I mean, this isn’t just a social media thing. It was part of the reason there was a writer’s strike in Hollywood and they did manage to accomplish something. I don’t see why protests/strikes/politics would be useless here.

It already ended, lol
At least on Lemmy, defederating is also a way of banning all the instance’s users from your communities. If you’re constantly banning one instance’s users and their admins seem fine with it, there’s really no other way.
If you’re defederating a lot, most of it will be tiny instances you got from some blocklists, so I don’t know if this really says much
What do you count as reading outside of books?
I’m a big fan of Goya’s (drowning?) dog painting, another of his Black Paintings that nobody knew about before he died
Oh wow, this is the first time I see this difference mentioned. NATO really expects that much military spending?
Similarly, animation aimed at adults tends to have an awful art style and/or has to “prove” that it’s not for kids by being full of juvenile sex jokes and swearing
That + mostly sticking to my subscriptions (coincidentally, none of them tech or politics) makes it feel like I’m on a completely different Lemmy
Anecdotally, the communities I’m interested in are getting more active in a way that seems sustainable (as opposed to last year, when it was a always a single person posting some, getting no responses, and leaving). I’m pretty positive about the state of Lemmy and the wider threadiverse.
8 values has 4 different axes, instead of left/right
For what it’s worth Beehaw already has hexbear and lemmygrad completely defederated
Can you trust a big comoany to do it?
f
and g
are what give the circle, together they say “give me all points at distance 1 from (2,2)”.
It’s always an eye-opener when you look at an ELI5 thread where you’re actually knowledgeable about the topic
Similarly, it looks like a.gup.pe groups don’t work here even though they’re basically just communities
Would make sense too, they don’t use default Gmail either. Some other governments have Mastodon instances
…and Meta repays them by censoring all mentions of Pixelfed (unless I’m mixing up Fediverse names)
Still, it’s revenue (not just profit)
