It's bad everywhere.
AMD Is awesome.
So awesome, back when their slogan was "AMD ME" i had that shit on my license plate.
i'll see myself out.
It's better to spread the word of "Federation" aka the "Fediverse" Lemmy/Kbin and whatever else comes into this format.
The real beauty is how well these systems can interop with Calckey/Misskey/Pleroma/Mastodon and PixelFed amongst Tumblr and Mozilla showing up.
Lemmy is just one thing - but the awesomeness is the variety and interopability.
There is some enormous potential opportunities on the horizon that we're well ahead of here. The real issue is, Reddit will have to join us on the fediverse or they will be history.
What we have to do as instances/admins/fedizens (whatever you want to call yourselves) is build the future we want. It will be quirky - but at some point that quirkyness is exactly what people want in the end.
I expect we'll see import/export like other fediverse tools have in short time. BUT.. unlike reddit/twitter/fb - if your server dies, you hop on another and you're still part of the "fediverse"
I'd also like to see "channel/magazine" relays here like we have on mastodon so servers can relay and fill the gaps in core channels nicely.
Users should absolutely have mute/block/privacy controls. These should be used to build the community they want and see what they want to see.
Users should not be left to "fend for themselves" against abuse/hate/racism having a platform.
A person of color should feel safe.
Women should feel safe.
LGBTQIA+ should feel safe.
BIPOC should feel safe.
They should be able to login, find their community and participate without needing to deal with DM's of lynchings, being publichly shamed with racial slurs. Power belongs to real community and real engagement, not abusers.
Dealing with a bad opinion is vastly different than platforming hate, abuse, or racist turds. These people who perpetuate this don't have any logic or reasoning to debate and defederation isn't censorship, it's healthy.
I've heard the inverse reasoning that the API is limited because of OpenAI crawling it - which makes no sense if CEO is part of reddit board.
I just don't care at this point ;)
Nonsense, their outlet is staying on the shithole instances, not forcing the rest of the world to see it.
They should have instead focused on fewer communities. If what they built was organic at all i don’t think they would have this problem,
but.. the lack of tooling is rough. We need mod tools, mod queues, mod bots, mod discussions and all that stuff
maybe one day..
