@Wander The fediverse has had the issue of a "block everyone first and ask questions later" culture since Gargron went around touting it to journalists as "Twitter without Nazis." It attracted the kind of people that want the internet, if not the world at large to be a safe space devoid of people that disagree with them. That line of thinking is also really rampant among Reddit moderators, and Lemmy instances tend to give you the worst of both worlds.

The #Fediverse needs to learn some serious conflict resolution...

If we ever aspire to become a serious alternative to corporate platforms we can't continue with this behavior. Let me explain.

Two days ago someone created a "The_Donald" community of a well-known #Lemmy instance. Immediately there were cries for defederation, blocking, and suspicion about the admin letting racists run rampant on his instance.

What ultimately happened was that when the admin logged in they removed that community. But before they even had time to realize what was happening they were already being accused of stuff and if any instance heeded the call to block, it would have caused damage to the users who would have their subscriptions / follows severed.

Some users who've just arrived from Reddit and bring a fresh perspective are already wary of the shit show this can become.

That instance resisted massive blocks because it was large enough. But what if it was smaller?

This guy built a fully-functional 32-bit #RiscV computer in #Terraria. It can even run compiled #Rust programs. 🤯 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXPiqk0-zDY

On Monday morning we (Mozilla) detected a very large crash spike affecting #Firefox users on Linux, specifically on an older version of a Debian-based distribution.

It turned out to be an interesting bug involving the #Linux kernel and #Google JavaScript code so let me tell you about it.

This is also my experience on fedi every time you clowns spam with with whatever random chart you found on the internet

"typing speed"? I prefer the term: "terminal velocity"

Does anyone have any technology that works? I am becoming despondent over the state of things. So much technological progress and yet everything seems to be broken (or must be updated, which amounts to the same thing in user experience) all the time.

Sorry.

It’s kinda sad to see people think I’m ’bribed’ by Meta.. I have not signed anything, I did not attend anything from them nor did I accept anything but still the worst is assumed when I don’t agree on blocking a still in development project that we don’t even know the (domain)name from right away

I don’t have any love for Meta or any of such companies whatsoever, that’s why I’m putting all I have in these platforms and guard it with my life so don’t expect Meta to get a ‘free pass’ on anything
