  • For Matrix you could also say "better than Discord".

  • I can understand defederating from Threads, but transitive defederation is bordering on insanity.

    This will do nothing but exert peer pressure onto instances that wish to remain impartial. Transitive defederation will play right into Meta's hands by fragmenting the Fediverse further.

  • It's not relevant to this post. That shouldn't be hard to understand.

  • How I bought Steam Deck OLED ~100% cheaper from Steam:

    Credit card theft.

  • Everything up until your actual suggestion is not on-topic for this community, IMO. This feels like a post that was created mainly to vent about the run-in you mentioned.

    Your suggestions will run into the same issues as democracy in the real world, and then some. For one, you'd need to ensure that each human person only gets to cast a vote once, and not multiple times through alt accounts.

    Additionally, not everyone might be interested in the mod election campaigns that such a system will undoubtedly incur, but for the purpose of upholding democracy they'd have to be.

  • That's one way to maliciously twist their words.

  • IMO you don't have to be shooting bullets to qualify as a shooter

  • It will be easier to sympathise with you if you explain how Brave has targeted you or impacted your life.

  • Probably because brave is kind of the king of advertising in the space.

    How is that relevant here?

  • Instance owners are responsible for the content that is mirrored on their instance through federation, so they definitely should.

  • But I think in terms of federated content, you cannot be expected to do more than send information about the deletion out. If other instances don't respect it, it's not the originating instance's job to police it.

    It actually is.

    When delegating the processing of PII to someone else (like another instance), you're supposed to initiate a data processing agreement with them: https://gdpr.eu/what-is-data-processing-agreement/

    Unless Mastodon has somehow automated this process in inter-instance communication, they are just as liable as Lemmy is.

  • In that case just append a unique string to your comments.

    As others have already said, including a Creative Commons license does not make a difference.

  • Your instance will still exist, and federation should continue as normal if you manage to reclaim the original domain.

    If you have to switch to a new one, however, federation will be very awkward. Other instances will essentially treat you as a brand-new instance, and mirrors of old content will be "orphaned" and no longer sync.

  • Firefox users will do all that and then wonder why Google is Mozilla's sole source of income.

  • What do you mean by "not that thought through"?
