  • Because it's just the outer layer, and the print is still there. Your new outer skin is just the old under layer.

    If you damage your skin enough to remove the fingerprint, it doesn't grow back. There are lots of people without fingerprints due to the types of work they do

  • I'd bet they're steam controller touch pads, and they're quite a bit bigger than the final steam deck ones. Probably normal sized sticks too, with that in mind. The sizes are relatively identical to my steam controller

  • I agree he wasn't acting in good faith, but I'm more concerned with any would-be censorship than a silly troll. The moderator actually reached out to me and explained the scenario, and pointed out that they actually left one of their duplicate posts up.

    I'm pretty happy with how the particular situation has gone down, but I do still stand by my initial comments and my principles on censorship.

    Mods handled it appropriately and sealion is an idiot, misrepresenting the scenario. but that was a given.

  • Thanks for taking the time to break it down.

    I agree that he isn't acting in good faith, but silencing the discussion is (would be) the bigger issue to me than some silly troll.

    I really appreciate your response and reasoning. I don't have an issue with logistical moderation (e.g. duplicate threads) but I'm extremely adverse to moderation of actual topics for what should be obvious reasons.

    Given that you left the other thread up, I think I can put away the pitchfork for now. I'll have a look at your rules, and hopefully find myself satisfied and participating in your community.

  • Don't care. I don't care about your sealioning either.

    It is my view that some things should be dealt with through downvotes and discussion, not moderation. Especially when we are talking about authoritarianism of all fucking things.

    Moderation in my view is an extreme measure that shouldn't be enacted lightly. And I only want to participate in communities that share that view.

  • Yes. I disagree with their rules and their enforcement of them, and this exposed that. So I wont participate in it.

    What else would you have me do in that scenario?

    It's not like I pour over each community's rules before reading any content that surfaces from them.

  • We used to say the same thing about the internet as a whole, and then the big tech companies crowded out all the smaller options, started controlling narratives and we ended up where we are at now.

    I don't want to see the same thing happen with Lemmy instances. We are on the ground floor.
