What's the point of federation?
What's the point of federation, when we will end up having large clumps of users in specific communites under instances, where the owners of the instance can censor information, and enforce their political ideological false authory over everyone. If somebody doesn't agree they can be banned without any valid reason. Federation is censorship resistant only to large government entities. We fail to realise that the issue with censorship is the owners and admins.
And yes, we can meke new instances that support our beliefs and that doesnt censor our speech, but then again we dont have an evenly distributed userbase. Having duplicate communities is cojnter intuitive anyways because it will confuse users. Lemmy is a failed project in my eyes unless they find a way to resolve these issues somehow.
Bad example but if i start a torrent, then the people who seed will own just as much of the torrent as i do. I'll be equal with the peers without any upper hand. It cant be taken down or censored. Thats the idea i had.
This is not a smart statement. Im sure you figure out why. Try to apply the logic to anything you dislike some parts of.
You're the one who came here to whinge about this platform. I don't like tiktok, but I'm not gonna join it to complain about it.
Your first post here is to whine about censorship and ideologies on a new instance on a fairly new-ish platform. Personally, it sounds like you just want free reign to be a jerk without consequences. Online communities obviously need moderation or else they'll become usuable cesspits.
You must be really emotionally unstable geez. "If you dont like Android and have some issues with iPhones then dont use a phone (insert nerd emoji)"
