LOCKING: the article linked is itself ok, the transphobic commentary is not.
I've taken a look at EH... there are some genuine communities that would be collateral damage from a full defederation. I'll leave the instance linked for now, but future posts such as this one with any sort of *phobic content will be deleted and risk full defederation.
For now, I don't want to throw the baby out with the bath water.
Keep EH commentary out of here. Will defederate then when I'm at a PC.
Gotcha. So its basically a large, decentralized overlay network...ie you can't use it to "privately" access clearnet content as you can with a VPN. Sounds like the headline is misleading.
Doesn't this make every user the equivalent of a Tor exit node? Meaning you'll have possibly dodgy traffic appearing to come from your internet service?
Boo. At least you have internet?
This pretty much. Also I was answering a question, there aren't really any alternatives. Open, manual approval or closed is it.
Manual admin approval for every signup.
Cheers, I think I will have a quiet drink or two this evening.

You did better than I did. I've modded you and banned him for 7 days.
re: claim of devs supporting genocide.. I've seen this claim made multiple times, but never seen it backed up. Anyone have sources where they have made such statements?
The Uyghur genocide is happening, as verified by multiple reputable sources.
