op: lemmy is so intolerant against my views!

insert untitled goose with a knife chasing op: what views, fucker?

it’s not always like this, but it happens so often i’m not surprised

Yeah and it’s a good signal about what each instance is like, and where to move to

it’s giving a chatbot, your pfp is genai slop, and by now i think you’ve been reliably informed that fedi in general is generally anti-ai. there is a couple of very good reasons why things are this way. if you don’t like this, you are free to fuck off to linkedin, lobsters, hn or some other corporate hellhole

very few instances have it enabled. calculating it from non-home instance is a bit pointless because heavily downvoted stuff tends to be moderated out and therefore inaccessible

if you mean downvotes in general, i think that’s a very good thing, because when you disagree with something, you can just downvote and move on, and when downvotes are out, it’s a shield for trolls and assholes, and additionally when disagreeing you feel compelled to comment instead and end up like hexbear

ferrets are already domesticated, but i think that having more of/some other domesticated weasel would be neat. imagine pet stoat, or mink, or perhaps wolverine

cheetahs were tamed by ancient egyptians, and even today you can find some random gulf sheikh with pet cheetah. the problem with domestication is that they’re very hard to breed in captivity

did she just memoryholed all of the summer 2025 airstrikes

last time i’ve checked yes it’s gone as default, but it’s still an option. lemmy devs openly stated that anyone can do whatever they want on their own instances and they can’t influence it (except that for the longest time they’ve controlled the largest instance, not anymore of course)

lemmy is a piece of opinionated foss software that attempts to be an alternative to reddit, coded by a tankie

kbin is a piece of opinionated foss software that attempts to be an alternative to reddit digg, coded by a gun nut and abandoned. mbin is a continuation

piefed is a piece of opinionated foss software that attempts to be an alternative to reddit, coded by a control freak with (formerly) hard-coded questionable moderation

there’s a couple of others like misskey/sharkey. all of them are broken and wonderful. piefed seems to be more feature-rich. by way of miracle, somehow these are interoperable with each other and in more broken way, with mastodon. i heard there lie horrors within lemmy codebase, and updating it is major pain. these all attempt to do slightly different things and so features provided by each are different (kbi/mbin has separate upvote and boost, and who up/downvoted/boosted is always visible to public, all of that is always technically public, but hidden in lemmy)

ketamine was only invented during vietnam war

seems unwise to do anything dangerous when some random ass chem undergrad from shaanxi takes you on an adventure that you’ll never remember

not sure about your local critters, but red foxes also have vocalizations that scare people sometimes

e: if there are lynxes around then maybe foxes aren’t, because these two compete heavily
