Truly a site of the people
I really wish people would think a bit bigger. I hear “I don’t want regular people here/it doesn’t need to grow” all the time but don’t you wonder how much better things would be if the average person wasn’t constantly on a platform designed to enrage and exploit them?
Usernames are only unique within servers, just like with email addresses. there’s only one john@gmail.com but john@yahoo.com is a different person
Then there should be a single unified sign up page that sends you to a random instance or something. You still need an easy onboarding process for less technical people
really annoying that they used that name but don’t have the domain, lol
The problem is it takes time and money to do that, which you can’t really get without some kind of structure. I’ve been wondering what a tech cooperative might look like lately. All the weight of a company like reddit, but owned by the users
Thank you for the more thorough explanation, I’m from the US and not used to these kind of sweeping consumer protection laws lol. Does that mean Lemmy is also in violation? Does deleting a post on my home instance notify federated instances to delete it as well?
Ok? I haven’t discussed this before.
I find it hard to believe a court would decide that a post someone intentionally made to a public forum could be considered private information after the fact. But I suppose I’m not vary familiar with the wording of GDPR. It feels a bit like someone giving away business cards with a phone number, and being upset that people don’t return them when you ask months later. Obviously it is scummy for reddit to not delete content when requested, but that doesn’t seem to be the sort of thing the law is targeted towards
as much as I’m sick of reddit, posts and comments are not PII
It wouldn’t be LemOn party without him!
Would solve a lot of reddits problems to take that approach
Good to see we don’t read articles here either, lol
I don’t think that’s true. Obviously we all think like that which is why we’re here, but most people are still on reddit/twitter because they don’t care about any of that, they only care about the content/experience
whats the point of any of this if nobody uses it? Really don’t understand everyone’s aversion to a community having people in it
While I’m not a fan of meta, this would probably bring a lot more, less technical users to the fediverse
as an idiot, I tend to click around without thinking. You don’t need to understand what you’re doing as much with a gui. When I started using the command line I started having a lot less problems, lol
The difference is that the Navy uses actual Xbox controllers which are very reliable. The reviews for that logitech model are filled with connection issues, which of course makes people wonder if they were doing any validation testing on the sub at all
it’s the heritage foundation, the plan is called project 2025 and it’s all out in the open at this point
