“cn, email, uid” was such a choice of Web 2.0 that confused the hell out of so many people.

This is the first one of these I’ve liked enough to comment on, and I really really love this.

Consider that three common core values of the Fediverse, and open software in general, are a propensity towards transparency, privacy, and decentralization. Literally everything Meta stands for is in opposition to that, including their lackadaisical approach towards moderation. If you look at our value profile, Meta is a threat actor in that regard.

We aren’t trying to find out what something new is going to do. A cancer that metastasizes in every host it’s ever had is likely to keep doing so, you don’t take a wait and see approach. You excise the malignance.

In this case, you surround it with walls until it dies on it’s own.

Heghlu’meh QaQ dajaj!

Qapla’!

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

The hell we can’t.

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

I think some mods need to purge their subreddits before noping out.

Right?! This is winning some direct support right here!

The devs certainly won’t. The main instance doesn’t get moderated… regrettably Lemmy doesn’t have the dev and community support that the other federated tools do.

Of course you don’t see any problems. You don’t give a damn about moderating, you only care about militant rights of folks to say whatever the hell they want to say about anything regardless of the impact it has on anyone else.

If you think the point of anything in the fediverse if for profit, you’ve missed the point. It’s federated, if it gets too many users to support itself, it will collapse into several smaller chunks.

The whole premise is built on the same concepts as the early web, it’s interconnected, it’s self-managing, and it will scale only until it can’t and then it will peacefully split.
