As far as I can tell this is just an article where someone’s theorizes Musk’s plan?

Woohoo!

I don’t get how we can block. I long press anything and I get a browser menu…

EDIT: Figured it out!

I think it would be beneficial to start enforcing not using that setting. Don’t receive posts from anyone that has unspecified at the server.

I’m not sure either understand the fact Lemmy has language settings that aren’t apparently used. Seems this can be solved by just setting the language to “English” for instance…

These are the comments that make Lemmy great.

I can’t help but wonder if this would be better served at the client level. Either way I miss this feature.

As long as people understand the circumstances of that instance I have absolutely no problem with people finding the place they belong.

I just hope there are not new users who don’t realize they may not be federated with the larger community.

Without a doubt I miss the more normal IAMA’s also.

One of the most successful IAMA’s of all time was the vacuum repair guy and he absolutely was fascinating.

Voat was a replica of Reddit in design. One centralized server. We would have ended up in the same crappy place even if that were a success because at some point they would have wanted to monetize it also.

You have to do some reading and learn about the technology behind Lemmy and federation to understand.

Personally I do not see them access to their network ad-free. Maybe there is some data extraction value in outside people interacting with their users but I just don’t see it.

Use the LCS app to add communities automatically to your instance. I was quite disappointed to see that I had to manually add every community and wouldn’t be able to have the classic ALL page I was used to but this solved that. It runs on a schedule and automatically adds communities based on your criteria.
