No? Is it necessary to go to terrible sources in order to make your point?

A lot of that falls under "attacks on users" or "attacks on groups". Of course we're still going to enforce that.

"Don’t make us de-mod you" is effectively what a lot of this comes down to. The goal is to be just a little less quick with moderation tools and, when we can, use our words a bit more.

I don't expect this to change much for 95% of communities. The ones that are really going to have to change are the ones with super fragile philosophies that can't stand up to a single sentence of criticism.

Why are you tipping if there's a line? The line implies self service.

We're not going to allow queer people to be attacked using the same old tropes. That's not what this is about. The coincidence with Meta is unfortunate timing.

This is generally about manipulating people through echo chambers. It's about allowing users to counter misinformation, particularly from moderators.

A lot of attacks like that are common and worth refuting once in awhile anyway. It can be valuable to show the response on occasion. Additionally, you don't always have to have the last word. When they end with something ridiculous enough, I often just leave it. The point is to help the reader see the options, but you can't make them drink. If they look at the water fountain, then the toilet, and then they choose the toilet, well maybe they're not able to be helped.

If they keep spamming, you have a legit reason to remove them.

The communities where we take action should have a very clear pattern. I don't expect this to be perfect, but we're open to suggestions.

He's .ml. The point is to make sure we never fix anything.

How much effort do you think Meta, Twitter, and Reddit put into getting open social media people to fight against themselves?

Yeah, I don't expect it to scale well. Certainly not as well as Rust.

No, they're not.

how the developers handle certain types of content

Doesn't matter if you stay away from .ml.

the behavior of its creator

Kind of valid, but open source and open license negates a lot of that.

how the sotware itself handles users’ privacy.

You think anything else on the Fediverse is better? When you post something publicly, it's public. Doesn't really matter what the software does. If you don't have End to End encryption, it's not private.

Unfortunately I paid for a year. I've had newspaper subs for at least a decade primarily to support real journalism. It's not like I couldn't find the words for free if I really wanted them. The people and the journalism is what I was paying for, not the words.

ProPublica.org is a great suggestion.

What he and guys administration does is newsworthy. What he says is really not, outside of the extremes.

Oh, they can just get it straight from the source.

Wrong thread, sorry.

Garland still can. If he's really loyal to this country, he'd release it.

Then the appeals go the other way, on whether the DoJ was really allowed to release it. But the important bit is already done.

Weird. I can't see the .ml after your name. Must be a Lemmy bug.

Careful, some instances take more after Elon's idea of free speech.

Well, except that it's nearly always super damaging.

The US version would be more like collecting cans back when they had a 5 or 10 cent deposit. Today I can't really think of anything like that. Maybe driving Uber/Lyft. Or just panhandling/begging.

Mainstream media also has those people. Real journalists do exist.

Mainstream media is more accountable in a lot of ways. There's absolutely less misinformation on mainstream media. All the facts they publish are true. The same can't be said for social media.

Social media can be less filtered, for good or bad. It can also just seem less filtered while there's absolutely a filter deciding what gets promoted to you. Look at Elon's recent moves on X, for example.

As long as you understand the nuance, it can be fine. Especially if you're using mainstream media to verify facts from social media.

Sanction me?!? No. Sanction yourself.
