do whatever they want with it, just like every other instance
i mean network effect is a thing i guess but that's not as important on lemmy where there are usually similarly large communities about generic things on most major instances

Exactly .... it's also a double standard because reddit is basically a capitalist model of the same digital system but no one ever complains or criticizes it.
The socialist digital creators built something and shared it freely with everyone and also don't exert control over anyone.
The capitalist digital creatures built something and locked it up, monetized it and are using the user's efforts as the basis for the business only the owners make money on and have complete control over everything.
It's amazing because it's a fantastic metaphor for the two platforms.
Calling them "socialist digital creators" is misleading at best, if not an outright insult to socialism.
They are marxists-leninists who whitewash the crimes committed by the USSR and CCP. They support the genocidal invasion by Russia, a country that is neither socialist or democratic; it's an authoritarian capitalist oligarchy.
There is no double standard. You don't see the CTO of reddit running a subreddit dedicated to whitewashing the Pinochet regime and/or western colonialism in Africa or Asia.
Reddit is run by sketchy and corrupt individuals, it is possible that in a just world we would even call them criminals. Lemmy's marxists-leninists are openly supportive of genocidal actions and brutal authoritarian leadership. There is no comparison.

Bentley, 64, was a fixture in the low-level Russian incursion in Ukraine dating back to 2014. Calling himself the Donbas Cowboy, Bentley became a popular figure on Russian propaganda networks for his criticism of the U.S. government.Bentley’s wife, Lyudmila, then claimed that Russian soldiers from a tank battalion abducted him.
According to the Investigative Committee, Vansyatsky, Agaltsev, and Iordanov tortured Bentley on April 8, and he died shortly afterward.
Vansyatsky and Agaltsev are suspected of blowing up a car with Bentley’s body in it and ordering Bazhin to get rid of what was left of his remains.

With a further clarification that Muad'Dibber (who is currently an admin) is dessalines
Currently known as Muad'Dibber and Black Tulip, respectively, on Lemmygrad.'
Is Muad'Dibber not dessalines?
It’s a controversial figure, but it doesn’t mean that the dev supports crimes or genocides.
Controversial figure? Mao was a brutal dictator that directly caused an inordinate amount of deaths and suffering. He is no better than Stalin, Pinochet, Hitler or Pol Pot.
Since he runs lemmygrad, he most definitely supports the genocide of Ukrainians in the occupied territories. Before you start acting out, I'd like to see you and your family try and speak Ukrainian in the occupied and try and publicly oppose russian occupaiton. I think the example I provided with the “Donbas Cowboy”, Russell Bentley, should give you an idea of what life is like there.
And then there is also their support for the genocide of Uighurs in Xinjiang.
For you this is just random internet drama. I am not going to tolerate any degenerate LARPer shilling for russia and the CCP.
You judge people who support genocide, I get it and I here with you. But wishing death upon others because of their opinions? That’s just hypocrisy.
These are not mere opinions. These scoundrels wish me, my family and my fellow citizens harm in the most pathetic way possible; by LARPing online as marxist-leninists.

My bad, I didn’t know that! I assume it’s true then. Before the Reddit blackout, ML was a socialist-leaning instance (they edited the description of the instance), while Lemmygrad always were like this. It puzzles me why he might administrate both instances.
Mao was a brutal dictator that directly caused an inordinate amount of deaths and suffering
He made quite a lot of bad stuff, that's true. However, he also liberated the country from foreign occupation and advanced literacy, women's rights, basic healthcare, education, and life expectancy. China's population nearly doubled under his leadership. This is why he is considered controversial. It's strange to compare him with someone who occupied half of Europe.
he most definitely supports the genocide of Ukrainians in the occupied territoriesThese scoundrels wish me, my family and my fellow citizens harm
You made conclusions about his opinions yourself and are trying to argue against them. Condemn actual statements. I don’t see dessalines wishing harm on you, but I do see you doing the very thing you criticize him for.
It puzzles me why he might administrate both instances.
Come on now. Does it really puzzle you why he would admin lemmygrad? I am sorry, I don't buy this.

So you're saying that there is something inherent to Chinese culture that would not make it possible to advance literacy, women's right, basic healthcare without mass killings and brutality? Mao is a mass murderer.

