I think deepfake porn is a bad call. Not only are you using nudes w/o the people’s permission to train the a.i. but you’re generating graphic content of people who don’t want themselves exposed like that

I would like to see darknetmarkets make a comeback. There really isn’t a way to find any darknet sites without being told about it. shoplifting would be a good one too esp since that subreddit always discouraged people from stealing from small businesses/encouraged ethical stealing which I appreciate.

I also think subreddits centered around conspiracies like pizzagate should make a comeback even though that doesn’t interest me personally.

I’m flippant on cringeanarchy. Before it was taken over by trolls, racists, etc, it was actually interesting. I’d like to see something similar but I worry it invites the same fate

When there’s no war, people like Hitler won’t have any opposition to their rise to power. Haiti never gains independence. We’d never have escaped feudalism.

Most wars are stupid bullshit and suck ass. The military, especially the US military, is the biggest waste of money ever. That doesn’t mean that war isn’t directly tied to lots of positive things like innovation. There’s so much medical, industrial, and geographical knowledge we wouldn’t have if it wasn’t for some war, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. People’s ideas will always conflict because different groups of people are going to have goals unique to them that clash with others

Now if you were to ask how to stop unnecessary wars, better more efficient rulers. Most of the people in power today are complete hacks. It’s crazy

But I don’t think we’ll ever get rid of war and I don’t know if that’s necessarily that crazy? Ultimately it’s apart of how we grow as societies

I’m honestly torn. Their points about it not having monetization make zero sense - there’s a bunch of shit on the internet available for free, the fediverse didn’t invent that. I also find it very interesting that they tore into the rough around the edges federating of mastodon without mentioning how smooth it is on lemmy, kbin, etc. Though to be honest I tried mastodon and it did feel kinda dead

To answer very literally, no. The water itself isn’t thicker, it’s the same. It is denser because the pressure is significantly higher, because the water is colder, and to a small degree because salt settles down

However I also wanted to consider what’s in the water so I did a bit of research and while there’s a higher density of salt at the bottom of the ocean there’s more bacteria and other small organisms higher up toward the top of the water. So if you’re only thinking about pure water than it’s the same but if you’re trying to compare water content it seems to be thicker / more condensed higher up

On Lemmy you can’t and I’ve gotten the impression they won’t be adding it either. You can on mastodon and plethora

Ah this response is great wish I saw it before typing mine am excited to see kbin updates, I’ve been tempted to move there from lemmy

I’m gonna try and answer your questions one by one

Let me preface with the fediverse pyramid. It goes projects (like Lemmy, mastodon, kbin which is what you’re on, etc). Then on all of these are instances which are like micro websites / servers. These instances host communities. You make your account on an instance which hosts all your information and posts, but you can interact with other instances

YES you can follow any community that’s made inside of an instance that isn’t your own. You’re on kbin so I’m not sure exactly how that looks for you but if I wanted to sub to this community for example I would put !youshouldknow@lemmy.world in the search bar

Federation is what allows these separate instances to talk to each other. If a community and another community have interests that directly counter each other, one might defederate with another. That means that if your account is hosted on one you can’t interact with the other. Accounts that aren’t on either are unaffected

No. Especially if they’re on the same project. I made this mistake too lol. Some projects are not able to post onto other projects right now, mostly because they update separately so sometimes they fall out of sync. Right now Lemmy users can’t make a post to mastodon, but mastodon users can post to Lemmy. I think kbin users can post to both

Also no, sorry. You’ll have to delete those extra accounts ^^; if you want to have different formated accounts (like how kbin has a magazine and Mastodon has a blog) you can’t link them. Personally I think of it like having a reddit account and a Twitter

Yes, you just have to search for the group like I said in response to question one

Any follow up questions just ask

mb, I’ll try to post more lol
