It was, and that is why a lot of us left .world

Nah mate, most of us are autistic Linux home user scientist egg head engineers like you

One less finger, or one extra finger?

Makes me smile to see people recognizing me outside of my Screenshot posts. I didnโt realize that I was known outside of the gaming community I post in though lol

What instance did you go to then? I don't keep up on "the best" instances, or those that defederate or block certain things. I was part of kbin.social at first, then moved to .world.

Good question. I don't know how many fingers a lemming has neither do I know how many a mouse has. I use a mouse in the prompt as @[email protected] does not know what animal is a lemming.

Lemm.ee the one that shows in my account name. They prioritize uptime and connection/association. We choose what instances and communities we want to see. Blocking is our responsibility.
-
But not .world or .ml? I got an account in both and I didnโt know those places were disliked until I started getting automatic bans only for being in those instances.
Having to read through the entire lore of lemmy and get informed on all the instances and relationships between them seems like a nightmare. You make an account on one instances then after few days you get told that your instance is literally satan and you should switch to a different one. It's like with Linux distros. No mater which one you pick, you chose wrong.
The high drama is as hilarious as it is pathetic.

I don't think defed has been that bad, and I think over time we'll get more features to avoid having to defed (aside from illegal content or spam).
Like users being able to block users and/or communities by instance, or admins being able to set default block lists for new users, or users being able to easily share block lists.

All of the biggest instances could take turns running ads for themselves lol

All that does is cost them money for the adds, then increase their running costs by adding users.
It's good for the community, but not great for them.

Oh good. It was just mass spamming. I was very confused when I got that same message from 3 different accounts, but it was the same message with the same links. I thought I was being targeted.
Yeah I got a whole bunch for whatever reason.

And jeans

Yep. I made a point to troll then with that at the time.

Unremoval of Piracy Communities - Lemmy.World
Hello World! As weโve all known and talked about quite a lot, we previously blocked several piracy-focused communities. These communities, as announced [https://lemmy.world/post/3234363], were: - [email protected] [/c/[email protected]], - [email protected] [/c/[email protected]], - [email protected] [/c/[email protected]], and their local counterparts as follow up actions. In our removal announcement [https://lemmy.world/post/3234363], we stated that we will continue to look into this more in detail, and re-allow these communities if and when we deem it safe. It was a solid concern at the time, because we were already receiving takedown requests as well as constant attacks, and didnโt want to put our volunteer team at risk. We had zero measures in place, and the tools we had were insufficient to deal with anything at scale. Well, after back and forth with some very cool people, and starting to have proper measures as well as tooling to protect ourselves, we decided itโs time to welcome these communities back again. Long live the IT nerds! We know itโs been a rough ride with everything, and weโd like to thank every one of you who were understanding of us, and stayed with us all the way. Please know that as users, you are what makes this platform what it is, and damned we be if we ever forget it. With love, and as always, stay safe in the high seas! Lemmy.world Team โค๏ธ

Apparently it once was but was unblocked

Later on there was drama because they blocked it a second time anyway. xD

I find Heinz beans a bit watery. I prefer the supermarket own brands to Heinz... Branston's are much better and tastier, with a thicker sauce. Still, YMMV and all that jazz.
Oh, I forgot an annoying trivial issue: the Heinz cans don't stack up well (lock into place with one can on top of another).

Arrrr! Welcome aboard, ye scallywags!
