Right, so naturally in order for that happen the moderated side of lemmy would have to change to have some of that group.

Still don't get what you're trying to say. Seems like you're pretending you can't remember a lot of what I've said

[–] iloveDigit@sh.itjust.works -1 points 10 hours ago

My god, you’ve forgotten almost everything spoken about merely a few posts beforehand.

Me or god? Either way, I think me and god both remember pretty much the whole conversation. Unlike me, god might even remember the exact order it all happened in and exactly what each part is in response to.

I don’t think lemmy.world admins want to host child porn in the first place.

I didn't ask if you do. Why waste time typing that?

Like my assumption is that the reason they don’t is not just because its against the law, but also because they just don’t want to - because they’re opposed to child porn at a moral level.

I didn't ask what you assume. Why waste time typing that?

So this isn’t really a “pressure” if they happen to agree with the law, and have no problem following it.

Incorrect. Pressure isn't erased by finding someone who agrees with it. In fact, the kind of "pressure" we're talking about is social pressure, which can't even happen without someone willing to make it happen.

I said, when describing the ‘authorities’ of the Fediverse that it’s comprised of the users, mods and admins. You said I “left a lot out”. Who else did I leave out here?

POTUS, ICANN, etc.

Name a single website that ICANN has shut down

Weird how you keep begging me to do this when you have nothing to offer anyone

So what?

What are you asking?

Do you need “ask” for me to point this stuff out?

See below:

I obviously gave them as examples for where you’ve refused to elaborate on particular points.

There's your answer, looks like you're able to waste time answering questions nobody asked.

[–] iloveDigit@sh.itjust.works 0 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

It’s readily apparent.

Did you consider maybe that's why I didn't ask?

No, they couldn’t.

I think they could.

Only people who are somewhat familiar with the online geography of the fediverse could give you an overview.

No, pretty much anyone who's ever posted on the internet would give a good enough answer for me. "Type and click the post button" basically

You couldn’t.

I just did, but the better question still isn't how, it's why? That's the one I might not be able to answer.

So what’s your justification for using sh.itjust.works when it is also defederated from the same instances lemmy.world is defederated from?

Same as last time I responded to this question.

Why would you answering why you’re using sh.itjust.works despite it doing the same things as lemmy.world expose anyone?

Seems like you're asking me to help you look up "expose" in the dictionary, but you're also taking way too seriously the idea that I'd get banned from Lemmy for "exposing Lemmy insiders"

[–] iloveDigit@sh.itjust.works 0 points 10 hours ago (4 children)

The way you’ve broken up my quotes, splitting sentences apart makes it impossible to respond to.

I didn't ask. Why waste time typing that?

I’m 100% convinced all of this is a troll at this point.

Again, didn't ask.

You’ve split my sentences is to the point where they have no context, and it makes it impossible to respond to you.

Still didn't ask.

You keep saying “I didn’t ask if you did. Why waste time typing that?” when I directly to your claims about me made only a few posts back.

Incorrect. I keep saying that when you waste time typing random shit. You've wasted like 12 hours today.

So I’m just going to focus on one thing.

I didn't ask how many things you were going to focus on. Why waste time typing that?

I didn’t say you did “ask”, but you did accuse.

I didn't ask what you said. Why waste time typing that?

Here’s you claiming I believe some Lemmy Insider exists.

Yet again, this is a link, not a screenshot. I don't know what makes you think I'm clicking your links when I keep saying I'm not. I clicked one, did that ctrl+f thing, it was extremely embarrassing for you, that was enough for me.

You attempted to put words in my mouth

incorrect

and claimed I thought some “Lemmy Insider” would ban you.

Incorrect because the "and" makes it seem like I also attempted to put words in your mouth, when the part I actually did was claimed you thought some "Lemmy insider" would ban me.

The Fediverse is not commonly understood as you understand it.

True, unless you mean it's not commonly understood as I understand the common understanding.

I’m making fun of your claim that replying to your replies constitutes harassment.

What makes it my claim when it's not a claim I made?

So I’m not harassing you, but I would apparently harass other people who agree with you if you named them to me?

Right. I'm also prepared for the possibility you will start harassing me in the very near future. Why do you need me to explain your own behavior to you?

So you can’t.

Incorrect.

As usual.

Adding "as usual" to something doesn't make it correct (or, indeed, usual).

You have insulted me, I have not insulted you back.

