Yeah, this shit's just weird all around. Don't ask for money, but swap the site to invite-only because people aren't giving you money? Calling it invite-only, but offering no path or conditions for getting an invite? Calling it invite-only but saying that it will at some point be open again? Giving no explanation as to when or why it might open again? If it costs too much money to be open why would it open up?

Just weird. Use your words, people. top-use-words

Seems like this person's main problem is that they went to lemmy.world, which does basically seem like a collection of all the worst redditors.

communism means no freedom / no food / whatever. anti-communist propaganda was a massive and very successful effort in the west

Some people are. This particular people has absolutely no excuse for such ignorance lol

The era of free streaming is still going strong. anarchista-chad

Yup, that's all blahaj. Beehaw was the one that pre-emptively-as-a-last-resort defederated Hexbear before we had even turned on federation at all

It's a fantastic resource even if you are personally kinda cringe. rat-salute-2

brother im gonna be real with you i think id never show up at that workplace again

my elbow had a small itch a moment ago, so i scratched it. the-more-you-know

the room with people in red shirts has suddenly decided to connect with the rooms with the less numerous blue and green shirts
think the red ones should simply return to their own room that they were perfectly happy with until now

go back to reddit. this is the fediverse, the entire point is that these are not, in fact, "separate" rooms. being connected is the default. that's why it requires a giant discussion to kick anyone out.

Where exactly do you see the invitation?

It was posted publicly to all federated communities and absolutely no indication was made that the majority of people to whom the post was sent were unwelcome to participate.

On Hexbear, we have a rule that we have to leave meta discussions of other instances alone if they want us to. All the admin had to say was, "lem.ee users only" and we would've stayed out. If you refuse to take such a simple measure to restrict discussion to your own community, you do not actually want to restrict discussion to your own community.

And the admin didn't. You can go ask him. He was not trying to keep hexbear users out or in any way offended by the fact that we participated in the discussion. Why are you (a member of neither instance) offended on his behalf?

ublock origin on firefox hasn't blocked in-player twitch ads for me in years. i just never use twitch because of it though emilie-shrug

But I haven't seen many lemmy.world comments there, for example

Why would there be a large proportion of lemmy.world comments when the thread is literally about hexbear? You don't expect hexbear users to have stronger opinions on that than lemmy.world users?

Please do. But don't, like, go somewhere else. Don't post up on some other website or erect a brand new website to house you. Just stop being here.

Imagine you've got 100,000 people in a room. Let's say they're split between people wearing blue shirts, green shirts, and red shirts. But it's not an even split. Half of the people in the room are wearing red shirts. Someone in a blue shirt steps up onto the stage and says, "Open discussion everyone: I think red shirts are assholes and we should kick them all out of the room."

What exactly do you expect to happen next?

Those instances need a space to discuss those goals among themselves, where the admins can communicate with the users, etc.

That's not what the thread in question was. We were invited to join the discussion. If we had not been welcome to join the discussion, we would have stayed out of it.

If you write something, you own the copyright, period. There's no registration process or anything like that. If you made it, it's yours, legally. And the only process involved to exercise your legal rights would just be proving that you're actually the one who made it.

Of course, none of that makes it certain that no one will claim it as their own or use it for something you don't want. As a general rule, just assume that anything you don't want used in a way you don't like simply shouldn't be put out into the public at all, regardless of what kind of license you package with it. If you're an average person and not a billionaire good luck exercising any kind of legal rights for intangible stuff like written words.

It is generally a good idea to include with anything you put out there some kind of license, which could be as simple as a .txt file that says "Made by [name], free to use for xyz purposes with abc caveats"

For a book stuff like that can go into the first or last couple pages that usually include all sorts of random boring information and publisher credits and whatnot

because "itter" does not share any sounds with "federated" the way "eddit" does

Can't live without it

Yes you can.

I say that, I'm going by every regular source that ever existed

"regular source" citations-needed

its near-impossible standards for leaving or entering

did you know these are imposed on them externally? their policy is that they love tourists. here's a video of a couple of australian tourists enjoying themselves there. the reason americans can't go there is because the US forbids it.

its lack of internet access (who here has seen anyone who is actually from North Korea),

it's a country under brutal siege for its entire history. yes, they're poor. whose fault is that?

But yeah, not eating beef is a moral issue I deal with. I mean, I don't care that I don't eat beef, but the fact that I eat pork and chicken but not beef seems to me to be weird. So, is there any religious practice that you guys follow to this day?

As an anarchist, I've been called a tankie so many times basically for expressing views left of Ronald Reagan. Why should one not be a tankie?

and Harry Potter tricks a slave owner into freeing their slave.

That happens in the books too. He only does it because the slave owner is a mean slave owner, though, not because slavery is wrong.

I only really use Youtube to watch like a couple specific channels and sometimes to look up music. I could easily fill that space with something else.

I think they should be [REDACTED]

what the fuck does that even mean? are you just typing shit? this is why people call you names
