Noted. Thanks for clarifying. I think he just wants to give his little pet project Agora a test run to start things up since he just set it up lol. I bet if it were a month into it he wouldn't do that.

Just wanted to let you know that you can mark the community as "removed" on your backend and it'll disappear from beehaw even if you federate to the the s.j.w instance.

I also wanted to let you know that The Dude created a "Greek Democracy" style system called The Agora. That's probably what he means by "review". He said a few days ago that anything important would be thrown there for the crowd to decide.

I have little doubt that by the end of the week the 1 or 2 users running TD won't have a home there anymore.

It is possible. Yes. This was confirmed in the sh.itjust.works thread on the same topic by an instance host. He said that you just have to mark the community as "removed" and then no one in your instance can see it. Except admins, probably.

That's the thing. You can't do anything but block it. Even banning is just blocking. It's not like you're going over where they live with a rifle and pumping a few rounds into them and their children. Defederation is blocking an entire server. Sh.itjust.works has like 6000 people. Defederating the entire server over one dude with 2 accounts shitposting for attention is a bit extreme in my opinion. However! This is not my instance, and beehaw is the most ban-happy instance I've seen, so I guess you do you lol.

revanced extended patched rif, so i still use it

I think that at best he'll just get bored. I think that what you say is the "at worst".

They mean that they think that humans in general are very bad because war and theft and hunger and greed and all of that. I mean there's a shitton more than that in life but yeah I think that was their point.

Not only that but anyone can join too. It's open registration. However, do note it's so new and small it's gone virtually unnoticed until now.

He didn't lol. Got booted out by the majority already. You can check out the thread. I think maybe like one person voted for him?

They do congregate. And they have already been banned. Lol. Their main communities are elsewhere. The TD instance is defederated. This is just some guy with too much time, thick skin and a bit of sadism trying to bother people with his ideas.

I was shocked when my longish name I've used professionally for years was taken. I'm literally the only Google results for my name. Why, random furry kid, did you take my username!?!? 😭

Yes. That's why good literature and good philosophy community. It helps think and read. Also music community for what I listen to. Collaborative playlist hopefully. 🎶👌

Same. I have a few accounts everywhere. Not on beehaw tho cuz too many defederations. I wanna read what my buddies are doing on Lemmy world and s.j.w and I couldn't from here.

I don't know that bug. Can you describe it a bit more? Not sure if you typoed there.

In this case it's more like there's an entire town with thousands of people, and there's someone who's on a walled garden yelling slurs, and the towns all around are yelling to close the doors to the "racist town because they don't boot that racist old man". Which in a sense is kinda like yeah maybe there's this duty there to boot the racist old man. But it's just one guy and everyone can just erase the garden from their existence with one button. If it were beehaw. No doubt, boot the guy. But unlike beehaw sjw is not the banhappiest instance, and seems instead like the banunhappiest community lol. So judging them by judging your immediate surroundings is setting too high of a standard.

Promote it on UK server and to people from Glasgow

I don't even use VPNs for torrenting lol. I use them only for either geoblocking or scrambling my IP address for practical clearnet purposes such as signing up multiple accounts. Torrenting is not prosecuted or even mentioned in my country. The only issue I could have is my ISP not liking my download volume and throttling for a short period of time to counteract my "abuse" of the network.

What mullvad fiasco??

In a sense you're right. But it doesn't necessarily mean it's the "same". If you have r/videos and c/videos, it's be ridiculous to think that the one on reddit is official and then one on Lemmy is a temporary copy waiting for immigrants. Sure, if you have no activity and people refuse to use it and it's a very specific niche thing, maybe you could argue that. But I'd say that most of the time, the communities here on Lemmy and on kbin are just as valid, just as true, and are their own entities independently of whether the users from the "originals" migrate en masse to them.

For example. I mod a music genre community. I just post music I like. If anyone joins that's great. I don't care.

I'm an individualist. But not ideologically. I don't mind if people organize however they want. I'm just gonna do whatever I'm gonna do and I don't care if people prop up free healthcare, empires or communes around me as long as they let me do whatever I'm doing. If they do interfere I'll just stand on the opposite ideology and pretend to be against them ideologically. I don't even mind if they make laws against me, as long as they're not enforcing them, because I can just be against the enforcement.

I am trained in nonstop content generation for steemit.com and Hive.io where being a spammer was the key to success. I would post 100 comments a day and 1 post a day because that was the maximum amount of posts per day. Now on Lemmy it seems my spammy instinct came out and I comment and post dozens of times a day on multiple accounts. 🤐
