See I use comedy panel shows for both entertainment as well as keeping up with daily affairs.

Well in that case my daddy was Joseph Stalin's gardener.

Since all claims on the internet are true, obviously my arguments are now just as strong as yours.

Just wondering if you'd bring any more argument to the discussion. Maybe some insight for us laypeople?

It's honestly more about the reddit-like drama it seems to create.

Funnily enough, this post kind of does the same and I am well aware of the irony in that.

Sounds like this whole Federation thing is going well huh

unfortunately for me I’ve been “blessed” of being born in comunism.

Alright enlighten us; when and where?

Alright let's check back in a year or so and see if either becomes true though.

And can you see how that could end up with a) all users shouting into their own personal void or b) a few big instances filled with complacent users mindlessly consuming what the algorithm feeds them?

No need to start insulting me mate.

Nah. That’s getting into arsehole filter territory

our opinions on what constitutes an arsehole might differ.

I have zero interest in spending that much time wading through crap

I have zero interest in keeping track of several accounts across several instances because someone upstairs doesn't like something posted on one of them.

I don't see how that would be impacted by user-based choice instead of mod-based choice.

it shouldn't be hard to see how that's a bad solution.

Like a supermarket stops selling yoghurt because the manager doesn't like it so now they tell you to just have cream cheese for breakfast.

See that's where I think we're getting into admin drama territory

I don't mind seeing certain instances, but if the almighty mods decree it, we have to cut off all contact.

See that's why it would be nice to be able to block them and not have to rely on those above to decide that for us.

what?

I’m all for user freedom but some users don’t want freedom

also that's what facebook is for.

I'd rather have that than massive instances with communities for things like fantasy sports and every possible country on earth and not have a way of curating that properly while also being subject to the whims of a few powerhungry admins.

It's why a lot of people praised the fediverse instead of reddit yet we're facing the exact same problems.

That's a wild take

something something life starts at conception something something all life has value

apart from that I mostly agree
