The what?

Maybe I'm being pessimistic, but this whole thing is starting to sound like "don't interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." Was it rigged from the start? For a couple of days everyone was civil and in less than a week, "Let's Get Ready toooo RUMBLE"!
Was there another way?
Out of the loop here, but I've heard about this.
Is this roblox?
I will elaborate. Every user can and should make a list of instances they personally don't like, but admins/mods are also users. They're just telling you that we don't like these instances, but it's your choice on whether you want to block them or not. Maybe they shouldn't show it to you upon signup, I sort of agree there but a new user showing up and needing to start by cleaning up the place to their liking is a bit of friction for them. Will make a stronger selling point for another server that just defederates by default.
Here is the answer.
Autoblock spam and illegal content Make a "not cool" communities list and allow users to check a button upon signing up to block instantly.
Problem solved.
I love factorio!
Yes but I only see 2 problems so far. The siloing of instances and searchability. I can't search with lemmy yet since there are so many instances with no standard like with site:reddit.com. Way less issues than dealing with reddit so it's a big win for me!
I like the idea of nostr, but is there a fork around to avoid the stream of cringe bitcoin talk? I think this would be ideal for something like high speed discord, more than a twitter replacement.
I'm not sure on this, but I think it's the latter that you mentioned.
So they're just kicking everyone in the balls and hoping coins fall out. Risky bet...
It's essentially like email. If you have a gmail, you can communicate with anyone on any other email service. If gmail determines that spamsite.xyz, you won't send or recieve any emails from that domain. Same thing here. You're using lemmy.world. If lemmy.world defederates with my server sh.itjust.works, you won't see my messages. We will just never cross paths.
I don't want to be incendiary, but aren't they just getting new mods? Are the new people going to show up and wreck the place for fun?
