You are perfectly demonstrating how authoritarian habits survive by being trivialized at the stage where they’re still “just a timeout,” and if you genuinely believe people wouldn’t kill each other over disagreement the moment consequences disappear, then you must have an extraordinarily optimistic view of human nature.

Mind elaborating?

I believe that because Reddit is generally left-leaning and the majority of those users are opposed to AI, we may see a disproportionate rise in AI-generated right-wing content, which could influence public opinion. And the pentagon also showed interest in using LLMs to gaslight people.

I have tried many of them out of curiosity, but this is the only one I use regularly. I still prefer Reddit, though. I think Lemmy fragments communities and has too many memes and too much U.S.-centric news. I expected a federated platform to offer more diversity of thought, but it feels like the same kind of groupthink you see on Reddit.

Yeah it has a download to and a download option.

Nah I like different folders for the different media types

The music was just an example, what about movies, books, etc.

That just causes fragmentation, in Reddit all the community is in a single place, that’s what made it popular otherwise we could go back to using forums. Each person chooses a different one and then we end up with dozens of barely active forums.

I like themed instances and would enjoy them more if the All feed were personalized instead of the same for everyone. They are nice for browsing different content, sort of like a multireddit but choosing an instance that fits you best isn’t possible, you would need to analyze your votes compared to other users’ votes on each instance. Also I may not like tomorrow a topic I like today so choosing an instance based on a theme makes no sense to me.

The government only released a modeled video and a book to prove their story why should anyone bother with something that’s clearly fake.

This seems like overcompensating for the child limit. Are they going to be like a yoyo, swinging from one extreme to the other until they find a balance, like all things should be?

Or maybe somewhere where you don’t have to spend half of your salary paying rent? Like China.

Imperialist shill.

Maybe don’t stick your nose where it isn’t asked, you’re not a mod here.