Dessalines admins a instance that openly supports russia's (a country that's not in any way socialist) genocidal invasion of my country. That's not wishing me harm?
Does it really puzzle you why he would admin lemmygrad?
I'm just saying that it's a bit weird to administrate two instances related to socialism (they're the two oldest instances), but maybe he has his reasons 🤷
So you’re saying that there is something inherent to Chinese culture that would not make it possible to advance literacy, ..
That's not what I said. I explained why he is considered controversial. He did many good stuff and that's why some Marxists like it. Not because some of his policies were responsible for a vast number of deaths - that would be weird 😅
Dessalines admins a instance that openly supports russia’s (a country that’s not in any way socialist) genocidal invasion of my country. That’s not wishing me harm?
Sure, Russia isn’t socialist by any stretch of the imagination. From what I can see, Lemmygrad users oppose NATO and US expansion, I don't think they want Ukrainian people to die.
He is an admin of lemmygrad. A cesspool of degenerate LARPers that support genocidal imperialism.
Mao is a mass murderer and an authoritarian. If you support him, you are white washing his crimes. You do understand that good things can be achieved without mass killings and implementing an authoritarian, one party state? Difficult stuff, I know!
No, they support the killing of Ukrainians and extermination of Ukrainian identity. They support interment of ten of thousands of Ukrainian civilians in russian torture camps. They support the destruction of the Ukraine as a nation and Ukrainian cultural identity.
It is fair and just to want such vile individuals to get a taste of their own medicine.
The NATO expansion stuff is a ruse. NATO expansion is determined by national self-determination; especially when your neighbour is a country where a strong majority of the population are genocidal imperialist.
You do understand that good things can be achieved without mass killings
I never implied that deaths were necessary.
No, they support the killing of Ukrainians
That's a bold claim. Condemn actual people's statements. You're making a strawman to justify your hate.
NATO expansion is determined by national self-determination
That's the weirdest explanation I've ever heard 😅 You're also using the word "genocide" wrong. Genocide is a purposeful attempt to destroy any human group. In the case of Russia, that's just imperialism - they simply don't care about Ukrainians (sadly). Otherwise, any war could be called genocidal.
Then why are you white-washing Mao's atrocities? Surely, if you think the death and absurd brutality (cultural revolution?) is not good thing, you would support movements and leaders who don't engage in such conducts.
Come on now. Don't play dumb.
They openly support and cheer for the Russian invasion? Why would I not hate them for this?
Show me an example of them condemning russian atrocities. Just one. I shouldn't hate people who white-wash russian crimes and claim they never happened?
Show me an example of them recognizing Ukrainian self-determination? One shouldn't hate people who want you to be a colony of the shithole that is russia?
Where is the strawman?
One would have to be a genocidal imperialist to state that a country should not have the right to aspire to join NATO (especially if you border russia).
Try speaking Ukrainian in the occupied territories or opening a Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
No, you just want to white wash russian crimes and the degenerates at Lemmygrad.
For example, when the US invaded Iraq, did they do the following:
- Annex Basra and make it a new state
- Ban Arabic in Basra and send anyone who is using it to a torture camp
- Steal local children to continental US and force them to recite American national polemics
- Ban Iraqi citizens from using any public services in the newly annexed Basra and force them to get US citizenship.
Then why are you white-washing Mao's atrocities?
I never did 🤷. White-washing is when you try to justify or make something bad look good. I'm simply saying that he did both good and bad things, and some people admire him for the good parts. So, if someone likes Mao, it doesn’t necessarily mean they support the deaths he caused.
Where is the strawman?
I assert that people on Lemmygrad oppose NATO expansion and believe that the US is the greater evil. You claim that they wish harm upon Ukrainians. However, opposing US imperialism does not mean they want the Ukrainian people to suffer.
For example, looking at the upvotes on this comment from Lemmygrad's world news, it's clear that they feel sympathy for Ukraine. There are individuals, like this commenter, who suggest bombing Ukraine, but the comment is downvoted.
This is why I wouldn’t say that people on Lemmygrad want your nation to suffer. I don’t necessarily agree with their opinions, but they certainly don't deserve death.
But you are trying to make something bad look good. Mao is a bad person. He is a mass murder, an authoritarian. Good things can and should be achieved without mass murder.
Their opposition to NATO expansion is just another facet of their support for genocidal imperialism because they know that being in NATO makes it much less likely that russians will invade. The "US greater evil" is all BS. If they truely believed that they would move to russia or china. But they don't, they LARP as communists while stuffing their mouths with Big Macs and playing US-developed video games (in which they try to role play their imperialist fantasies).
For example, looking at the upvotes on this comment from Lemmygrad’s world news, it’s clear that they feel sympathy for Ukraine. There are individuals, like this commenter, who suggest bombing Ukraine, but the comment is downvoted.
Really, this is best you could find? You're really grasping at straws here. How is this a proxy war? Russian literally invaded my country. This is a russian genocidal invasion. If the Americans forced everyone in a hypothetically annexed Basra to eat tex-mex pork chops and banned Arabic and sent anyone caught speaking it to torture camps, you wouldn't call it genocidal imperialism? Just war, right?
I asked you some clear and direct questions and you come up with BS? Do you even believe what you are writing or are you just essentially shitposting?
We both know they actively support and cheer on the russian invasion. In an explicit and genuine manner. They want russia to be successful in its invasion of Ukraine. They want Ukrainian speakers in the occupied territories to be sent to torture camps. It is not difficult to say the russians were wrong to invade and it is wrong to commit atrocities and torture people (instead of just blaming Ukraine for mobilization).
Why should I not hate them for this? Why shouldn't I want them to meet the same fate as the “Donbas Cowboy”, Russell Bentley? Just imagine what was going through his mind in his last moments - must have a been a true moment of clarity. I want them to achieve that same that same level of clarity.
Can you explain this to me? You keep ignoring this point.
But you are trying to make something bad look good. Mao is a bad person.
No, you implied that if someone likes Mao, then they support killing. And I said that it's not the case - Marxists like him because of the good things he did and condemn the murders.
Really, this is best you could find?
You said that they wish Ukrainians death. I said that I doubt it and provided messages that prove my point. You made up their statements and are arguing against them.
Consider this thread as an example. Read what they actually say. You blame only Russia, they think NATO plays important role as well. But no normal person wants the war, that's what I trying to say.
you wouldn’t call it genocidal imperialism? Just war, right?
If the violence is the primary goal, then it's called genocide.
I also doubt that Russia banned the Ukrainian language or sent people to torture camps for speaking it. Could you provide a source for this?
Why shouldn’t I want them to meet the same fate... Can you explain this to me? You keep ignoring this point.
I answered a few messages above. I doubt that the devs wish harm to Ukraine or people in general. And even if they did, you would be no better than them 🤷
Of course, they support the killing. If they didn't, they wouldn't glorify Mao; a mass murders and an authoritarian scumbag.
Yes, they do wish Ukrainians death. They support the russian invasion and the russian occupation. The instance is rife with cheering for the russian army.
The NATO stuff is a ruse. Just a way to cover their support for genocidal imperialism. Ukraine was neutral ... wait for it ... before the russians invaded.
That thread is a cesspool of support russian genocidal imperialim.
Communists want the war to end and blame NATO for provoking and prolonging it.
This basically means we want russia to win to conduct more atrocities likes in Bucha. Just wild uncontrolled killing of civilians, rape and destruction. And Bucha is just one example that got in the news. There are mass graves in Izyum. Russians targeting civilians with drones in Kherson. Russians bombing a children's cancer hospital with cruise missile.
But no, NATO made them do it! And not a word about russian atrocities.
I also doubt that Russia banned the Ukrainian language or sent people to torture camps for speaking it. Could you provide a source for this?
You do know how to use web search, right? You're just going to say some non-sequitur about NATO and bla bla bla or that it's all made up.

That's not what I asked though.
We both agree that lemmygrad actively support the russian invasion of Ukraine. They cheer on the invasion and call for russian military success? Is this not true?
I asked you why I shouldn't hate them for it? Nothing to do with being no better them or whatever. I asked why I shouldn't hate people who support the invasion of my country and wish me harm?
Thousands of Ukraine civilians are being held in Russian prisons. Russia plans to build many more
Thousands of Ukrainian civilians are being detained across Russia and the Ukrainian territories it occupies, in centers ranging from brand-new wings in Russian prisons to clammy basements. Most have no status under Russian law.HANNA ARHIROVA (AP News)
Of course, they support the killing.
Let's see what they actually say.
Yes, they do wish Ukrainians death.This basically means we want russia to win to conduct more atrocities likes in Bucha.
Well, I’m not sure how you’re interpreting this from the link I provided. You just making up their statements. I don’t want to have to cite their comments every time just to provide a counter-claim.
You’re just going to say some non-sequitur about NATO
AP is a credible source, and there’s no doubt that Russian forces have harmed civilians. However, the claim that all Ukrainians who speak their language are imprisoned is questionable. For instance, Chechen is an official language in Russia despite two wars with Russia. Additionally, Russia provides citizenship to all Ukrainians, why would they imprison people for their native language? The article you referenced cites Radio Svoboda, which has ties to the CIA, so it's not a reliable source.
I asked you why I shouldn’t hate them for it?
I think my answer is correct. You’re accusing them of supporting murder, yet you wish harm upon them yourself. If you prefer analogies, it's like condemning murder while being guilty of it yourself.
I told you would downplay russian atrocities and come up with some CIA word salad. You've never been to Ukraine, you don't speak Ukrainian and you dare lecture me and tell me that russian invasion is not that bad?
Get fucked, you vile tankie! I hope the very atrocities you deny will catch up to you one day!
come up with some CIA word salad.
Sure, anything that doesn't align with your worldview is just word salad😅
tell me that russian invasion is not that bad?
That's not what I said, but whatever 🤷
Hope some day you chill and won't be that toxic.

