Serious concern and asshole move? Yes. Gpl violation? Not sure. You could argue you are not restricted to do whatever you want with the code you receive with a subscription. But if you share the code, they don't want you as a customer anymore and won't give you new code. I don't know if the GPL allows that.

 

I've been on Lemmy for 10 days now and I really enjoy it. The federation is really cool, but compared to Reddit it does have a downside: fragmentation of communities.

I think it would be really cool to be able to combine the feeds of the community Random_topic@example_instance_1 with Random_topic@example_instance_2 etc.

This could work well for reading, but I realize that posting is more difficult. So when posting you should be able to choose on what instance you want to post to the Random_topic 'community group'.

What do you think?

I don't know, this is a very consistent problem for me.

 

Hi, for some reason I can't reach Lemmy world communities through lemmy.ml even though the instances seem to be connected.

Lemmy.ml/c/vegan@lemmy.world gives me a 404 error while Lemmy.ml/c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world works fine.

Any idea why this might be?

Maybe get funding from the European Commission or https://nlnet.nl/

They do get funding from NLNet

I don't really get why. A well reasoned position I disagree with might discourage me to downvote, because I would like the reasoning itself. But why would downvoting something you disagree with be bad?
