Yeah… you people are nice. Thank you all fr it’s so refreshing and rare to meet nice people on the internet these days

I think Canada, Mexico, & EU should coordinate so that a tariff on any of us is a tariff on all of us. Hit back dollar for dollar on any tariff affecting any of our economies.

Nice to see the EU joining in

Woohoo thanks! Hope you're having a lovely holiday

Thanks so much! It's great to hear from you. I have a few concerns about some of the details of how that might work & could use your advice. I sent you a DM :)

Gotcha no worries thanks for the heads up

Thanks 🫡

Thank you! 😊

Thank you for tagging her for me! If she doesn’t see it I’ll reach out to her soon ❤️

Do you know who I would even talk to in order to find out if this instance is comfortable hosting them? In the long run I am working on setting up my own server but that won’t help if the sub is banned tomorrow for example

Yeah personally I think linking to a Reddit thread is fine because it can be deleted on Reddit still. And then just replying to it here with info so the people have to click through and poke around to get the info they need until eventually they decide to join, etc.

All the more reason to work with the communities to establish a backup.

Right which is what brought me here 😅

Tbh I think that Lemmy is not ideal for archiving existing knowledge. There are people already doing that and I suspect a mirror to wikis and such will be up and running shortly.

The ethics of mirroring the Reddit posts are also ethically dubious. The norm there is that people delete their shit all the time and move on with their lives after surgeries are done. That’s okay because the knowledge lives on via word of mouth about which surgeons are good, etc.

To my mind the much bigger risk here is that the community itself has nowhere to go when a ban happens so everyone just scatters. The data can all be backed up but it’s useless sitting on a hard drive with nobody to share it with.

I have talked to the mod at Transgender_Surgeries and the vibe is they’ve worked tirelessly for years doing a thankless job and are too burned out but are open to others taking the lead—probably more likely they would add it to a list of resources if someone else takes the lead on this

I agree with getting off of simply mirroring Reddit content but I think we need a bridge in order to get people posting here. Like if I reply with helpful info here then people have follow up questions maybe they’ll ask me here instead of there type of thing & slowly migrate over