I like !lemmybewholesome@lemmy.world, but there's less than a post a day to it. At some point it's up to us to build what we want to see in the world, which is harder when there are fewer of us - so if becomes a cache-22 where we need more people to make new content but we would need more content to attract new people.
And apparently mod tools here are inadequate, though hopefully improving.
Seems to me most people in that thread seems relatively open minded? The people dismissing Lemmy completely appears to be downvoted, and people seem to have a nuanced understanding that it's a better platform in theory but sadly less active.
I'm sure they're right. I'm a slow person who thinks there's plenty of activity over here, but if you're used to the adrenaline of Reddit it must feel a little small town-y.

As someone who used to be vehemently anti-lemmy, it's a few different reasons.
1) It's something new. Honestly is as simple as that. Most redditors are straight up threatened by new features, new looks, new anything. New Reddit is an example of that. To be fair it is hideous but it's also drastically underused according to reddits own metrics. This just stays consistently with everything. People prefer old subs to new, prefer old users to new, old memes to new. Why? Dunno. Could be as simple as just that they know it so it's comforting.
2) The propaganda that reddit put up against Lemmy was pretty insane. The first few mini-migrations set people up with weird expectations and a lot of them bounced back to reddit with weird notions. Some of it was based on shitty admins or shitty servers (cough lemmy.ml cough) but other things seemed to be almost coordinated against Lemmy. By the time that the big migration from Reddit killing off third party apps/API use a lot of people had heard one or two things and just started spreading it. Redditors often don't source material and just kinda spread rumors or 'feelings' or upvote one idiot who seems like he knows what he's talking about while blatantly lying. This has never gone away. The same idiots keep whining and being dismissive.
3) Redditors are hateful. Not purely hateful people or anything but the atmosphere encourages hate and division. I still browse reddit occasionally and I'll check the comments out about a post. It's always so bitter and angry, snapping out at one another. When every crab in the bucket is pulling you down, you get stuck in that habit too. Until you break free of reddit you don't realize just how bitter it's making you. Lemmy doesn't have those vibes and it can be really off putting to someone still in that bitterness. Kindness and people getting along almost comes off as stupid and naive so you just kinda dismiss the entirety of Lemmy as a whole.
4) This is a conspiracy but I'm positive that Reddit admins are purging a lot of references to Lemmy that don't show the site in a positive light. When the API shit was happening people kept pointing out that certain communities that were supportive of Lemmy suddenly got locked behind a NSFW curtain that forced users to be logged in to read the community. A lot of people talked about how certain posts and stuff were being removed, especially ones critical of Spez. I don't think they stopped that campaign and I think they still try to demonize the hell out of Lemmy. Could be because China has a significant hand in reddit now or it could be because Spez has a tiny dick and a tinier ego. Dunno. But I think they're weighting the scales.

Out of curiosity, what made you change your mind and give it a chance? Any breaking point on Reddit's side, or just boredom or a sense of adventure?
In regular migration studies there's always talk of puah and pull factores; reasons for wanting to leave where you are, and reasons for wanting to go to the destination. While I personally like it here, I guess we are currently depending more on push factors than pull factors to attract people from Reddit.
Star Trek.
It's not even remotely a surprise to anyone that I'm a dedicated Trekkie and have been for quite some time. Also not much of a surprise to those aware of the Trek fandom that sometimes it can be kinda bitter towards shows that don't fit a certain trend. I happened to like one of those shows and was looking for a place to talk where it wasn't just constantly being bitched about. I was just googling around and found Startrek.website so I set up an account on lemmy.world to watch stuff over there for a couple months before eventually joining that instance. My original account still exists on lemmy.world and it's fairly early in the run of a lot of things. I've also gotten a few messages to that account simply because it's a single first name that other people wanted.
Anyway I started posting Trek memes to Risa and it went overboard. Before I realized people were making memes about me and I just sort of stuck around. Startrek.website showed it's administrators to be flagrantly abusive of not only their power but also of just people so I set up Stamets on this instance. Rest is history.

Reddit 100% was censoring and shadow banning any kbin or lemmy mentions.
I wouldn't even be surprised if reddit actively promoted or even creates negative comments. There was a precedent of people abandoning Digg so they were clearly very aware and afraid.
At the end of the day it's impossible to tell with these incredibly opaque networks. It's even hard to confirm comment visibility as Reddit employs data fudging and shadow banning.
Just another reminder that nothing any closed source social media says should be trusted, ever.
- […] certain communities that were supportive of Lemmy suddenly got locked behind a NSFW curtain […]
You got that wrong. That was a measure taken by these communities to demonetize reddit. Reddit doesn’t put ads on NSFW subs. Any profile that posts on an NSFW sub also gets their profile switched to NSFW afaik. Moderators got banned for these NSFW tags.
r/PixelDungeon is the only sub that I’m aware of that completely moved to lemmy. Withe the main mod and developer of the most popular fork moving to lemmy. The sub is still open, but it has a "bookmark" called "Lemmy" and a "link" called "Lemmy Community" that directly links to the lemmy community. The sub is still open and automod responded to any new post that the sub moved to lemmy … at least for a year or so, it doesn’t post that any more.
And there are some obvious down sides. To my knowledge lemmy has not implemented flairs or post tags, which get used excessively by some communities to categories and sort their content. !pixeldungeon@lemmy.world fell back to putting text tags into titles like "[DEV]" and "[OC]" and then use the search for this. But that is merely a work around. The sidebar links to these searches, but since instance-relative links are not a thing they are fixed links to lemmy.world.
The search itself is still inconvenient, because you can just "search this community". You always have to explicitly select a community to search it and have to enter the search term before selecting the community. Edit: that’s of course only true for the front-end (lemmy-ui) I use, dunno if all have that issue
I doubt regular end users will ever get warm with distributed federative networks. A lot of people already seem struggle with email. All tend to flock to a few big instances. For lemmy you also need some basic awareness of these systems. You can’t find everything and to expect that will always go wrong since you only search what your instance knows and never for everything. There are great projects like lemmyverse, but you need to know about them. People who don’t know about them will either just not find the communities they are looking for or they’ll start duplicate communities. The problem of not finding something is smaller on big instances but also more fatal, because their duplicate communities will displace the ones that were started on smaller instances but did not federate well yet.
And everything, the development and hosting, is solely carried on the shoulders of a few volunteers. That will always result in instances popping up and disappearing over time, with development speed varying depending on interest and free time the developers have.
The biggest selling point is not to replace reddit but to be connected with the rest of the activitypub fediverse. That you can see peertube channels as communities here. That mastodon users can comment on lemmy posts eggcetera
No, I do not have it wrong.
There was a protest to mark things NSFW, correct, but what I'm talking about was something else. Kbin and Lemmy communities were marked in such a way that it was impossible to look at unless logged in. While logged in it wasn't marked as NSFW. It also wasn't a choice of the subreddit moderators. They were blocked by reddit admin themselves to force people to be logged in to see information on how to transfer to Lemmy.

