Following the announcement by beehaw admins to defederate from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works, there has been many posts and messages regarding that decisions and what other instances will do.
I personally believe Lemmy/kbin can only thrive if there is a free flow of content between different instances, with instance admins taking a back seat and focusing more on the infrastructure and making sure the technical bugs are smoothened out. Community mods can moderate their communities, and users can block the communities they don’t find appealing (there’s even a toggle in settings to hide every NSFW post from your feed altogether).
We don’t want to create walled gardens, nor do we want to make Lemmy more confusing than it already is for new users. We will not be defederating from any instance if there is even one good community on it that our instance users might find useful. So far we have only blocked lemmygrad.ml, and right now we have no plans to block anyone else.
Much like what the US is doing today, wouldn’t you say so 🤷?
Why have you commented twice the same thing?
I don’t support the US in general. If you’re talking about Ukraine specifically then Ukraine is in the right in this war, to the extent there is a right side in this war. NATO isn’t good but current day Russia is worse.
Bad signal, must’ve posted twice by mistake thinking the post didn’t go through.
I’m not talking about Russia or Ukraine nowadays. I was talking about all of the wars the US though are “necessary” to fight over the past 30 years or so, in order to perserve it’s way of life (whatever that means)… not to mention butting in into other countries wars, internal affairs, etc. Beside the point, by having these wars, they create new job oportunities for compaines (US based or not), mostly in contruction, thus boosting the econmy. Everyone knows construction booms are one of the main reasons for economy booms, and it’s completely logical.
Oh I agree that what the US has done is wrong. That’s why I don’t support president bush or the US in general. It’s a very messed up country.
It’s also funny that they helped arm the Taliban only to go in and fight them, and then have them take back over anyway when they left. What an epic series of blunders that was.
