Activitypub accounts are portable actually. Lemmy is not as slick as Mastodon with this feature yet but will likely get there.

Eh, if an instance allows trolls, then that instance typically gets defederated from very quickly (at least it does on my instance). The only reason it is an issue now is that two of the big three instances (.world and .ml) have very lax moderation standards. If the lemmy-verse grows to the size of Reddit, then two lax instances won’t be as big of an issue.

Lemmy’s design is fundamentally excellent to deal with bad actors, the whole point of ActivityPub/Federation is that moderation is much more effective while also preserving free speech. I’m not sure what that person on about.

I think Lemmy should be huge. Think about how many subreddits exist for every niche. It would be great if those places could exist free of corporate influence.

Federated platforms are significantly more effective than centralized ones at mitigating the influence of bad actors.

The replicators work very well, thank you.

The kickstarter is official too, Daniel tooted it recently.

Please make a review 😅

A much hyped fanfilm from the post Enterprise/pre-Disco days where fan films were all we had to keep us going. “Renegades” had a good amount of hype around it because it had a real budget and the cast they managed to get. Unfortunately money can’t buy taste and the actual script is pretty bad.

Oh COME ON now I have to buy these too??

Is something finally going to federate with bluesky?

I hope we get a de-aged Shatner appearance (I don’t actually hope that… I think)

It really feels like they watched Star Trek Renegades and were like “YES”.

I echo what you said elsewhere, if I get a goofy action movie (or better) then I won’t be disappointed and it will be nice to see the Discovery-era one last time.

Nothing to add except I love this discussion prompt

YES haha he really got some space smarts by then

Scott Bakula is a good actor but he sold the adventurous naivete of S1-2 Archer much better than the moody and distraught Archer in S3. Thankfully season 4 went back to the original spirit.

Why does the other persons energy matter? If someone requests not to be called something and you continue to call them that then you are kinda being a jerk. It’s not the same as correcting someone’s grammar.

Surprised nobody’s mentioned this: https://reek.github.io/anti-adblock-killer/

Haha, Ulrich I noticed you on several threads the past few days correcting misinformation, thank you for your service.

I loved him in Layer Cake where he plays the opposite of Miles O’Brien.

In my book a single data point (a phone number) is not “vast amounts of metadata”. Again, I have never seen someone describing Signal as a “paragon of privacy and security”, Signal itself certainly does not say that (It’s presented as an improvement over SMS).