The feel of Lemmy communities is a little different than Reddit, even if the software features are mostly analogous and there are many Redditisms used.
Your average commentor/poster will stand out more in a small community, there's less of being able to post and then slink away.
People have gotten used to a lot more comforting features of modern Reddit, Lemmy in both the users and in the software has more of a "Reddit 10-15 years ago" feel to it.

I can conjecture some things, though I can't be 100% sure on either:
First, maybe it's fanatics/fanboys that don't like competition making their platform less relevant. Second, it's paid actors complaining. Third, it's robot accounts making posts. Fourth, as proposed in the OP, people are getting the wrong impression due to noisy and problematic bubbles. Fifth, people being scared of leaving their comfort zone. Sixth, a mix of either some or all the previous possibilities.
The higher-score comments there don't seem to be particularly hostile to Lemmy. They talk about legitimate concerns like whether Lemmy as it exists now could deal with a Reddit-size volume of data, The top comment at this time speaks favorably of !selfhosted@lemmy.world.
Of course people who are still using Reddit are more likely to view Reddit as favorable or acceptable and alternatives as problematic, or not quite there yet. I'm actively Fediverse-first in my use of social media, but I still end up on Reddit quite a bit for niche interests because that's where the most people are.
Yeah there are clearly some toxic people who won’t tolerate anything different than them. They can be leftists or rightists who are gonna hate you for whatever reason.
I didn’t have this feeling on reddit to be honest.
And it’s a shame because I’m censoring myself because of this on some subject where I could bring another point of view.
Lemmy has in may places worse moderation than reddit.
yet this is exactly what the fediverse was designed to work around. giving the power back to the users. when .ml decides to block a bunch of shit due to butt-hurt mods, communities can be moved elsewhere without everyone having to make new accounts.
Number 1 comment is
Reddit ain't going anywhere fast.
If r/selfhosted has to rely on reddit as it can't be fucked selfhosting, what chance do other subs have.
I have found Lemmy selfhosted communities excellent, they are not a large as Reddit but there are plenty knowledgeable people, often seflhosting their own little reddit.

