Russia would have never signed on to that. Their whole argument about Ukraine is the constant advancement of NATO territories towards its border.

This is like saying that Germany has the right to keep the American nukes stationed on its soil if the US was to ever leaver Germany.
The soviet bombs were built, operated and guarded by a Russian department of the Russian Republic member of the Soviet union. what Ukraine signed on was a smooth repatriation of those nukes back to Russian. there is no real way Ukraine could have confiscated them even if they tried.
Every country should have the freedom to build their own nukes while we are at it.
The only country who dared used their bombs, and twice, is the US, and did it while there was no need for it. so I don’t see how some countries are taking the moral high ground about who should and shouldn’t have nukes, it is mostly about about who should and should impose their imperialism with the help of nukes.
Mozilla keeps digging Firefox’s grave, and seeing how other opensource projects like Gimp struggle to even keep up with their own release schedule and very slow development rate. I fear we will be left with only chrome to use.
They removed russian maintainers that are associated with sanctioned companies
Your are voluntarily spreading fake news and you are getting upvoted for that !
They have removed every person they suspected to be russian or have a russian “.ru” domain name in their email from the maintainers list.
The down vote count is proof this is the demographics that pretends they are the side that cares about human rights and the death of innocent civilians but in reality it is all theatrics and sanctimony. They haven’t moved a finger to fight against the injustice or protest against their own governments. but when those who truly care and can’t in any circumstances vote for both parties involved in genocide. they clutch their pearls and lecture them about how the party that is actually involved in genocide is the right answer against another party who will be just as involved in genocide. because brown people’s death is meeeh .
I wasn’t referring to racism. Race and Nationality are almost the same thing, people can’t chose in what community they were born in. and not everyone has the means to move.
don’t be pedantic, what about the Chinese, south-Africans, north-Koreans, Cubans, …etc
So the Rest of the world should trust CIA, NSA contributions but not Russia’s FSB ? come on , opensource should be tolerant towards all espionage agencies no matter their skin color.
I took full advantage of invidious while it was still working, now I am anxious of ever going back to YouTube. It won’t be long before they requiring giving them your iris scan before watching a video on that shit platform.
Corporations and commercial interests taking over the internet is inevitable. the only free corners left are the darknets with tor/i2p. but because the normies can’t bother use that isn’t falshy and trendy, there might not be any other chance to replace this decrepit boring dystopia.
They hive mind is just as strong on lemmy as it is on Reddit. which has led me to wind-down my engagement on lemmy and will very soon drop it all together. going back to RSS I guess or might try nostr next.
According to your handle, it might be you who is intersted in that sort of shit, but you are instead reflecting it on others.
You kinda intentionally ignoring my point, I was asking for suggestion of different models, even different protocols if they exist. not instance - community - moderation based ones.
At this point I am disappointed with every other internet model that came out so far. and I don’t think that moderation has been a good addition, I can see the need for it if you are building a community around your own persona, like a streamer or influencer fandom. but for things like politcs and economies and stuff it just turns into echo chambers.
Do you need to pay for those relays, or register with those relays like you to on lemmy to be able to post ?
can you move your account from one relay to another ?
Are ther modded communities or subreddits like they are on lemmy ?
Do you need an app to be constantly connected in the background like briar messenger or all content is hosted on the relays?
No I want people to be able to block my post just as I can block other people’s posts, but I don’t need a moderator to block either my posts or other people’s posts to be seen by everybody else engaging in that discussion, thread, theme, hashtag, what ever you name it.
When blocking is done at an individual level it doesn’t silence or shutdown views or ideas from the discussions, every individual is free to not engage with people or ideas they don’t agree with, but they shouldn’t have the power to block those ideas for everybody else.
No this federation experiment is at the end for me.
I don’t believe in the federation model anymore. I was looking for a p2p protocol like a big bitorrent swarm, something more decentralized where no one has power over the discussions. I want to filter the content I want to consume. I dont’t need someone else to decide what I should or should not read. I was hoping for an open network where every node have the same leverage and you only mod your own feed.
You can’t escape moderation and censorship in lemmy. If a moderator of a certain big community has a certain heavy bias towards a subject and moderates accordingly. you are just bared from such discussions. communities suffer from the same network effects as social media do. I can take heat and shitty people but I can’t stand silencing.
I might check nostr. is it app relient ??
why should some have nukes and others not?
Were they given divine mandate ? are they superior human beings ? explain !!
