Good luck, all DRM is evil.

Yes, there is. You have 705 post score and 565 comment score.

Some have sure, most I doubt. The largest instance certainly hasn’t.

Intent is irrelevant. Humans don’t work that way and will continue to downvote what they don’t like/agree with and upvote what they do like/agree with. Creating a system that ignores how people work and asking them to please use it how you want will never work.

Everyone should just embrace how it’s actually used and move on.

I don’t mind them existing either. My issue is with how they show up in the subscription feed now. I’d prefer separate feeds for shorts.

Broadcast not cable, and owned by Disney.

They did the opposite and shoved a pointless shorts section in the middle of your subscription page so you can’t see what you actually want to look at.

I do and it’s already available at https://old.lemmy.world for anyone who prefers it.

Someone else mentioned old.lemmy.world if you like the old reddit UI. That one is closer to what I want personally.

But yeah, options is great. Just need a way to save a preference now so it will use my preferred UI when logged in. Either that or throw together a redirect plugin.

Unfortunately this is even worse than the default lemmy UI with even more wasted space on desktop. But hey, more options for people is always nice and hopefully some will like this.

I read the article, it’s also shit and fails to properly talk about the issue instead of ranting about data loss.

Did you read the article? Because as far as I can see it fails to actually say shit about the problem. From just this article I can see why people are blaming the author for not having redundancy.

The Arstechnica articles however do actually say what’s going on, so yeah this appears to be a real issue with these drives disconnecting.

You have it backwards. Defederation happened prior to the removal of the “child-like” reference. Per the explanation of the removal it was part of the community from the start when the definition of adorable was copy/pasted.

I don’t know why you would assume the addition happened after defederation based on the time stamp of it’s removal.

You have it backwards. That mod is the one who removed “child-like” it was there until after defederation/this blew up and the nsfw admins appointed that mod in response.

They aren’t removing opposing comments. They are removing comments from other instances as it’s a meta post about their instance. Opposing comments from their own instance have not been removed.

If you aren’t on their instance your opinions aren’t relevant and this doesn’t affect you.

archive is failing to properly archive lemmy pages. It has a blank sidebar but will update to the current one.

The mod themselves said it was true and you’ve been given links to it multiple times.

More like, it’s less sketchy if you pay for a domain at all. .ml was free, what did they think was going to happen?

They can do that in the image as well.

Copy/pasted text stays with time too and doesn’t have the issues that pictures of text do. Also hosted images disappear all the time.

In this case they did come first though! They registered the /c/politics community first.

But really they should change the display name to US Politics.