The irony of a self hosted community refusing to self host...
Honestly back during the API fiasco I was honestly expecting the mods their to make their own instance together. The fact they didn't blew me away
Lemmy has a toxic puddle problem. If your first experience with Lemmy is sauntering into a community and getting chased out for not agreeing with someone hard enough, something like that, you'll probably just go back to Reddit and say 'that place is full of whack jobs'.
And the default sort, kinda hard to dodge
What is the default sort on Lemmy.World btw - is it Local, or All?
For me without an account, it is All. Which means that they'll see all the tankie stuff, and most will immediately want to nope out (I'm currently sitting at 100% of every person I've ever told about Lemmy irl).
On the bright side, PieFed adds a warning label to messages on communities located on Beehaw (about their differences in moderation policies), and surely could do the same for lemmy.ml - in fact I saw such a message this morning (sth sth warning do not criticize China or Russia or you are likely to be banned - quite neutrally yet helpfully worded, very much to the point), though now can't seem to reproduce, so perhaps it's in testing.
I am not certain I can explain it, but for one thing they have defederated from two of the largest instances including Lemmy.World, bc they wanted a narrower range of experiences yet the mod tools would not allow them to keep up with vetting the flood of content from them and thus their userbase would have been "exposed" to it.
The mantra is "be nice", but I also saw people discussing literally murder of "others" who they disagreed with, like they voted the wrong way, or didn't vote despite being in a deep blue USA state or something. So I have no idea of what the criteria really is.
In any case, people report being banned from there at the drop of a hat, bc their mods are quite zealous. Which can be quite shocking to someone coming from a place that has significantly looser moderation practices.
So anyway the label I see for a post hosted on a Beehaw community says:
This post is hosted on beehaw.org which has higher standards of behaviour than most places. Be nice.
And then that link goes to Beehaw's own description of their own policies. I love this approach! It's quite friendly - it allows Beehaw to speak for itself, and rather than penalize the instance for being different, yet it addresses the interface between it vs. the wider Fediverse that is more used to content such as appears on Lemmy.World, which again has significantly looser standards (due in large part to severe lack of moderation efforts, which in turn relates to lack of development of tools that mods seem to consider sufficient).
Why is that tankie?
That post criticizes "any western leader" talking about human rights and shows photos of bombing gaza below it, if I interpret it correctly. It certainly is whataboutism, but I don’t see how it is directly used to justify anything else, even though that might be thought behind it and be more clear after reading more posts of that person. Though I’d rather use the Guantanamo Bay detention camp, since that’s a more direct human rights violation than supplying Israel with money, weapons and defense support.
I never said that that image proves that the originator is a tankie. For one, such content turns people away from the Fediverse, regardless if offered by a conservative, a leftist, a tankie, or whoever. Mainly why I included it is that it is an example of content offered on an instance known to have tankies. See e.g. feddit.nl/post/16246531.
What "makes" them a "tankie" instance is that they literally deny that the Tiennamen Square massacre involved any fatalities (and ban anyone from every community on Lemmy.ml, even ones that you've never posted or commented in) if you say otherwise. They are really quite open about it too - it definitely is no secret, though you won't see it immediately upon looking at the sidebar for the instance, so usually people from the Western world (which they seem to be so against in many of their more politically aligned communities) have to discover that fact on their own, then get disappointed (especially those considering themselves liberal and therefore a bit "left-leaning", not knowing just how far left the scale really goes, i.e. nearly every American is fairly right-leaning, when using the global rather than USA scale).
But more generally, if that instance wants to make fun of the West, particularly Americans, that's fine - do their thing - but then why is it so shocking when Americans get offended by that? All the more so when reading the sidebar of such places as e.g. Lemmy.World and Lemmy.ca, but then the content federated from Lemmy.ml's communities work according to an entirely different set of rules.
As we try to entice people over here from Reddit, it's confusing to them to have all these conflicting sets of rules and behaviors - e.g. in some instances people are allowed to behave as trolls, even encouraged to do so apparently by their admins, but then they also come out and do it here as well, where it is a violation of the rules.
Anyway, again, I'm not using that image to try to prove tankieness - that's already been established. This is content from tankies, as the person I replied to said "that place is full of whack jobs", and this whataboutism seemed a kind of illustration of that, not proof.
Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem
I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy's massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It's been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let's say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they're what's colloquially referred to as tankies. This wouldn't be much of an issue if they didn't regularly abuse their admin/mod status to censor and silence people who dissent with their political beliefs and for example, post things critical of China, Russia, the USSR, socialism, ...As an example, there was a thread today about the anniversary of the Tiananmen Massacre. When I was reading it, there were mostly posts critical of China in the thread and some whataboutist/denialist replies critical of the USA and the west. In terms of votes, the posts critical of China were definitely getting the most support.
I posted a comment in this thread linking to "https://archive.ph/2020.07.12-074312/https://imgur.com/a/AIIbbPs" (WARNING: graphical content), which describes aspects of the atrocities that aren't widely known even in the West, and supporting evidence. My comment was promptly removed for violating the "Be nice and civil" rule. When I looked back at the thread, I noticed that all posts critical of China had been removed while the whataboutist and denialist comments were left in place.
This is what the modlog of the instance looks like:
Definitely a trend there wouldn't you say?
When I called them out on their one sided censorship, with a screenshot of the modlog above, I promptly received a community ban on all communities on lemmy.ml that I had ever participated in.
Proof:
So many of you will now probably think something like: "So what, it's the fediverse, you can use another instance."
The problem with this reasoning is that many of the popular communities are actually on lemmy.ml, and they're not so easy to replace. I mean, in terms of content and engagement lemmy is already a pretty small place as it is. So it's rather pointless sitting for example in /c/linux@some.random.other.instance.world where there's nobody to discuss anything with.
I'm not sure if there's a solution here, but I'd like to urge people to avoid lemmy.ml hosted communities in favor of communities on more reasonable instances.
It's very hard to convince people that fedi is a healthy place when the default servers are incredibly toxic. I wish they would at least advertise it as such, maybe hide the default from the number one spot. There are several servers up there that accept users that are way more chill.
Also for new selfhosters making it easier to say "these are some problem instances that are commonly blocked, if you want to start out with them". I know that starts a new problem of "but then who decides" and it causes more splintering, but for a lot of posters it's overwhelming the firehouse of vitriol that comes in at first.
But gui.fediseer.com/instances/det… received 15 endorsements, from some major well-known/top instances, with such kind words as "popular with our users", and one going so far as to state "friendly staff; well moderated" - WELL MODERATED!? Tbf it did receive a single censure, and 2 hesitations (from places that I've never heard of before).
I was not here prior to the Rexodus - maybe it was (more) true then? Even if so, that info seems out of date. And then even if it is the singular instance for which that is true, that is still a fairly major deviation - e.g. the graphic that I showed in my comment above this was shared to both lemmygrad.ml and lemmy.ml, while others are shared also with hexbear.net. Banning lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net thereby helps but does not eliminate the "leak" that occurs when that identical content spreads out to the entire Fediverse via lemmy.ml.
e.g. the #1 rule on legal.lemmy.world/tos/ states to not perform "Attacks on users or groups", though I constantly see anti-Western nation attack wording and graphics posted on those 3 (maybe now after the USA elections it will suddenly cease, having already served its purpose?). For Lemmy.World to act as a delivery vector for that content, despite how it violates their ToS - how is that all that much different from allowing CSAM to spread, which likewise did not originate from Lemmy.World, yet if the latter chooses to allow itself to be the method of delivery to all of its users...?
Well anyway, thank you for your helpful addition of the link. Though I think there is more to the story as I outlined here.
Terms of Service
Introduction Greetings, the good people of the world! This Terms of Service applies to your access to and active use of https://lemmy.world, it's API's and sub-domain services (ex alt GUIs)(we, us, our the website, Lemmy.legal.lemmy.world
ARE we a healthy service though? Setting aside how any social media can be addictive, Lemmy in particular is incredibly toxic. It can be MADE into something that is far more tolerable, but it is not that way fresh out of the box, for a new user - particularly a mainstream one - who does not know what they are doing, e.g. how to block, what an "instance" even is (neither Reddit nor X has an equivalent), etc.
Blaze, when he preaches about the benefits of Lemmy on Reddit to entice new users to come here, mostly tells people to choose lemm.ee, and even specifically mentions the tankie issue for those who are worried about it, specifically regarding lemmy.ml. However, lemm.ee does not block e.g. hexbear.net's ChapoTrapHouse, nor does it block even the incredibly offensive lemmygrad.ml. I almost left the Fediverse entirely when I commented in each of those, and received WEEKS and WEEKS of replies (EACH) to what I considered an innocuous comment (e.g. "at least Biden lowered gas prices, which is not nothing imho?") - I could do nothing (that I knew of) to halt it. Nor, having arrived in them via All, did I have the first inkling of what those communities were all about, or those instances. I did not consent to that! Having read the rules of e.g. Lemmy.World, and coming as I had from Kbin.social, I was not expecting anything remotely close to... THAT!?!?!
So I understand why my irl friends have all absolutely refused to use Lemmy, and moreover give me a dirty look for even having suggested it. It's nasty. WE (who use Linux btw) know how to manage software, and can make it into something beautiful. But a day-1 noob with a guest or fresh account, trying to compare this place to Reddit, will not likely stick around long enough to see what we do.
As for the rest, I most definitely get what you are saying, and there are a couple of recent(-ish) posts in !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca that cover those topics in more detail, if you want!😀
Oh I've seen it - some people receiving downvotes between replying to me and me seeing their content, which I thought was odd so I checked out their post history and literally everything had been downvoted. Obviously that's a sort of troll attack (except one case where the person said that they were doing it to themselves, so as to imprint upon themselves how worthless those scores really are). Admins can see such and ban accounts doing it, but some instances allow automated signups so there can be an unlimited number of accounts that would need banning though, if someone were determined enough to keep making new ones.
But that's not what drove my irl friends away - that was content that e.g. made fun of the Western world & society, and which they considered "extremist", and did not want to see so they left. And as others have noted, if you remove politics and Linux, then other than Star Trek what else do we even have here?
A community, that's what. But that takes awhile to see, yet they were already gone.
Yeah whatever, that's a feature. Reddit became worse once it became a safe place for conservatives and center-right liberals to gather.
Conservative, TheDonald, KiA, red pill, et. all made Reddit worse.
I don't want a second Reddit. Can better avoid eternal September issues if they self select to fuck off
But I guess that's what .world is for.
A lot of communities on Lemmy have a 'scene kid' subculture and they will just harass people right off the platform for not being true enough to the cause, despite being for the cause.
You got a bunch of raindrops. They want to become a hurricane. They simply need a warm breeze but shit blows sideways instead. The corners of Lemmy where movements could be happening are basically mosh pits
I'm not trying to argue with you or correct you or anything, just pointing out why this is bad, how it shouldn't be as it is, but it's on deaf ears to the people I'm lamenting about. And you're correct, a 2nd Reddit would suck, but Lemmy could be better if those people were being better.
If there's anything anyone mad about anything in the world should know, by know, don't attack people on the same team, welcome them in
I actually blocked most of those groups but one was some climate community on another instance. There was a post where someone asked what they could do personally to help prevent climate change, and it was full of political theory as a response.
Someone said they actively boycott Starbucks because the CEO flies a jet in order to commute to Seattle to California, and if the government won't do anything they felt like the least they can do is just commit to never giving them and their lobbyists a single penny ever again.
And they were downvoted to like -20 and had a dozen people attacking them over shifting the blame from the corporations to the working class by framing it in such a way that the working class should have any responsibility for the actions of the corporation. It was like watching a bunch of picketers calling someone a scab.
And I'm just reading it like "what the fuck guys, you're sitting around discussing political strategies that have so far done absolutely nothing, they're doing something, they have a point, the lobbyists make the laws, so defunding the lobbyists does make a lot of sense. He's flying in a jet to work because people give him money, helllLLLOOOooo."
Someone even went so far as to argue that a lot of people need to go to Starbucks because they might need a quiet space to study or hang out, so I jumped in pointing out that most municipalities have a library at the minimum, and people were fine before coffee shops were everywhere, and I got downvoted and jumped on by half a dozen people for not understanding the plight of others.
Homeless people need somewhere to go, so I'm an asshole for suggesting that other people could go to Starbucks less? Beats the hell out of me
In some climate forum, for no reason other than to win a stupid internet argument over the responsibility of emissions, everyone began defending the necessity of Starbucks of all things. Seriously. And at the same time, consumers shouldn't have to endure hardships for the climate because they should instead focus on affecting policy, in order for places like Starbucks to change, because they're fucking horrible. In my mind I was just like "well are corporations good or bad, or at the moment are they just convenient as both in order to use that person as a punching bag?" but noped right out.
It was basically a rat's nest of tangled up incongruent statements that all led back to 'fuck that person for saying they make a very small effort to do something towards a corporation as opposed to attempting to reshape politics'
So yeah, shit like that.
Maybe a simple "while I disagree with A due to B, it does have some merit because of C. But in my opinion I think D is more effective, and if you'd like to learn more about D, here are some resources! 😀"
I'd argue that at this point, sticking to the collective vs individual dichotomy of climate attribution and action potential is climate action delayist. When your argument relies you or your group intentionally doing absolutely nothing to combat climate change, you don't really have climate change in mind.
Leftism sometimes cares more about class than its very foundation, the environment, to understand why there is a problem with blame-shifting.
I've seen this in a similar fashion in relationship advice forums: Commenters not engaging with the issue or person, but knee-jerk reacting with advising instant breakup.
sounds like a lot of conjecture to me. i think there is hope in groups owning, operating and funding their own instances. software platforms will get better over time. funding pathways will get better over time.
i dont think we should just toss our hands up and say 'nope, too hard. only jerks need apply'

