Disappointing as fuck. You're defedarating based on ideological differences and a guess that they won't engage in good faith? And you're reaching that paltry conclusion after cherry picking posts?
Not to mention the posts you've shared aren't bad at all? They're literally asking their users to engage properly in a civil manner.
Big yikes man.
Perfectly ethical:
Content that is Inaccessible legally such as old games, abandonware, delisted media, banned stuff etc.
Digital copies of physical content you own
Digital Content that you already own such as ebooks or movies, but are restricted access due to DRM or single-copy rules or other dumb stuff. If I paid for something I should have the right to access it however I want (as long as I don't distribute it)
Gray Area:
Oooh same. I just opened RiF the other day, and the front page is ..... yikes. Mostly the drama subs are trending and making it to front page - and almost all of them are ragebait fiction a la AITA, and most of the crowd seems to be teens? The teens are the majority.
It also seems the alternate subs are trending more - r/ask for r/askreddit, something called TwoHotTakes is trending more than UnpopularOpinion?
r/all is slightly better but still a crapfest lol
Please God, I beg you all to do this. I mean no disrespect to y'all at all.
I have been using a bidet/health faucet/Jet spray all my life. I was so shocked and disgusted when I found out people in the west used toilet paper 🤢🤢
I've used toilet paper a few times in emergencies and I've regretted it everytime. The difference between water and paper in cleaning your butt is so vast.
I'm genuinely asking - is this a joke comment? This is the literally the same thing Musk and Spez made for Twitter and Reddit.
People invested time into their communities here, many joining here after seeing the loads of discussions and admin posts stating their intention to defederate as little as possible. Supporting the use of defederation for creating echo chambers is silly af, I don't wanna deal with toxic fellas but I also don't want defederation without any legitimate basis.
People are allowed to give their opinions on discussions here, the server admins aren't supposed to be overlords like the big social media and their CEOs - that's the reason we all moved here.
