  • Because of the social expectation that Lemmy sets. The social expectation is that moderators have the option of defederating anyone on their users’ behalves. They shouldn’t have that right.

    I understand that moderators exist across multiple jurisdictions, and their servers fall under multiple laws. So, while a moderator would be able to control his own server’s content under my system, his users would be able to login to other servers which he lacked control of. Granting mods control over local content, but not user interaction with the network.

    Balancing expectation between user freedom and server ownership – the mod also being able to whitelist servers he’ll accept other users from.





  • Every single time people want to have an unmoderated, unchecked space, it’s because they — you — want to be able to air your most unsavoury opinions with impunity.

    Exactly!

    Then come the Nazis, then come the CSAM, the decapitation videos, the harassment and doxxing, and so on until some part of it passes your personal line in the sand for what’s acceptable.

    That would be up to the server owner (Moderation). There’s nothing wrong with decapitation videos.

    Then all of a sudden it’s “Wah wah, mommy give me moderation”. It’s the same for all this freeze peach crap.

    There’s already moderation built into this.







  • No. I grew up with parents who cut me off from the entire world and now I can’t make friends without it getting awkward. It’s usually because I don’t know proper guy behavior, and they end up thinking I’m gay, but a new low was achieved recently, where I was actually the problem this time by leaning into the stereotype and freaking all the guys I know out.

    I just grew tired of getting friends, hanging out the first time, and never getting a call back. Or, “if you need anything, let me know/hey bud, how’s it going?” Making random ass promises that we’d hang out. Then never following through. So I just leaned the hell into it. I don’t even remember what I said. A lot of the guys have stopped being friendly with me now though. Used to talk about their home countries and shit.

    It was just frustrating, trying to find authenticity and constantly getting people who couldn’t see me as a person. It had happened over and over and over and over. And they all just wiggle out of it with fakeness, so they don’t have to be a bad person. Which hurts more than them actually manning up and just telling me the truth.
