What is this sorcery

[–] BuckRowdy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

even less reason to go back now..

Just shows how unimportant the company behind the interface is, they're just letting users create all the community and content and use their IP to take all the money, but the platform itself is of little value these days, when some random dude can create the exact same thing from his attic in an afternoon.

I’m glad he did it because it helped push me out the door.

[–] Deuces@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That was a trip. As simple as the UI is it somehow never occurred to me it could be copied.

[–] BuckRowdy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I used their original spritesheet when I redesigned the css for r/unresolvedmysteries.

[–] gimmemahlulz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This site feels like reddit from ~2010. IE back before all the monetization and add bullshit.

[–] The_Nostromo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah I'm digging it...

[–] superkret@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm amazed it doesn't feel like 4chan in 2005. Like, how is it possible that it's not full of spam and racism? I hope it stays that way.

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Shhhh they'll hear you.

Really though, defederation is the reason why.

[–] superkret@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can you explain why that makes a difference?

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Instance owners can have full control over who they federate with. From the start, the mainstream in the Fediverse has had a tolerant, open-minded and positive mindset. Over time instances that don't follow this (e.g. by promoting hate speech) are defederated, leaving mostly decent discourse. Users that try to join instances that follows the Fediverse ethics while not belonging, and try to spread hate, get banned.

We're still in early days but this will keep happening until the verse is wide and large, and you can choose your own little corner that aligns with what you want, whether that's more like what we have today, or the opposite end of the spectrum, but for now we get to enjoy to still have mostly only tolerant instances, and the nasty ones are defederated into oblivion.

kind of like when back in usenet days a usenet server could choose to not include certain newsgroups, such as someone not wanting to store all the data for alt.binaries.pron.hamsters on their server or whatnot?

[–] superkret@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I have the urge to give you gold, but you know...

[–] triplenadir@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

weird mispelling of "developers and initial server admins have actual prosocial politics instead of standard tech libertarian nonsense, setting the stage for effective moderation"

(defederation wouldn't have helped much if Lemmy was full of Nazi chuds when the reddit migration happened)
