It’s apparently early in development, but there’s an ActivityPub implementation of wikis made by one of Lemmy’s dev.

I think the idea of a megathread is to give the opportunity to avoid a topic that is flooding the community to people not interested.

Bedankt!

Translated in french :)

Yes, good point. It’s more like: we as a society must decide what is and isn’t acceptable as far as free speech goes and enshrine this in law. Then it is a matter of applying the laws rather than judging case by case as individuals.

In this case, The political discourse of the devs doesn’t seem directly related to Lemmy’s development. Of course, libre software is very much in line with leftist ideology; what I mean is that they do not seem to impose their views or skew ours through their work as devs. They don’t even use their position as devs to publicize their discourse; people had to dig to find them.

If their political discourse is harmful, I’d argue that it is not to us, as individuals, to condemn them and to choose an adequate punishment, e.g. boycott the seemingly unrelated Lemmy project.

Of course, it is obviously to us, as individuals, to decide if we want to participate on Lemmy, or even donate to the devs for their work on Lemmy. I choose to do both even when I don’t agree with the devs and when I think their discourse about human right in the CCP and Russia might be harmful.

It seems to have become a habit that most good things about the internet is linked to the EU. I’m really grateful. That being said, I hope that Lemmy can become a collaborative project uniting a lot of devs rather than rely on two people.

About the scandal; as long as their opinions do not influence the platform I don’t see them as relevant to Lemmy. If they are illegal, let justice do its work.

I tried the fediverse with Mastodon to replace Twitter, but it didn’t work out. On Twitter, I was exclusively following accounts of personalities/organizations. As these accounts did not make the switch from Twitter to Mastodon, there was little use.

I feel like the fediverse works way better with content aggregation. I don’t really care who specifically is on Lemmy, as long as there is content and discussion. So far it’s been really nice.

I fully agree that it’s simpler to create an account on a centralized website.

In my understanding, your comments have to be stored on a server whatever the centralization. The fact that you can choose on which server they are stored is the decentralization.