What do you expect from a bunch of lazy T_D chuds, bots, and n00bz
Ha haaaa! Right? Up top!
1) the post already said why:
I would love to move away from reddit but it's hard when this is where the base of my favorite communities still exists.
2) further compounded by issues such as (a) overall lack of moderation, which further depends on (b) better development of moderation tools, and (c) guides explaining how things work, bc it can be fairly confusing, e.g.:
How do I find selfhosted communities on Lemmy? If I search for "selfhosted" I get one community (Run It Yourself) with around 3K subscribers and very little activity. Is that it?
Though someone answered (I think incorrectly):
I think the biggest one is 40k on lemmy.world and it's called "selfhosted". You must be on a Lemmy server that doesn't show that community for some reason. There are ideological rifts on Lemmy that can cause some servers to splinter like that.
Interestingly, from my old instance discuss online, I see no hits at all to that term among community names - discuss.online/search?q=selfho… - meaning that nobody from that instance has subscribed to it yet.
Which is why things like Categories of Communities (already fully functional on PieFed) are so helpful to guide people to what they may be looking for.
3) And I haven't even begun on the whole tankies connotation of moving here.
I think it's clear-cut that the selfhosting community on Lemmy is a perfect alternative to reddit.
No - apparently not, it's only clear to you, not them, for all the reasons listed above and likely more besides. We would have to build it first, before they will come... and even then I would expect a long delay. In the meantime, Lemmy MAUs (Monthly Active Users) are actively declining, whether they are returning their traffic to Reddit or not.
Besides other factors mentioned in this thread, there's also
- selection bias: people with a positive view of Lemmy already migrated, so the leftover is bound to have more negative views
- older userbase: older people use language in a different way, talk about different topics, and dig into those topics in a different way. That often makes younger people throw a tantrum.
- group identity: for those "AS A SNOO" we're basically apostates.
- edit: personal drama between higher ups is more visible here than in Reddit.

Older userbase makes this place a lot more useful, outside of politcs and news subs you are dealing with who can provide good information, ie how reddit used to work.
Drama has its place... it is provocative and it gets people going... we need more engagement! We are deff getting there too, meme subs were spamming all 1 year ago, now there is enough threads to keep a reader busy without fluff memes.
I agree with you that both things have their upsides; and frankly, I don't even think that we should be pandering to the immigration leftover wallowing in Reddit. Growth is good, but growth should never come at the expense of the community that you're trying to grow.
However I feel like those points help to explain why the "lol lmao" crowds hate this place.

I would never support banish anyone, just to be clear. I know that sentiment is popular around here and reddit.
Everyone within reason should be able to express themselves here that's entire point of fediverse being the front page of the internet, a proper one!
Younger folk do seem to self select out of place that won't an echo chamber but that ain't a young folk thing..
Just check politics on lemmy.world 🤡
Speaking from a third-world country, there are 2 main weaknesses the fediverse has for us:
- selfhosting is not easy or cheap for us, so we can only use what it's already there... And it's basically all in english, so most people are out.
- meta has everyone grabbed by the balls and people are happy like that (for some reason), anything new or different is met with endless excuses.
There used to be a mexican instance called Mujico, but they were forced to use a whitelist by constant troll attacks... But they also federated with grad so I can't feel bad about it. I don't know if it still exists but the last time I checked it had zero activity.

