Agree 100%, as a rule of thumb, if you agree on almost all that you see in your instance or with your peers, and you don’t experience some level “being triggered” rest assured you are on an ecco chamber. But is true that sometimes you want some really specific content, that is when it is useful a non generalistic instance.

That name, that just made my day

“I’ll wear them down.”

Is there any alternatove protocol?

P2P social networks would be any good in that regard? 🤔

Really? Would that imply too much of code re-writing?

I’ll take a look at the WebRTC thing, thanks

I wonder if that concept can be made in a distributed manner, like P2P

Thanks!

I’ll have to give it a try

I wonder how XMPP compares to Jami

Nice

Which instance do you host? I mean, in which platform?

So, you mean that don’t “gladly recieve” that kind of user but you don’t ban them from using lemmy from their own instance, and even of you wantted to, you can’t.

That sound really healthy in a broad sense , I mean for everyone even of it sound counterintuitive. For a moment I thought you can ban people from using Lemmy in general (not only from using your instance).

I think that FOSS in general has a good chance in the long run, and non-algoritmic feeds probably will help so low down the polarization or at least won’t make ot wors (I hope).

Right, agree, moderation seems to consume a lot of time to get it right.

Excellent, maybe I’ll try to run a bit of the fediverse on a raspberry, thanks for the data @ajz

That is why I love the fediverse in general! But when nutomic talks about the ex redditors from r/GenderCritical says

“Many reddit alternatives have been happy to embrace “reddits rejects”, no matter how bigoted those communities are, in the name of “free speech”. We don’t agree with this view, or with those who have nostalgia for a non-existent reddit past where it was more “free” and bigoted than it is now.”

Is he talking about the instance in particular or refearing to lemmy in general? Maybe I misunderstood that

I mean, in the broad sense of the term

Is nice to know lemmy’s history but the problem is:

who defines what is bigotry and what is not?

when a post si too comunist/libertarian/left/right… to be alowed?

The best of federates soclal network for me is that you can be in touch with you want to and be far away from those you don’t want, but without the need to ask for your opposing group to be silenced, that just make the convivence online more pleasing

Is always healthy to have more instances but I wonder how hard it is to run your own mastodon instance? Is it mandatory to have a fixed IP? Any special hardware?

Exactly, ot really doesn’t matter why you dont whant to use X or Y program, is the fact that you have done something usefull about it instead of complaining or something like that

Exellent explanation.
