The Radiohead album? Don’t see why it couldn’t be interpreted by a woman.

Interesting but it doesn’t remove admins from the equation and users still have to choose an instance to be associated with instead of just having a Lemmy account like they have a Reddit account…
It could be done without having to clone all data though. Reddit is hosted by AWS and their data is distributed on multiple servers, so replace AWS by a bunch of people like you and me providing disk space for the data and tada, you can decentralized the database and just give people access to interacting with it directly (through code) or via various front-ends that people would create.
From a user perspective the front-end they use would be like Reddit before the API bullshit, it’s just them using an app or a website to make things look good, but they have access to everything that’s in the database and they’re using the same credentials no matter which front-end they use.
The difference with Reddit is that since the hosts are just that, hosts to the data, they don’t have admin power over users. They can filter the data that’s hosted on their servers (like admins need to do now) but that content might be hosted by another server instead and they can’t ban a user from the website itself since they don’t control it (hence the crypto analogy, you can run a node, but it’s just you adding one more server to the bunch, you don’t have any real power over what’s happening).
And Mastodon is decentralized in a way that makes it so people don’t want to join the platform, so… To BlueSky we go!
If things were decentralized in similar way to crypto it would be way better for user adoption. The server side stuff is decentralized separately from the stuff users interacts with, so users can use a bunch of different websites to interact with the server side stuff, but they’re always using the same credentials no matter the website they use and no matter the website they can interact with everything that ever happened on the servers, no one has the power to prevent users from seeing some of the transactions that happened (no admins) because the website they use are just a front used to simplify interaction with the servers.
There’s plenty of good restaurants where you don’t have to look or act fancy. I’ve spent 1k on a meal without alcohol for my GF and I in a place where you fit in wearing jeans and a t-shirt and you can talk about whatever the fuck you want with your friends and nobody cares. You could make anyone discover tons of new types of foods without having them feel bad about who they are…
Yep, started on AMA and it looks like it’s here now as well. I called one out, the person defended themself and then 24h later the account was deleted. Maybe it’s for AI training? 🤔
Funny how a few months ago it was all about letting States decide…
Had the same thing happen when searching for Bluesky
I get your point but society decided it would rather have private interests managing social media so 🤷
Decentralization is one solution though.
Ok buddy, keep on trolling 👍
And you’ll still be free to create your own community, you can even create it on your own instance if you want. It’s not perfect, but there’s ways to work around issues like that on Lemmy.
I mean… You’re on a form of social media and you’re complaining about pro Palestine censorship, seems like you have the solution right in your face.
You’re free to start your own social media where you’ll allow it, that’s how free speech works, as long as the place where you’re sharing your message is owned by private interests, the owner can censor you all they want.
Shitter can censor you all they want, they have zero obligation to allow you to say whatever you want as it’s a privately owned website. You can run your own website and say what you want on it though, just like you can put whatever message you want on your car or on your front lawn and people are free to read it or ignore it.
That’s exactly how it works though. You can say whatever you want on the sidewalk, once you enter a store it’s the store owner that decides if they allow you to say what you want to say.
You can say what you want on your own website, if you say it on someone else’s website they can censor you all they want.
You have freedom of speech where the government can give it to you, stop expecting freedom of speech on platforms owned by private interests, that’s not how freedom of speech works.
Well the next 4 years are part of forever
And yet, no non-Chinese alternative… Isn’t capitalism supposed to be good at filing voids left open? 🤔
“No you see I’m paying the 31 days price and you’re pocketing an extra 7 days every year, so I should be charging you for those days.”
