Fediverse

So, I agree with everything the other responders are saying. Whitelist the primary domain (and maybe a cdn domain that is hopefully nicely labeled) and a decent site should play decently. But it is also that I (generally) know when to pick my battles--or I at least keep my pointless battles to a small scope and fairly sporatic. I'm asking for a solution to this from the lemmy community, not reddit or a big corposite. They would want a single domain or a few domains for opposite reasons than making the user happy: they would want to control the user experience and ensh**tify via dark patterns. I do not think we should need to blanket allow scripts from dozens of sites just to see images, that's the scope of this mini-battle I do not plan to fight beyond this post. I mention ensh**tification because I just happened to see this https://thetyee.ca/Culture/2025/05/26/Internet-Sucks-Cory-Doctorow/ on this https://old.lemmy.world/?sort=Hot&listingType=All&page=3 (thanks, above suggester for reminding me of old.lemmy). So open technology like the web is replete with disenshi**ifying add-ons. Ad blockers are running in more than half of all web browsers in the world. It's the most successful consumer boycott in human history, but there are zero ad blockers running in apps, because you have to reverse engineer the app first, and that's illegal under use of Bill C-11 and under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and Article 6, the copyright directive. [Note, I censored those letters. I've been told you can swear on the internet, though.] One of my "old man yells at cloud" moments of late is when I have to deal with a very small company forcing an app down my throat when a website will do and the using of that company/service (and thus app) is being forced upon me by outside forces. If it's a small enough company, I will go through too many emails back and forth with their "CTO" telling them why it's a problem and why they should just have an app (a site that, yes, almost certainly would need javascript). Because that's the small act of protest some of us should be doing in my mind. That way the next time someone thinks, hmm, we could just do an app and only offer it, they'll then think, naw, there's going to be that one annoying customer, not worth it. Same with this issue, for me at least. I don't see why we /have/ to run javascript on secondary sites just to have a thumbnail and a resulting image. And I'm posing this, again, on lemmy not reddit. So, consider this my allowing myself a brief moment to yell at a cloud. [EDIT: Escaped my asterisks. I worried there would be automatic markdown, but I didn't see the Preview button.]

It won't get bad there it's the richest country and has direct democracy, CHF 5,430 post tax median salary. There's nothing for an authoritarian party to say to convince voters who are the wealthier people (actual citizens) of Switzerland Also the average assets for adults is over $800K they're too rich to fall to power hungry parties

She only got banned because she was trying to make it seem like the harm Kiwi Farms did was minimal. Which is an obvious lie, Kiwi Farms is one of the biggest hives of villiany and scum; they've done so much harm to those they didn't like for petty reasons. Particularly going after trans people and piling an unending torrent of harassment on them until they either kill themselves or go beyond the reach of Kiwi Farms. Proof of my claim that Kiwi Farms caused harm to the Trans community She tried to conflate Discord unknowingly hosting mass shooters with being their allies. (I noticed said something along the same lines in a response, as you were trying to take the heat off of Kiwi Farms, sussy). That makes me wonder if this account is a sockpuppet, but I can't say for certain, as there isn't proof of that.

Deal. That's not the gotcha you seem to think it is here.