I am pretty sure most people are here for idealogical reasons so lack of things is a nothing burger for them.
Normies only care about ease of use and network effect. Until fediverse brings usability, we aint even compete for the network.
Normie here, Lemmy is pretty easy to use imo. I think the transition is happening now kinda like the Internet in the 90s or online dating in the 10's.
Ofc I just got here and I'm using Voyager.
A theory I have is that everyone who hates reddit eventually left leaving the milk bags brains. I was mod of r/mapporncirclejerk and left when I saw my mod queue get exponentially worse. My friend told me it was because the decent people left for Lemmy.
Now I'm mod of !cartographyanarchy@lemm.ee and it's sooooo much easier.

That was the first instance out there, so amany early adopter communities are hosted there. I've blocked a handful problematic users and all the communist stuff and other topics I don't agree with or care about, but by and large it's alright.
Hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml are instances I've blocked altogether.
For some reason after reading this (because I'm very new to Lemmy), your post made me feel like that squiggly thing / slime inside the box that wanted freedom, then the moment it takes a step outside, got punched back in and now is happily being inside the box, even if its cramped.
I think it was a meme too.
Yeah, but I do feel that way (after taking a look there)
It is. Go into your account settings -> blocks and at the bottom is a section for blocking instances.
I've got Lemmy.ml in there. You'll still see comments from their users and posts from users in other communities but you shouldn't see any of their communities in your feed.
Edit: sorry, I intended this to the person you were responding to. I'll send it on to them, but leave it here in case you want to know as well, with this message explaining how strange it is that I would be responding to you who is not on Mbin:-P.
Actually it is. I don't have an Mbin account but supposedly if you go to fedia.io/d/lemmy.ml then you should be able to accomplish it from there. It's quite hidden though, isn't it!?😛 More details in this post: piefed.social/post/307636.
I'd be interested to hear how it works out for you - like on PieFed if you do that, it blocks the users but not the communities, and in Lemmy it blocks communities but not users. I don't know what it will do for you, beyond blocking users - but like, is it similar to a full defederation in blocking the communities as well?

Ah, so URL link-type posts pointing to that domain. Have you ever tried it though - might it also block users or communities from that instance as well, even if it isn't obvious just from glancing at that page?
I would try it myself but I don't have an account on any Mbin instance. But if you are positive that it does not also block users - as multiple people kept telling me - then I need to remove that wording from my post telling people that Mbin can do that.
Sorry to hear that. It sounds like you would have to switch to PieFed (which can do it but the UI isn't as polished, plus then it can't also read content from Mastodon) or use an app (which I thought none were available that worked for Mbin?), or as you say put in the effort for every single community and annoying user who is trying to push their agenda.
On the bright side, you've done it now so henceforth it is merely maintenance:-).
Thanks for letting me know.
PieFed is odd in both having several features that Lemmy lacks - categories of communities, tags on posts, and most pertinent here, the ability to truly block all users from a specified instance without requiring admin approval (which neither Lemmy nor apparently Mbin offers) - while at the same time lacking in several fundamentals, e.g. user tagging such as @openstars@piefed.social generates no notifications, and the UI is highly difficult to work with for posts with many comments and especially deeper chains that are nested (there is no option to go one level up, the only choice is to start all over at the top level, at which point browser searching does not work when the comments are buried too deeply, as is our very conversation here).
Yes there is a request for a PieFed API. In the browser the display options are a List, a Tile, and a Wide Tile. Off the top of my head, Lemmy seems the most polished - e.g. there are many apps providing choices for how to access it - followed by Mbin and PieFed that each offer different feature sets.
Some of the communities are fine, but make sure that you never EVER talk about politics in any way. And even then, why support such a place that has such a reputation? Most communities - though not all - have counterparts elsewhere. Judge for yourself, though it's nice to at least know that you have options:-).
In fairness, people outside of the instance may legit be receiving the brunt of their more extreme members coming out from the echo chamber and talking shit elsewhere. Then again, why choose to be inside that echo chamber, even if the toxicity is dialed way down?
And there are answers to that question that may depend on your circumstances: e.g. !Firefox@lemmy.ml is by far the largest Firefox community across the entire Fediverse. Also the ire of people inside Lemmy.ml is mostly directed at the primarily democratic capitalist Western society, but you may not feel impacted by such as much, as e.g. they make fun of the USA.
Only you know what will work best for you:-).
100%. That's why it took me until the end of June to join Lemmy even though the blackout was on June 12th.
And I was already hating Reddit before the blackout. But FOMO made me stay and I feel bad about it.
I mean, read the post? They explain themselves pretty well there. Or are you linking it with hopes we'll brigade or something?
Lemmy hate comes down to two or three things: they don't like communists, or they're confused by it. Or they're waiting for it to be bigger.
Honestly, in my experience since I fully moved to Lemmy:
Almost any subreddit is more mature than any Lemmy channel.\
This isn't just number of users (but that's a huge problem that has been mentioned here a lot), it means that the chance you'll run into a mod who is a tinpot despot is pretty high, and there is nothing you can do about it if you're not willing to sit alone in a ~~ghost town~~ alternate community.

You only need one at a time. I use to spin up an entirely new reddit account whenever I got a ban on any sub. That's what you can do on Lemmy.
It has nothing to do with health. It is literally impossible to use a system like reddit/lemmy over the long term and not get hit with rando-bans that come out of nowhere and are completely unavoidable.
I'm not talking about getting a legit ban where you break the rules of the sub. In that case it is pointless to do "ban evasion" because you will likely repeat the behavior that got you banned. I'm talking about when you get a completely unavoidable and random ban. You WILL get those if you use a system long term.
To migrate to a new #Mastodon #instance:
1. Find a new server.
You can either use this great #tool by @TheKinrar to help you choose:
instances.social
Or the official tool (with a limited selection):
joinmastodon.org/servers
2. Create a profile on the new #server
3. Next, redirect both #profiles to each other:
.../settings/migration (Move.../Moving...)
4. You can optionally choose to export & import your data: .../settings/export
#Mastodon is pretty customizable to offer people many choices not usually available to users on other #socialmedia platforms. More choices also means more complexity ;)
Like on other platforms, you can also choose to simply make a new #account on another #server.
A lot depends on your reason for moving 😀

Термин обратная польская нотация (ОПН) получил свое название в честь польского логика Яна Лукасевича, который разработал польскую нотацию (ПН) в 1920-х годах. В польской нотации операторы располагаются перед операндами, тогда как в обратной польской нотации они следуют за операндами. Это изменение порядка записи и привело к названию "обратная" польская нотация[3][7].
Обратная польская нотация была предложена в 1954 году группой ученых, включая Артура Бёркса, Дона Уоррена и Джесси Райта, как способ упрощения вычислений, особенно в контексте использования стеков в вычислительных машинах. ОПН позволяет избежать необходимости в скобках для определения порядка операций, что делает ее удобной для программирования и использования в калькуляторах[3][4][6].
Таким образом, название "обратная польская нотация" отражает как историческую связь с работой Лукасевича, так и принципиальное отличие от его оригинальной нотации.