Incorrect. Repeating yourself doesn't make it true. Doesn't even make it seem true. You might want to try deleting or editing comments, if that will be enough to hide them from mods/admins. Or just keep lying, if this place is actually corrupt enough for lying to yield worthwhile results on its own. Personally, I recommend you come clean, apologize to me, and seek professional help.

[–] iloveDigit@sh.itjust.works 0 points 10 hours ago (5 children)

You think people disagreeing with you in a forum means you can’t safely have a home server instance.

Incorrect.

That is utterly pathetic.

It is pathetic of you to keep making shit up like that.

And you unironically did compare your supposed victimisation here with that of political dissidents.

Again, this is a link, not a screenshot. You keep wasting time posting links I keep telling you I'm not clicking.

Me: “People targeting you (replying to you) in this thread isn’t the same thing as the state or some other authority somehow targeting you.”

You: “Incorrect. The authorities are just people.”

These are quotes prefaced with "me:" and "you:" suggesting you're just recapping part of the conversation again. Why? Would this be worth my time to read?

[–] iloveDigit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago (8 children)

Yes you did.

This is a link, not a screenshot. Why waste time posting a link instead of a screenshot when I haven't really been clicking your links?

“And in terms of instances, an instance owner can absolutely choose the theme of their instance.”

“Incorrect. Federation broken, which prevents this. How many times do I have to say this?”

These are sentences in quotation marks. Not reading them. Is there a reason they're here?

Simply replying to me doesn’t mean you actually substantially answer my points.

I didn't ask if it did. Why waste time typing that?

So why would you expect me to just concur with your claims when you refuse to back them up?

For a second time I tell you, I'm not really into riddles.

[–] iloveDigit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Didn’t ask.

Didn't ask if you asked.

Why waste time?

You tell me, you're the one that keeps doing it.

Are you of the opinion that when I said “crying” there I literally thought you were in tears at your keyboard?

Nope. Are you still pretending my straightforwardness makes it hard to believe I can understand euphemisms? (Rhetorical question, obviously you are)

You mentioned Hamas.ps first. The timeline shows this. Here is the link.

Is there a point here?

You genuinely forgot that was what I posted to you?

Forgot what?

[–] iloveDigit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago

No, I didn’t.

I don't think I'd say you did something you didn't do.

So yet more insults. Reported.

Didn't ask.

 

I've been trying Lemmy for a little while and wasn't sure how to feel about it.

Today, I wanted to start blocking the most high-censorship instances until I could find a fully zero-censorship instance and simply block all the ones with censorship. Filter bots, not people.

When I looked into it further, I found out there are no zero-censorship instances, because Lemmy relies on a broken "federation" system where each instance is supposed to be able to fetch posts from other instances, but it's never been finished to reach a fully working state. Lemmy's official docs say you can't even do federation over Tor at all. This means it uses DNS, so it won't actually allow Lemmy instances to fetch posts from each other freely, it just gets blocked instantly and easily, every time the authorities feel like blocking anything.

So you can only ever have the "average joe lemmy" and "average joe reddit" with everything approved by the authorities, and then "tor copies of lemmy" and "tor copies of reddit" where you have free speech but you can only reach other nerds.

People seem to think Lemmy is different because this weird censorship fetish is extremely popular and most of you are happy to see bans happen to certain people, not just bots, so a small Lemmy that censors certain people feels fundamentally different from a big reddit that censors more people. But it's the exact same thing, it's reddit.

When reddit was smaller, you could say basically anything you wanted there, they just wouldn't let it reach the main audience. Then it got too big, and any tiny part of the audience you could reach would be too big, so they won't let you talk at all.

Lemmy is now the small part of reddit where you can say whatever you want, separated from the main audience, until too much growth happens and you have to move again.

It's not actually a solution to reddit. It's not designed to be different, it's designed to match the past today and then match reddit's present tomorrow, while being part of a system that's about the same in past, present, and future.

Last year, this year, and next year, you're posting somewhere it won't be seen by many people, and the system that charges people for ambulance rides is getting another year of ambulance ride revenue, facing no organized resistance. There's no difference here.

Lemmy urgently needs federation between onion service instances and DNS addresses in order to actually do what most users seem to wish it would do: allow discussion outside what the corporate authorities allow, while outgrowing reddit & helping undo the damage social media has done to human communication.