Firstly, i want to start off my comment to state a few things. I am arab living in the middle east myself, so i am very biased. Look, i get where you're coming from; i do. But this there's a reason why we have such heavy disagreements. I'm going to comment on a few things, but know i'm not trying to come off as rude or accusative; just trying to discuss. (I'm going to assume by your use of "democrat" you mean people who desire democracy, and not a US democrat) And still we can’t stop fighting against each other? No one here supports the rise of what hates this great community. We should stand together and share the spirit described. We certainly do to some extent, but every time we don’t and instead of discussing start fighting against each other, the fascists will jump for joy, since we support their rise Well, genocide is naturally going to have a lot of fierce debate around it. We can fight zionism and fascism at the same time, we don't have to stop the world for each and every single issue and solve them one by one; we can try to solve multiple. It’s the ongoing war in Gaza Genocide* But let’s not do it in a way that makes fascists to triumph and us to peter out in an endless fight regarding this topic which we can’t really change. There are so many topics we could influence, one of the most obvious being to be a digital alternative to BigTech’s platforms. I heavily disagree. Apathy is just exploited by the enemy. Even if our total impact is small, it is worth it. Generally: The most important Usenet-rule for us: Don’t feed the troll. If it’s obvious that your discussion partner doesn’t want to discuss constructively, don’t answer. The most obvious trolls are those with accounts younger than a week (sometimes just insulting). If such an account appears in a discussion: Ignore + report. It might be a good idea to check the account age before discussing with someone. What seems obvious is to argue in good faith. Do not insult anybody, it won’t help you nor anybody else. No lemmy user is a nazi/etc. At least I didn’t see one so far. If you want to insult a lemmy user e.g. as nazi, first calm down, maybe wait some time before responding. If you still want to insult this user, it definitely is the better choice to ignore that user. Calling someone a nazi or insulting in another way is nothing that will help us in any sense. If a user actually advocates nazi ideas, it is a troll. If you want to start insulting: Don’t do it. If it’s a troll: Don’t respond, don’t feed it, just report it and shut up. Please (!) use sources. If you state something which isn’t your opinion or an obvious fact, don’t say “Uh, I heard it somewhere”, but name a reliable source. If there’s already an ongoing discussion between two users, only join it if you have something important to say. It’s not very helpful if there are four people discussing with one person at the same time. I wholeheartedly agree. What we should definitely agree on is the meaning of “Zionism”. The simple definition I have in mind is: Zionism is to advocate for the foundation of a Jewish national state (as a result of the Jewish experiences during the holocaust and centuries of persecution) and thus the approval for Israel to exist (which is one of the two conditions we need for a 2 state solution). That’s the most common German definition, but it doesn’t really fit e.g. the US-American definition That's debatable, since zionism is about advocating for an ethnostate. But your latter comment, it not fitting the "US-American" definition is false. It's the most widely used definition. Hell, it's literally the original definition. Zionism is about the Palestine region, not just anywhere. Why am i bringing this up? Because there were already people there. No matter what, they don't just have a right to establish their own ethnostate, claiming the land where there were already people of different ethnicities/cultures living there for an incredibly long time. This is afaik about zionism and i may be missing something. So, if i got something wrong here, then please correct me. What is happening in Gaza to civilians is fucking awful, and not the smartest thing for Israel to do, and some aspects of Israeli military activity may be are war crimes, and it doesn’t have to be genocide for it to be tragic. [As far as I know, meanwhile several international organisations like UN have declared it a genocide, so that part is obsolete.] "Not the smartest thing to do" is a bit of an understatement, it's a genocide after all Stop with the fucking history lessons about what the Israelites did, or what the Ottomans did, or what the British did, or whatever. IT IS FUCKING IMMATERIAL. There is a pile of dog shit in the living room. Instead of arguing about whose dog took the bigger shit in the living room, maybe focus on how we clean up the dog shit. The first thing that should be done first and foremost, is stopping the violence and genocide. But to claim history has absolutely no stake/meaning in this is wrong. We as Lemmy-users should act as described earlier, constructively discuss the topic. Middle East is one little topic we do not agree on in comparsion to all the great things we can agree on I'm sure this is worded wrong, but one little topic? There are hundreds of thousands of human beings suffering and dying because of these conflicts, It is not a little topic. This isn't a small disagreement to have with someone. That's it. Apologies if i sounded rude anywhere, it's 9pm and i'm tired

It is it's own instance that renders on lemmy as a community

Correct, it is mobile only. Unfortunately, I think I must be misunderstanding what you're saying about the op stuff. This is my view, The way I think about it, at least, these are all "OPs", ones with a plus sign next to the leftward arrow. Have comments. [image: 1fa5ffd7-96a9-46be-bc97-b5ddca82ebbe.png] And then if I tap, I get the op with its comments underneath it. [image: 9a02ba30-296a-4292-a091-0a3f5ebaca81.png]

This does not address the issue of choosing the server though. This only works if the standard option for your server is reliable and rotated per registration.

You may invit lemm.ee users and admins to check out PieFed and try it. Or set up an instance ? Even if there is no mobile app you can try its PWA version. PWA is a mobile website that work as an app. It works well. There is tag, flair, filter trump/musk...and each week-end lots news features.

a server run by indians also allows for better moderation of indian content

Oh no images? 4 dollars, maybe 2 with no space 2 or 4 cores and 1 or 2gb ram

OP is referring to this person and appears to be their alt.

I think this would be a great opportunity to get some of the work from Mastodon to feddit.org>comics_auf_deutsch But just when it's automated, that it's automatically send from Mastodon to feddit.

I have been trying to do that since I came here because you are precisely right google has become at best broken at worst an agent actively trying to manipulate you and reddit is entirely untrustable, keep doing what you are doing and don't forget to have fun while you are doing the right thing!
