    Life is too much. If you have time for open source other parts of your life are being ignored. Do you want to be a detail obsessed nerd alone in your room fighting with 50 different things that need a special configuration that you’ll eventually get bored of and need to clean up the mess anyway? I’m so depressed and am now realizing that privacy and open source stuff is just another distraction from reality. I genuinely don’t know how others manage in life, it’s so much bigger and more vast than a screen. It’s overwhelming.

    I think we might see one or more “trusted fediverse” groups emerge in the next few years, with instance admins making commitments to security controls, moderation, code of conduct, etc.

    So, in theory, the lemmy software could start implementing privacy controls that allow users to limit their visibility to whichever part of the fediverse their instance admin has marked as highly trusted.

    You put into words something I was thinking about earlier but better. The whole point of a federation is that every member of the federation is more or less on the same page. Currently it seems that federation/defederation decisions are being made on an individual basis rather than a collective one.
