Is that really true? Have you talked to Trump supporters and they are happy with this?

It just seems that no ordinary person is winning with Trump…

Ah you meant other countries probably. Yeah I can see that.

I dont know if societies will be very happy with three more years under Trump. He is doing so many chaotic things.

He wants profit and power. I dont think he cares what happens in order for him to get it. The world is just like one of his companies. You fire people, you treat them badly, anything to get what you want from the entire thing.

You guys really are winning. :)

Make sure to be grateful every day and say thank you.

You handsome son of a bitch. :)

Lol :)

He is attached to a invisible string from the top, like a puppet.

I bought an HP printer once and im never doing that again. The best printers ive had has all been Brother.

We can trust Pete as much as any other US official. :)

100% agree with this. Its good that we have many options, its good for the ecosystem as a whole.

Ok. It sounds like a bug to me, but not sure. Can always create an issue in the github for Lemmy and see what they respond.

There’s too much left wing shit on Lemmy and the instance blocks don’t realllly work, I still get responses and see comments from instances I’ve blocked, it just blocks the communities not anything else

Yeah ok. Hopefully this can be improved in future versions of the lemmy software. I think its designed to not show those responses and comments from blocked instances. Are you sure you are looking at the Subscribed view? I dont know this, but maybe the All view will not take blocked instances into account, and the other one will? But i dont know.

I think this depends what you mean with trolls. Some users who are called trolls by other users are not trolls in my opinion. Its just users expressing an opinion that the other user doesnt agree with.

To be a troll, you have to intentionally post things to upset others. If I post my opinion on something and you call me a troll because of it, that means im a troll? No it just means thats what you think about me. Its not a universal opinion that everyone shares.

Users who only post things that upsets others are banned also from lemmy.today. Its not designed to be a safe haven for actual trolls. But it does allow users to have unpopular opinions. The job of the moderator is to know when a user is an actual troll and when he just has an opinion that is not popular. There is a big difference.

Yeah but its interesting that all of these big tech guys are so creepy. Altman, Musk, Zuckerberg… Do they grow them in labs?

That would be amazing to be included there. A true honor.

Yeah I dont believe instance admins should choose those things for their users. There are options for users to block other instances themselves if they want to.

I think for giant instances, perhaps it makes sense, because moderation could become a full time job otherwise, specially if they want to have strict rules what people can say.

But yeah, im old school and I believe in letting users make that choice themselves. Im ok with seeing opinions i dont agree with, and I hope our users are also. :)

Support small instances, the admins really appreciate getting new users, and it keeps the ecosystem healthy. Also it keeps moderation in check. If some instances are being too hard, there are options for users to go to. But only if those smaller instances feel motivated to keep going. So lets support them.

I also agree with you. Its hard right now to know what instances are blocking what. How are users supposed to keep track of this? Its like small islands with different cultures, and a new user have no idea before signing up. Would be nice if there was a place that would describe each instance attitude to moderation and who they are not federating with, and for what reason.