@akhil - какой интересный дизайн. У меня на памяти МК-54 - те же цвета, но классическая вертикальная компоновка.
А еще был такой Б3-21, тоже кажется с ОПН, но им можно было драться (достаточно легкий, чтобы носить с собой, но и достаточно тяжелый, чтобы нанести увечья)
@0 @akhil Я, с учетом того, что «память спит с другим», получил МК-71 «под ёлку» в каком-то из младших классов. Достав из коробки, поначалу обрадовался, но оказалось, что эта херня вверху — это не графический дисплей, а очень слабая солнечная батарейка. Запасного источника в нём нет, в слабо освещенной комнате он уже не работает.
Программирования тоже нет, польской нотации нет, но есть скобки, простые дроби и какая-то хитрость как считать школьные задачки без синсов-косинусов.
Служил верой и правдой до старших классов и даже позже, но не он, потому что батя-инженер взял «попользоваться» и проебал. На замену выдол какое-то убожество, не умеющее даже в порядок действий. Негодованию младшеклассника не было предела, поэтому пришлось покупать такой же. 😉
...А когда я решил подзасравшийся корпус спиртиком протереть... Краска стирается. Подумал, и стер все надписи (я ж их помню, и инструкция есть). А черные клавиши закрасил спиртовым маркером.
Троллинг «дай калькулятор» работал в старших классах все три года 🤣

Ну, в 97-х стали доступны ситизены аналогичного функционала, только быстрее и «вечная» батарейка. Функций было даже больше (53, допустим, вместо 47, и тоже дроби щелкал).
Но не было этого шарма. Кусок пластика с процессором? Ну, спасибо...

То ли IOMMU, то ли еще какой-то шаринг чего-то, то ли еще какая-то фича от AMD.
но почитал форумы и прилично так переплатил за Firecud'ы 530-е, когда сервак домашний собирал, именно по этой причине: дорогая рулетка выходит.

#3 Evan Prodromou (Social Web Foundation) - For a Better Web | Vivaldi Browser
In this podcast series, Bruce interviews people from across different communities and industries who, in their own way, are fighting for a better web.Bruce Lawson (Vivaldi Technologies)
The big question is:
What tool are you using to listen
I personally listen most on my phone so @AntennaPod is the obvious choice for me, being free and open source
Haven't looked too much for an alternative for desktop Linux but I guess any RSS reader (like the one built-in to @Vivaldi) should work quite well

Thanks, this looks interesting! Always happy to hear from @evan.
One request I have in the interest of maintaining an open web, is to please make it easier to find the RSS feed for your podcast. RSS is an OG open standard that helps keep the podcast ecosystem decentralized and outside the control of big tech.
For others looking for the feed, it's here: anchor.fm/s/fa587fdc/podcast/r…

Ну вот, подтверждение, что я живу в какой-то кринжевой версии реальности. Может вы тоже?
п.с.
Бедные алкаши... (вообще не жалко).

Вчера пил вино Fanagoria F-Style - российское сортовое красное сухое. Очень плотное насыщенное по вкусу вино. Давно такого не пил. Цена за бутылку всего 289р.
Да, кстати...
Вы ведь в курсе, что у нас рассматривают вариант введения заградительных пошлин на вина из недружественных стран?
в нас давно пошлины введены.
5 лет назад дешевле было доехать до Нарвы, перейти границу, купить испанского и вернутся. Цена за вино + бензин была меньше чем на тоже самое вино в СПб
В РФ пока ещё чтобы выпить хорошего вина нужно знать проверенные марки и фирмы.
Reduce maximum comment depth to 50 by @nutomic #5009
Goddamnit. I fucking hate paginating comments and would rather just fetch all the top level ones and control the depth based on the number of total comments. I also hate that they see the API through the lens of Lemmy-UI (IMO the worst way to interact with Lemmy).
I've got a laundry list of reasons, but suffice it to say that pretty much every third party client I've ever used has been miles ahead in UX and polish.
One example is that if the API throws any error response and lands you on an "Error" page (post removed, user deleted, etc), the whole UI is stuck there until you refresh the whole page (e.g clicking "back" updates the URL to your previous page, but you're still seeing the error).
I don't understand your comment. This is a fix for a crash in the backend, I don't see how it relates to lemmy-ui because it seems like any frontend would cause a crash with this issue if it's hitting the same API route. Also 50 is a lot. Finding a post with 50 comments is rare, finding one with a chain of over 50 in a row is even more rare. Such a thread would be clunky to display in the main comment tree anyways.
This isn't just a comment with 50 replies, this is 50 levels of indentation.
It's also funny to criticize Lemmy for being biased towards its own frontend when it probably has more (active and working) frontends than any competitor (Reddit, Mbin)
Looks like a small release, but has some IMO pretty interesting changes, like
Allow users to view their own removed/deleted communities
and
Add backend check to enforce hierarchy of admins and mods

Роскомнадзор начал блокировку сайтов с шифрованием ECH (Encrypted Client Hello) от Cloudflare.
Недавно Cloudflare внедрила технологию ECH для всех сайтов на своих серверах — это 24 млн страниц.
-Активное шифрование ECH нарушает российское законодательство, так как имеет возможности обхода ограничений доступа к запрещенной информации в России.
Пользователи в РФ уже начали жаловаться на недоступность тысяч сайтов, использующих ECH.
Роскомнадзор советует владельцам ресурсов отказаться от использования CDN-сервиса CloudFlare и переходить на отечественные CDN-сервисы.

Фотопериодизм — это способность растений и животных различать длину дня и ночи, чтобы предвидеть сезонные изменения, такие как ежегодные циклы температуры. Этот механизм запускает адаптивные реакции — например, стимуляцию размножения, цветение или зимнюю спячку.
Недавняя статья в журнале Science показывает, что такое явление встречается не только у растений и животных, но даже у бактерий. Авторы установили, что цианобактерии Synechococcus elongatus с жизненным циклом длительностью 5–6 часов могут предсказывать похолодания по длине светового дня, который на протяжении всего эксперимента был длиннее их жизненного цикла. После помещения в лед выживаемость цианобактерий, которые «росли» в условиях коротких «зимних» дней, была 2–3 раза выше, чем у делившихся в условиях «летних» дней. Для этого S. elongatus изменяли состав липидных мембран и заранее активировали специальные стрессовые реакции.

@th3rdsergeevich да вообще непонятно пока, что именно там произошло и юридическими ли причинами обусловлен отказ.
Пока конкретных ограничений со ссылками на документы не предъявлено, я это считаю инициативой и ответственностью местного начальства. Что примечательно, и что в треде упомянули, нарушающей их собственный Code of Conduct. И им, похоже, норм. 
Здесь должен быть мем в духе скайримского навыка "Community management" уровня 0, но мне влом его рисовать 😑
