You could always use lemmy.org

I no longer see separated up- and downvotes for comments and neither an option to change that in the settings, despite the changelogs mentioning it. Any ideo what’s up with that?

Aren’t those almost always race condition bugs? The debugger slows execution, so the bug won’t appear when debugging.

Gonna wait for a stable male.

Are you of the opinion that people don’t already use internet resources, libraries, interviews and other educational avenues to inform themselves? Many here seem to be needing an education on how to use Wikipedia responsively, they seem to think that one is unable to engage with a wikipedia article critically. I just checked the article for BP, as one of the blogs linked here claimed that over 44% of BP’s wikipedia page was corporate speak. The ‘controversies’ section is one third to half the wikipedia page in length. As a jumping-off point for further study, it is perfectly adequate.

Of course no single site is perfect. Editors may always have ulterior motives. That is what the editing history is for. But with a federated wiki, the only thing you’ll get is multiple different versions that all present their oen little “truths” and at that point you can just go back and search the entire internet for blogs, just like the website you sent me is a blog.

Which also means that marxist.wiki/article/communism will be completely different from libertarian.wiki/article/communism. I think I will take Wikipedia’s attempt at impartiability over a “wikipedia” destined to just devolve into islands of “alternative facts”

You are underestimating, by a mile, the editorial effort that goes into fighting scam and spam, vandalism and lies. Wikipedia does have a support structure to do that, I doubt instance admins have the same kind of resources.

I haven’t seen anything from Hexbear since they defederated from us. Are they such a nuisance?

Here is a link detailing the issues concerning root certificates in the eIDAS legislation, as it currently written and about to be voted on: https://www.theregister.com/2023/11/08/europe_eidas_browser/

The EU is in a constant struggle for its direction. Discounting it as a lost cause only allows malicious actors free reign. On the one hand, EU regulators take on tech monopolies, like forcing Microsoft to un-bundle Windows and Edge/Bing. And european courts have repeatedly struck down legislation that would allow for indiscriminate data retention.
On the other hand, the EU politicians are currently trying to sneak through a law that would force browsers to accept state-issued root certificates, allowing them to spy on and alter any and all internet communication, basically upending the trust-based system that keeps the internet secure currently. This law is part of the eIDAS initiative.
And I’m sure that with the new, EU-driven right to repair initiative, the train manufacturer will be forced to back down soon too.

I wasn’t talking about malicious comments, I was talking about all comments made by users from a specific instance, wether they are malicious or not.

To ease your easily startled mind, even if I consider the toxicity of users from other instances, your spam easily tops that.

“Hexbears aren’t rude!”
You literally just posted your weirdly fetishized pooping pig two times in a row before this comment.

But I guess the cognitive dissonance comes with being a china apologist.

Stop your fetishization of china and I’ll consider it.

I disagree to defederate from them, but you made a beatiful argument for it.

You’ll have to block the communities one by one. But it’s not that many, blocking the 10 biggest ones should be sufficient.

There is evidence for it, you just claim that it is all a fabrication. Just one I found after seconds of searching. Have fun debunking over 60k accounts of mistreatment. https://shahit.biz/eng/

my dude, just because you can scour the internet for 20-30 articles that support your psy-op, while out right dismissing anything even tangentially related with main stream press as biased, doesn’t mean you have a point. It only means you’ve successfully created a bubble around you. Get outa here.

No problem buddy, let just quickly break into that one chinese government archive where they got all their nasty stuff, should be easy ;^)
