Yep. 2 very simple rules for dealing with guns
- A gun is always loaded (even when it's not)
- Never point your gun at something you don't intend to destroy

I'm still convinced that he's actively and intentionally trying to destroy Twitter.
Well, let's talk about when Twitter was founded...
He's one of those CEOs that teams have two meetings for: one where the CEO joins and they only say things the CEO wants to hear, and a second to actually discuss the relevant issues.
I mean... It's Las Vegas. You don't go to Vegas expecting a vacation experience free from the perverse corruption of money.
The only difference is who pays you to do it 😁
Try finding a dumb tv for sale of relevant size and quality. I know you don't have to connect it to wifi... Usually. But I just want a TV that doesn't have all this shit in it to begin with.
They have become the evil they were once apart from.
In a streaming landscape dominated by ad companies like Google and Amazon, Roku was once the viable alternative. Unfortunately, in the 21st century, enshitification comes for us all eventually.
Give me freedom from advertising or give me death.
It's not as easy as moderating individual posts. Remember, Lemmy is decentralized. If you start your own Lemmy server and I federated with it, I'll get all the stuff you post on my instance too (intentionally oversimplified).
Its up to you to moderate communities on your instance the way you see fit, and up to me to moderate mine. Even though our instances are federated, I can't moderate on your behalf. It just isn't feasible both in terms of the technology and in terms of the sheer volume of content you would have to try to moderate.
If you have a community that posts a mix of things I agree with and things I don't, I really only have a couple options on my end. Basically I can block that community on my instance or block your instance altogether.
The reason why someone might block a community may be more about the legal risk than any moral justification. Depending on where you are, it might be illegal to even host that information. And since Lemmy instances cache posts from other instances, it could be argued that because that community is federated with your instance, you're responsible for the content posted there.
Just as venture capitalism demands.
Hey now, this court case is about the presidential ability to assassinate rivals, not the presidential ability to use the armed forces against American citizens on American soil. We would need the national guard for that.
