I find it completely discouraging for any sort of content.

I find it generally weird that follows, likes, etc. are public. But I can’t say I understand those type of platforms anyway.

There’s one app but I don’t use it as it do not have a compact view, only cards, and that would not replace anything on the desktop either. PieFed is about as bad as Lemmy imo. There is an open feature request for this on Github though, so hopefully it’s just a matter of time.

Yes, it’s blocked pretty much since before I even switched from kbin.social to fedia.io. It does block neither the instance nor the users from there, hence why I have such a huge blocklist of communities. I block them as they pop up on my feed.

This has been discussed with the devs & admins. You’re basically just opening and blocking the domain itself. Look at the threads on that page. They are all .ml leading links, but posted in various other instances that are not actually .ml. So they’re not an accumulation of actual .ml communities and their content, but content that is posted wherever that links towards .ml. It’s like those domain filters on some websites (like Reddit IIRC) that you can click on to get a list of all submissions from that domain, like a news site for example, except only within the realms of the fediverse.

No, that just blocks direct links to said instances. So it basically does nothing.

Again, thanks for proving my point. Bye.

I’m not directly comparing Nazis to vegans and you clearly not even attempting to differentiate between militant vegans and sane vegans kinda proves my point. There’s no nuance, it’s all a black and white “if you’re not one of us, you’re against us” type of mentality. If animal welfare is that important to you, then you’d at least attempt to communicate with others in a reasonable fashion instead of either trying to convert them to some sort of cult mentality or shunning them if they aren’t able or willing to do so.

Contrary point of view here. I’m not vegan, not even vegetarian, but reduced my animal produce consumption a lot (not that I consumed much anyway) and am always looking for further alternatives that are possible within my personal circumstances. However, what I’ve seen on Lemmy (and other social media, such as Reddit) regarding vegans, was highly militant and toxic people who spew nonsense and hostility towards anyone who is not vegan. Generally what you’d describe as veganazi or whatever. Seeing things like that definitely does not cause me wanting to join or even lurk such communities and is really just confirming the stereotypes being shared by certain trolls.

It’s not. I’m not using Lemmy.

Because that isn’t an option.

I block all .ml communities that pop up on my feed. Somewhere between 200-300 on my blocklist by now (not all exclusively from .ml of course, but most of them).

The US had AI safeguards? I thought they’re going all in with AI recognition and mass surveillance.

Thumbnails are blurred by default in mbin but you can use something like KES to unblur them automatically. https://github.com/aclist/kbin-kes/

Hm, not sure the upvotes federated properly here.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen that instance handle anywhere.

And websites don’t support Webkit. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

No, because there won’t be anything but Chrome.

If this Firefox trend continues, then we won’t really have a choice in the matter anymore.
