"This is a revolution, dammit! We're going to have to offend SOMEbody!" John Adams, 1776
@nachocarreras That is not a bad list to be honest. I dont know #3 but the other ones I know a bit and look like places worth checking out.
@toplesstopics Hi, there is an initiative for a new server list underway and i see an issue with a proposed rule. The thing is that nudity and pornography are proposed to be treated the same, and that feels wrong.
I thought before i say something, you might be a lot more qualified to propose a better solution. I hope this is a reasonable request, if so please share your thoughts on this.
Easy to read pdf:
https://jeffreyfreeman.me/files/united_federation_of_instances_proposal.pdf
Please see chapter 3, rule 6 for what i mean.
Github repo:
https://gitlab.com/ufoi/constitution/-/blob/master/proposal.tex
(line 173 is what i mean, currently:
\item Nudity and pornography must be posted either unlisted, with a content warning, or both.)
Also please feel free to open this as an issue over on the Repor.. if someone disagrees with the direction the current draft goes we want to open public discourse aboutit and make sure we consider all views before any decisions are made.
The contributors file is now up for everyone who has contributed to The United Federation of Instances so far. Anyone I missed let me know and I'll add you.

Global warming begain give or take around 1900, so we are talking abotu 200 years since thent he change is about 1 degree celsius.
The ice age lasted 11,500 years and represented a total change (compared to the temp at 1900) of a 5 degree celsius change.
So that means we are talking abou a 0.08 degree change per 100 years for the ice age. Compare that to the 0.5 degree change per 100 years we are seeing. That means the current change in temperature is 6.5x faster than what happened during the Ice age... more or less.
@realcaseyrollins You can just say hi, you dont need to make up random questions you know ill answer just to talk to me :)
11.5K years, the last one anyway.
@cwh050 If you need any help reach out anytime.
@dashrandom No date is set yet... my plan was to look towards critical mass rather than deadlines. Once everything is good enough we have a good set of instances interested to join, then it is probably only then we will set a deadline for final comments.
Right now my intent is to right a technical bylaws document. As I write it any changes to the proposal I will make sure are incorperated into the bylaws.. then we will have two documents to review, one summarizing the other more or less.
Another FYI. Since everyone here helped give feedback for the document I'd like to add you all to the list of people who contributed (its a contributors file)...Few things
1) If anyone who asked to be a contributor doesnt want their handle listed, just let me know, thats not a problem (do it privately in DM, not here to reduce spam).
2) I will just add everyones fediverse handle by default, but if you want I am happy to replace it with some combination of your name, handle, or email.
3) Everyone who contributes in any way is allowed to get their name in the list, so dont be shy to reach out.

@ceoln Travel through time, that way I can keep going back to the point where I make the wish and then wish for the other 2 as well.
So what I'm hearing is I need closer to 2 billion accounts tto make 1 billion per dollar... Ok, I am ok with that.
Someone called it the first digital constitituion :) That got me excited. Plus everyone of these people were really heklpful with feedback, so we got some good heads on this.
