On Anna‘s Archive Front Page there is a book “Against Intellectual Monopoly”, I think it would give you an interesting perspective to consider too.

I‘m committed to decentralized social media, so for now that’s this and kbin yeah.

I hope though that eventually a better UI in some app can help with your disability, being physically ill doesn‘t sound like a good time at all.

I don‘t even think it‘s worth it for me to go and vote, just gives spez a click he doesn‘t deserve. Maybe best for me to leave it up to those who still give a shit about Reddit to decide what they want to do with their platform. As long as this instance is up, I‘m good! Ty db0!

Completely so nobody ever does it? No, there is no way. Though I think the goal is set more realistically like that to make it inconvenient and push it out of the mainstream as much as they can, which seems to be going alright.

I‘ve got one account on lemmy.ml and connect to beehaw through that but one of the first posts I saw there was a discussion on defederating from it cause the mods are tankies. It reminds me of Reddit already haha.

But yeah good advice, seems like choosing main instance is an important part of what experience one has in the fediverse.

Smart idea, I just deleted them, I bet my oldest would have fetched a good price. Ah well.

Thank you, that is indeed helpful, didn‘t know about the search either. Still all so hard to deal with cause as soon as I tried to upvote that post I had to login again and that is pretty much how I ended up with what is by now 5 accounts.

Well said, I actually got dinged a lot from automods using this word “kill” in various context for example one I remember well: “The Iranian government is killing people and wondering why they fight back?!” And DING I get whacked by the automod again for using a bad word. I mean I don‘t mind moderation, but that was so weird I had to self censor myself like “The Iranian government is acting in ways that end people‘s lives and wondering why they fight back?!” to get my comment posted. What a pain.

I‘m glad to have you too, the Reddit behaviour was making me nauseous and I was worried I couldn‘t find a good community to replace it. Then I discovered this instance and explored Lemmy a bit further, made some more accounts elsewhere and jumped around and it’s NICE! So excited to be here.

I have been wondering if I could use the GDPR like a bludgeon to get them to remove my shit for real, but it seems like a lot of trouble to go through when my comments were overall just random thoughts that popped into my head and nothing useful.

I would imagine too, but who knows, there is a different set of rules for companies and the rich.

Now that Reddit is asserting direct control over it, maybe they‘ll turn it into an anti-piracy sub to prevent any legal trouble.

r/piracy after the IPO: piracy is unethical as it is stealing from the poor (companies). This is a community to discuss how to stop piracy and become responsible and dutiful consumers.

They removed the mod (our admin) and are reopening it to stamp out the blackout movement. I‘m not going to go there at all, this is going to be a lobotomised version of r/piracy with some reddit employee or a spez loyalist scab at the helm—no thanks!

Haha what the fuck I really did NOT think they would do that to r/piracy of all things. Ah well fuck them and their shitty IPO. I‘m here with you guys for good, the structure of the fediverse suits our purposes and community better anyway.

Only one I know of is audiobookbay.se
