Just makes decentralization more painless

By making it more centralized?

Auto ban sounds terrifying and definitely won’t be abused

Or firing workers

I’d take that over people asking if it’d be possible to use the emergency alerting system to inform people…

Could even be this one based on how it’s going

Or what they showed him after the 2nd affair came out and he said still wouldn’t leave?

As always Jeffries is focused on what Americans are worried about in this situation. we will get answers, not on how they’re doing a ponzi scheme and circular investing but who got gpus

‘The American people deserve answers’

3 minutes ago 12:14 CST Earlier on Thursday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries told reporters that espionage allegations at Nvidia will be investigated by Democratic members of Congress who will head important committees when Democrats assume the majority in January.

Jeffries, a potential candidate for House majority leader, said “the American people deserve answers” and that Congress will “get to the bottom of whether America’s national security has been compromised.”

It’s not so much they bring in quality support, more that it let’s them have cover when there are issues.

everything is on fire, vendor is on it is better optics

Not if just using a link to said material. Media blocks would only cover uploads.

Not to mitigate the issue of csam but also completey separate issue from moderation or federation judgment

It’s odd equating csam (absolutely terrible) and trolling (something that the definition of is extremely flexible). Hell even establishing bot behavior is difficult if not using the bot tag or account.

All in all apart from the csam everything you described is dependent on the instance so would not work with a top level

As with anything it depends on who is in control of the moderation or the ones doing the moderation.

And part of it sounds like a centralized layer on top of federation that would just be the antithesis of what the purpose of federation is.

I know you are thinking of csam specifically but as described could end up giving certain mods and instances an essential veto.

Based on certain instances cough lemmy.world and piefed.social I see that going extremely poorly

What about when one of the trolls is the dev of say piefed? 🤔

You aren’t wrong, it’s gone through many itterations from the initial block. Even now it’s still the initial config hidden to users. Hell Grail is even saying it’s still there but only idiots would keep it on. (ironic considering it’s Rimu’s default and piefed.socials setup)

During the initial setup process there is a series of messages printed on the screen: “Added banned instance xyz, added banned instance abc, etc” followed by “Manage banned instances at /admin/federation.” The list of initially defederated (banned) instances is:

‘anonib.al’, ‘lemmygrad.ml’, ‘gab.com’, ‘rqd2.net’, ‘exploding-heads.com’,
‘hexbear.net’, ‘hilariouschaos.com’,
‘threads.com’, ‘noauthority.social’, ‘pieville.net’, ‘links.hackliberty.org’,
‘poa.st’, ‘freespeechextremist.com’, ‘bae.st’, ‘nicecrew.digital’,
‘detroitriotcity.com’, ‘gregtech.eu’,
‘pawoo.net’, ‘shitposter.club’, ‘spinster.xyz’, ‘catgirl.life’, ‘gameliberty.club’,
‘yggdrasil.social’, ‘beefyboys.win’, ‘brighteon.social’, ‘cum.salon’, ‘wizard.casa’,
‘maga.place’, ‘lemmychan.org’

View related source code. As the message suggests, admins can go to the Federation part of the Admin area to change which instances you federate with at any time.

I mean technically not hard coded, but when it’s the default it becomes the standard. Of course the biggest issue is it’s only viable to admins not the users so

🙃

Piefed dev for involved in a disagreement about something, made a post explaining how correct they were, and deleted responses from the b other parties involved.

I don’t remember the details but it’s not constructive to a healthy community.

Rimu made a platform to be as hostile as possible those who don’t fit his image and bans anyone who questions it. But since he’s not the Lemmy devs people here fawn over him as he is worse than anything the lemmy devs have done.

It getting replaced by piefed
