I understand that this is possible. If it were some bad community moderators I would just avoid those communities. If the entire instance is tainted then I wouldn't want to engage with it even if the instance is federated.

It's interesting they even programmed the ability to flag communities and posts as NSFW and turn it off in user settings if they didn't want any NSFW content to be federated with them.

Probably as good a time as any to depart from lemmy.ml.

If the devs / admins of lemmy.ml can't be trusted and the admins of lemmy.world are abusive then it is safe to say the experiment called Lemmy has failed. There is no recovery from the top 2 instances which make up most of the "content" are not worth supporting. I could go to another instance and block lemmy.world and lemmy.ml once the BE 0.19.0 update rolls out, but then the site is just dead. It's already pretty much like talking to the wind. but the site would be truly empty at that point.

I started noticing the trend of instances defederating into little islands months ago, but it seems obvious at this point that it the concept of federation isn't going to work out well. The easily self hostable part is still nice even if it eventually ends up as singular instances with maybe 1 or 2 federated connections that actually post things. There will be a lot of instances that have nothing, but I don't think that really counts.

Besides some obvious ones like The Last Airbender I think one of the worst movies I've ever seen was Knock Knock was Keanu Reeves. I'm somewhat surprised this movie was even made.

How would federation work in that case? Are they going to defederate any instance that has NSFW content? By their own definition I've found CSAM on lemmy.world and every other instance that has NSFW communities.

Might as well disallow all NSFW content if naked anime girls is going to be considered CSAM. Relating these two things is making light of a real problem.

I gave up on video games and never really cared for internet people content. So I read books and am always on the lookout for shows I might like. Many of which are decades old.

It might be difficult to adjust to the slow paced entertainment of reading, but once you go through a bit of digital detox it will become as entertaining as a television show.

It sounds like the latency is really important here and not necessarily the bandwidth. That makes sense.

After breakfast I would think. Any other time would be rather inconvenient.

I can already burn through my entire wireless data limit in minutes. What is the point in it being faster without data being cheaper? At least from a users perspective and not someone who owns a telecommunications company.

It would still be nice to look at how someone did something even if implemented poorly to make redevelopment quicker.

As for why people don't do this they might just not care or believe they will maybe get back to it again someday even if that is years in the future.

Whoa, Dave again? Surprised to see you here so soon,

 

Does anyone know of a digital picture frame product that is good, but doesn't completely rely on some proprietary service? I'd prefer not to get something as a gift and then in a few years it completely stop working because the company that produced it no longer supports it.

 

How many wiretaps do you have in your home?

 

How does Lemmy deal with deletion requests for banned accounts? There does not appear to be any built in functionality to make this possible which makes compliance with the law more difficult.
