  • Awesome to see both Williams in Q3. Let's hope they can convert to some decent points tomorrow!

  • I'm having it done tomorrow, good to hear it was straightforward and relatively painless!

  • That's why I like my instance, the admins are great and we have the same mindset of federation: let the users decide who they want to block and only defederate from a instance if they're hugely problematic or doing something illegal.

    I think lemmy.ml is federated with lemmygrad right? I never see their stuff either, it's probably such a small instance that it kinda gets lost from the activity of the bigger and more popular communities.

  • The beauty is that you can just block the annoying instances. I've blocked lemmy.ml so I don't see their communities, but can still see their users commenting on posts.

  • The only issue here is that you're upset the author hasn't mentioned why the immigrant entered the country even though that's not the point of the article. You're the one with the issue.

    Now answer my question.

  • Honestly, no idea. To me it's irrelevant to the story of the couple and the policy. It doesn't matter if they were a man or a woman, young or old. It's also irrelevant what their height and weight are, their favourite food or sports are.

    Now you answer my question.

  • What would it have changed about it if they weren't included and it just said "an immigrant"?

  • Why? The article is about the couple being fined for finding the stowaway after they left the port, the gender, age and reason the stowaway came to the UK is irrelevant to that.

  • It's not, they could have left it out and it wouldn't have changed anything.

  • Sorry, just realised you asked about linking to a post and not a community!

    I actually can't remember how that works on web, on the app Voyager that link works fine. Will check it out when I get on my laptop.

  • You only need the one account, you don't need to sign into other instances.

    There can be some weirdness on the web version where if someone uses the wrong type of link then you maybe redirected away and can't interact as you're not logged in.

    For example:

    !casualuk@feddit.uk

    https://feddit.uk/c/casualuk

  • The admins have a long history of banning people across the entire instance who are critical of China, North Korea, Cuba etc. That said, you should be fine and if you're happy with the instance then there's no reason to move. Some users like to make a bigger deal out if it than it really is.

    The "ml" in the domain is supposed to represent "Marxist Lennist" which the ideology the instance is aimed at.

  • Why is it relevant to the article about why he came here? The point of the article is that people were fined for reporting him, highlighting the ridiculous policy.

  • These petitions are utterly pointless. Has there ever been a case where something has changed due to one of these petitions?

    Also, the government responded to this back in November:

    The Government was elected on a manifesto that made clear there will be no return to EU membership. However, we are determined to reset the UK-EU relationship, putting it on a more solid footing.

  • Because that's not the focus of the article, it's specifically about the policy of fining people who report stowaways.

  • Interesting, thanks!

  • All this policy will do is encourage people not to report stowaways. Totally bonkers.

  • Why's do you think it would be crazy to accept the UK back in?
