And here i though “pretty epic” seems rather weird to me. I’ll have to check on desktop later.

Lolwhat on that last line. Such a loophole.

Thats my only guess. Bit strange though, there where piracy subs on R and i have yet to see any direct links to copyrighted material.

If they squerm at even the thought of obtaining copies of digital goods licensed by mega corporations without inconveniencing their vast profits then Arre have nottin to say to them but will share(!) my shanty “ https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IeTybKL1pM4 “

Interesting, i wonder whet the reasons where.

I doubt this is about donations.

There is some stuff going on on beehaw, i am not quite sure about the details but essentially they defederated with some other big instances.

This means that they can no longer interact with those instances. And those instances can also not interact with communities on beehaw.

They can interact with other instances but are shielded from every comment and possibly even votes caused by defederated instances.

I believe this is a temporary trend that some instances are doing to protect their communities till better moderation tools exist. Not allowing new people in might be a part of that, Personally i am not a fan of this strategy but apparently current beehaw users are content with this.

I am on the fmhy instance myself, as far as i know we are not defederated with anyone so all of lemmy (including communities on beehaw) are open for me to see and interact with.

Its gone now, the end off an era. I am debating to keep the app for now as a memory.

Timer is up but Apollo is still working.

I dont see the magic word.

FYI: This is called the paradox of tolerance

Philosopher Karl Popper described the paradox of tolerance as the seemingly counterintuitive idea that “in order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance.” Essentially, if a so-called tolerant society permits the existence of intolerant philosophies, it is no longer tolerant.

Thats sm i have been wondering. I was planning to make my own instance to make sure my account can exist independently and also not to burden other instances. But i don’t have the resources or time to maintain it beyond myself and maybe close relatives/friends.

I hope to become an active memeber in at least some communities without making an account on their instance. Should i not get a vote?
