They only reason I started using hotels again is because my fiance gets good deals and they usually upgrade us because she works in the industry 🙂

My problem is that people talk as if these are the only options.

There are other services, like VRBO, that do the same thing and usually have the same properties. AirBNB is garbage now, so just use an alternative that doesn’t have the same bad policies and high fees.

I still have a 8700K and haven’t really had the need to upgrade in a while. I’ll never buy a processor with something like this in it. If Microsoft forces it in new CPUs, I’m pretty sure I can make it the rest of my life with current hardware.

Yeah moving to a federation alternative seems like it would be extremely welcomed in that type of community. They would have a lot more freedom in posting whatever content they wanted without being bothered by the reddit admins.

Pirates are notoriously good at finding the content they are looking for, so a “hidden” community on Lemmy would still thrive.

Isn’t a lot of Beehaws complaints the lack of moderation on other instances, not specifically their own?

If they’re struggling with managing their own content, they certainly shouldn’t have to worry about content from other instances. Any instance that hasn’t managed to sort out their own moderation should be defederated until they figure it out.

Every individual community inside each instance should have its own set of moderators or it should not exist.

The beauty of the fediverse is that the last panel can’t happen.

We control our own instances. There’s no world where admins wouldn’t defederate from any Facebook attempt to barge in.

Maybe a few larger instances sell out, but users hold the power here now. If an admin betrays our trust, we’ll just make a new instance.

Reposting is a long standing tradition on Reddit… I don’t see a reason that should change on Lemmy.

It’s not just a question about memes. If you see content on Reddit for your favorite topic or game, you should 100% replicate that data over to Lemmy.

If there’s a good duplication of content in both places, it makes it easier to move completely over to Lemmy.

And some massive lawsuits to handle.
