There are two Linux paradigms that I consider stupid. One is the use of centralized software repositories managed by the distro instead of individual developer maintained installers. The other one is file system case sensibility. They already admitted defeat on the first one with the rise of containerised applications. I wonder how much longer they’ll keep the charade on the second one.
You’re putting too much importance into this matter. If this is distressing you should let it go and think about something else.
Dude, chill. Even if you’re right, having a meltdown on github doesn’t help anybody. Go outside and take a breath.
What I’d really like to have is a tool that lists blocked communities. That information is not as public as defederated instances.
Linux Hater’s Blog was half satire and half honest criticism.
This reminds me of the old linux hater’s blog post “At least we don’t have any viruses”.
Under his tweet a lot of “verified” (=right wing) accounts plauded this and asked to fight employers who fired employees for having written something homophobic
Any examples of that?
And those who want to review every single one manually can still do that.
But will they? This tool promotes blindly trusting another instance block list without due diligence from the admin.
this process and improves Lemmy’s capability to protect it’s users from spam and brigading
That assumes defederation only happens in those cases. You have an account from lemmy.world, so I guess you trust that instance. You know, the same instance that preemptively defederated from hexbear.net for political reasons. You see the problem?
This is a terrible idea that steers lemmy into being an echo chamber. Let admins use their own judgement.
