Why is it a silly thing to do? A non-federating lemmy instance is just another content aggregator site like Reddit.
In many ways, it's a better experience than federated Lemmy. It's just harder to recruit members.

They're not.
Who is stopping them now? Because if you say "the police", you're going to have to cite some sources. They not only don't stop anyone from being raped, they routinely side with the rapists, or even employ them directly.
Having the legal right and feeling in any way empowered to exercise that right are wildly different things.
They make me continually glad for switching to a credit union.
Wait, are people unaware that forums, Reddit, and Lemmy are also social media?
Social networking sites are a type of social media. Discussion groups are another.
Is the 4 column layout not standard on Mastodon?
It's a poor design if what you want to do is emulate a centralized social media service.
But maybe we should stop trying to do that.
ActivityPub works like a magazine subscription. They don't send you back issues for subscribing.
We, uh, reproduce just fine. Having few to no sexual urges is rather different from never having sex. Plenty of people eat even when they're not hungry, or for reasons other than hinger.
Asexuality and sex-repulsion are orthogonal spectra.
Yes, yes, of course. Why didn't the author think about you in all of this?
Lemmy is not a forum, though, any more than Mastodon is. It's a totally different, if relates, form factor and provises a radically different user experience.
