Be the change you want to see in the world!

Also sub to smaller and more contrnt specific instances? Personally I have been having fun interacting with communities from my hobbies (most specifically manga) and at the end of the day that’s what matters most.

No no, socialims is when I have two cows and the government eats one of them (or something like that, I didn’t advance much in my theory)

Did it do something?

Not saying you are wrong, since it is currently imposible to do here, but I don’t think the federated nature of usernames has anything yo do with if they receive a notification or bot since over at mastodon you can tag people properly and they are notified.

I might be misunderstanding something, but you are talking about a tag (same as a private note over mastodon or a profile note in discord)

At least it looks that way because of this

Add the ability to tag users, so a title i give him will be next to his name.

What this user is asking is if you can write someone’s name on a post and for that petson to receive a notification that they have been mentioned.

Jajaja I thought about that while typing it out but I still dont believe this is about EEE, Meta hasnt operated with that mindset yet in other spaces from what I know and I feel this is more that a kneejerk reaction of people not liking big corporations associating it with the idea that big corps want to kill the freedom that these spaces bring to online communities.

But I believe in the design of the fediverse and the resilience of the people, I dont think that a few platforms hoarding the big majority threaten the entirety of the fediverse, as long as people can self host their own instances since we can ensure there will always be spaces for communities like this, even in worse case scenarios like Meta just having so many features that other platforms cant compete in those terms I still feel a niche of the same people that are building this today are going to stick with it, and thus we can keep this going even if we are forced to defederate at a later date or they defederate us.

Embrace, extend and extinguish.

It was a more common tactic back in the day for tech giants to destroy competition omfor open software specifically.

I am personally guessing it’s this option, people keep saying the idea is to EEE but I don’t think this would be the most effective use of Meta resources since they should be focusing yheir efforts at beating twitter.

Already responded, seriously, edit your comments instead of replying twice, it is really annoying.

Emmmm, kind of disingenuous. And by that I mean a lot.

First of all, who takes the word of someone at face value that they didnt commit a crime. One thing would be a confession, which you can of course still doubt if there are proper reasons, but a defense saying “what I did is not a crime” is useless in itself.

Second, he is being disingenuous here. He mocks the loverboy methos like it is a fake accousation with no meaning behind, seriously describing it as “being nice” is sick.

If you are actually interested on why it is condemned and considered part of traficking, read the part on grooming here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_trafficking

And here is a law firm article on the matter: https://www.carlsonattorneys.com/news-and-update/loverboy-andrew-tate

Seriously though, this clip is no reply. He literally deflects the accusations “I pretended to love girls to make ticktock for money”, no, that isnt the accusation, it was forcing them into porn by coercing them and placing them in situations where it is difficult to reject. The allegations are serious, one thing is to defend himself saying he didnt do it, but to try to downplay what he has been accused of (and even said himself he has done years ago) is sickening.

(psts, you can edit comments)

Here is an archive of his old website, which he has now deleted, I wonder why.

I can’t be bothered to search for the clips themselves, as I really don’t want to hear him talk anymore. But I remember a plethora of yt shorts were he described this one easy way to make money…

Out of context? Mate I’m not basing my reasoning on a bbc interview I haven’t watched to begin with…

“Without evidence” bruh he has described using the loverboy method himself, consistently for years.

And even if you were to say he is lying (which would be a weird thing yo lie about) you do have 2 rape allegations back in the UK plus allegations in Rumania, if you go and ignore it all saying there is 0 evidence that is on you…

You might say there is no definitive evidence yet, but that is just because he hasn’t gone through trial, which says nothing about culpability

Eow that suuuuree is some strong evidence that he hasn’t committed any crimes

POV: you see someone who doesn’t believe what Andrew Tate has said himself but is a fan

Oy, unrelated question, did you changr instances??? I can’t see the posts you made yesterday. Or did you delete them/were they deleted?

Also, must say, I’m quite enjoying your posts. It feels like a mixture of bait low effort trolling with a little bit of honesty behind and I just find it hilarious, so don’t stop (well of course until you get banned)

This wasn’t working, but then I realized you come from Kbin, I logged into Kbin and turns up you guys have this feature! It’s not on lemmy yet.

Kbin looks so appealing, but there isn’t an android app at the moment (right?) and I’m kind of growing attached to lemmy, but I probably will try to use Kbin more once I get an app for it.

Have you considered making an account there (or on a non blocked lemmy instance), especially with how most apps I’ve used allow for multiple accounts and changing with two taps I don’t think there is much reason not tp make an account in the meantime.

Agree with the sentiment, I don’t need it nor is it my thing, I prefer to be the one that has to do the blocking rather than mods, but I can see why it’s there.

I hate when people try to do safe spaces and some outsider looks at it and starts staying it’s authoritarian, an echo chamber, propaganda, power hungry admins, etc. Like, dude if there is a group of people that want to be protected from certain rethoric, it’s pathetic to act with indignation just because the don’t want everyone to interact. Not every community is about fitting everyone and being neutral, as long as they are transparent with it let them have their place in peace.
