  • Honest question, how would they be able to do damage via the federation protocol?

    My understanding was that it sends data regarding posts comments and actions to all servers.

    The closest I thought I had was some kind of instance ban but while that gets federated, it doesn’t result in a ban elsewhere

    Instance a bans user foobar Instance b sees this information but foobar is not banned by instance b.

    We saw some of that with the hexbear drama a couple of months back


  • Honestly, with the user level blocking feature in personally against instance level blocking as well.

    1. I strong believe in user choice. It’s clear from this thread that there isn’t an overwhelming majority in favor of instance blocking threads. There does not appear to be one that’s not in favor.

    1a) if the instance held a vote on the matter id naturally accept the majority choice.

    1. if privacy is a concern (which it should be because Facebook), we’re already screwed. Fediverse interactions (comments posts votes) are a matter of public record. So even if we block threads at the instance level, they can still zuck up our data so we’re not really gaining anything there.

    Edit: if you’re going to down ote, be better than reddit and expand your thoughts. We’re here to discuss, not act like children redditors









  • Interesting.

    I managed to find them while exploring a related kink that I would like to avoid naming as I don’t enjoy being kinkshamed.

    The experience with the discord community I had joined was positive at first but became negative over a series of poorly moderated interactions and increasingly poor community rule implementations.

    That being said, the thing I found in common was that the women who were interested in that lifestyle tends to enjoy having an easier life and not having to worry about the every career bullshit. Instead getting to focus on keeping a house neat and orderly, ensuring meals were worked and other activities.

    More power to them I suppose, reminds me a little too much of secret society by nofx or the 3 slogans from 1984
