There is no should or shouldn’t, they’ve always had and been entitled to that choice. People who develop and host those platforms can make whatever choice they want.
ActivityPub/the Fediverse is only a protocol. If you philosophically disagree with how a platform makes use of that protocol, then you can (theoretically) just use another platform.
What an audacious request. I hope it’ll be rejected — this just has “bad idea” written all over it.
Respectfully, how on earth did this design get cleared? 😭

VS Code, but may switch to VSCodium or Neovim eventually.
I use mostly the web app. Memmy, Mlem, Jerboa, Liftoff, etc. all look cool, but to be honest, I’m not sure I’ll ever go back to having an app on my phone like I did with Reddit. I think I want my engagement with Lemmy to be more on a “when I feel like it” basis than a “when a push notification summons me” basis.
This person’s upvoting beans, and you’re all just going to do nothing about it? What a sick world we live in.
There’s not really anything to disagree with. What you’re calling a No True Scotsman isn’t a No True Scotsman argument in the slightest.
Others have already provided a lot of detailed answers to the OP, and the question in and of itself isn’t necessarily harmful even if it misses the point of federation. But this level of aggression is really unnecessary - please keep it nice if you’re participating on Beehaw.
Hey, although it’s no big deal since this is also about Lemmy, there’s a megathread for all Reddit-related news and discussion here. We’ve been encouraging everyone to direct most discussion related to Reddit there, and I figured it might be worthwhile to pose this question there since it concerns a former 3PA for Reddit. Thanks!
As a reminder, there’s a megathread about all Reddit-related news here - please direct all discussion about Reddit there. Thanks!
While I appreciate the anger please consider that “mediocre <ethnicity>” is not a very nice way to phrase this.
They are using the original title of the article. As per the sidebar rules - “Preserve the original title when possible.”
Also given the recent demographic pole there are many “white” people here who are likely on your side. It particularly hurts when people on your side use language like this.
To be honest, I don’t find this phrasing nearly as harmful as people of color being told for decades that they weren’t as qualified or deserving to be admitted into Ivy League schools compared to white applicants and that the only reason they were “allowed” is because of their race. Nor does it really compare to the harm caused by decades of subjugation, discrimination, and generational wealth disparity.
I figured it was only a matter of time before Unity made AI tools of their own - not too long ago, people in r/Unity were showcasing their own AI projects for building 3D scenes and UI. I wonder what this means for those projects.
I’m more partial to using Godot to develop games though, so I’m more interested in seeing how AI shows up on that front.
I personally disagree with the sentiment that going child-free is the solution to ecological catastrophe. Any individual’s decision to have children, or not, hardly compares to the systemic issues within agriculture and natural resource management which are causing it.
I thought beehaw was supposed to be the “nice” instance. You and others have done a wonderful job proving that otherwise today.
Well, the original comment in this thread which upset you came from your own instance. From where I’m sitting, that comment has been pretty much the only not-really-nice interaction you’ve had all day on here. Don’t really see where this strawman is coming from.
Could you add the link to your post?
I have a lot of mixed feelings about Spotify’s UI choices, but I guess this is what Spicetify is for. 😅
I agree - my main reason for sharing with this post in particular is because the tie-in it has with Beehaw’s recent decision to, at least temporarily, defederate with .world and sh.itjust.works; I just found the framing about decentralization, esp. the fact that the Fediverse is not a monolithic entity mandating a uniformly aligned approach, useful.
On the whole, I do think either ActivityPub’s protocol spec would need some kind of privacy revision, seeing as it’s already been a Problem where microblogging admins have had to block access by servers dedicated to mirroring Mastodon posts which don’t delete their copies after posts are deleted by the user, or the software itself, Lemmy in our case, will have to make adjustments to its implementation of federation like you said. Of course, I’m mostly just conjecturing here and I don’t actually know what either of these might look like 😅
The main part of this which I problematize are the people who are sticking their necks out for Meta and suggesting instances shouldn’t be quick to defederate because this is, supposedly, a good opportunity to bring federated social media into the mainstream. Yet, in my opinion, they’re not making enough of the fact that, even with their open-source contributions, Meta’s software manufactures discord and bigotry on a massive scale. Letting them federate with an instance opens floodgates on that and for the stealing and selling of Fediverse participants’ data.
damn, who could’ve possibly seen that coming? 🫥
