I think asking other instances to remove too is reasonable also

This is big. Bluesky is getting lots of traction with normies who want off Twitter. Mastodon and pleroma and pixelfed all about to become much more discoverable

It is lemmy essentially. By far most communities, users, and a single point of failure in essence. That makes is quite good for getting it technically correct however, the best kind of correct

Reddit took many years to build that reputation. And earned creepy badges along the way. I’m not saying the fediverse doesn’t need to do it, but let’s not be in a rush. We have technical challenges, and a lemmy.world, and a .ml problem before we’re ready for the big leagues

And being niche is fine for now, email was tiny for decades

Jerboa, very Reddit is Fun like, on f-droid too!

All subreddits have power posters. The same 6 names show up far more than any other names. You need allies to poison this well, and these are your potential allies. See if you can get some of them in a private non-reddit forum (I dont advocate discord but it is likely easier). Step 2 is adding rules that enable enshittification. Cutting out rumour and requiring reputable sites. Recent news only. Text only posts must contain a question in the title only. No top level replies to own threads. Off topic chat not allowed. AI hating not allowed. I’m sure there are some more. Step 3: inconsistent modding. Apply these rules only to the non-six. Step 4: your allies then start declaring this subreddit dead and that other communities exist. Whilst they move to Lemmy too

I prefer jerboa

Great news indeed then, go Mastodon!

Lemmy has the same issues I believe. Lots of people not exactly happy with the two core devs either

Given the concern, it would be good to be explicit in the blog post. What other assets does it genuinely need? The code is open source, people are free to host instances

No mention of the name Mastodon and copyrights which I seem to recall is one of the bigger complaints

How much money we talking? 65 and spritely could well mean 25 years or more of marriage

Pay peanuts get monkeys

Undoubtedly the SNP are in trouble this election. Because MPs in Scotland really don’t matter. Whatever England decides, we get. Because of devolution the role of an MP is almost nothing too. Do ya think any MP can do anything about HMG foreign policy? Do you think Labour will grant Holyrood an independence referendum even if all MPs are SNP? It is an almost hopeless scenario for independence in Scotland at the moment, having been denied any democratic route. Turn out to be lowest in Scotland I’ll bet, which will appear then like a swing to Labour, but I bet it almost exactly corresponds with SNP voters not turning out this election instead

And this is a real shame, as the SNP have shown themselves to be the real opposition in the commons on many occasions. Labour and the Tories share almost all key policies.

A csv of kick off times (in UTC) and who is playing would be helpful to whomever takes this up

Interesting to hear flatter leadership leading to a culture of being heard and improved morale. I’d suspect with greater autonomy and success too. This will all be enabled by greater dissemination of intelligence I’d bet, and increased training. If this is a prelude to something bigger, there are some fantastic lessons to be learnt

They should have joined NATO

Anonymous complaints are a terrible idea. No wlnder this has been targetted

What is the most downvoted comment on lemmy? Would you like a sense of pride and accomplishment?

Fuck yes, networks of forums are fabulous, as we on lemmy have to all agree. Welcome to the threadiverse NodeBB!

If we are on the brink of ww3, which I doubt, then Ukraine is the first casualty it appears. The parallels are easy to draw, but hard to back up certainly as the specifics do differ. But those not aligned will increasingly find themselves subject to pulls in either sphere of influence, which is my main point. Ultimately you could argue this all is a failure of foreign policy for a few governments with Russia being emboldened to invade. Which you could also say of both previous world wars too. To dismiss the comparison is to dismiss history, and those who fail to learn from history…
