I think this was the comment that pushed me to actually contribute to lemmy code. Thanks

There was a reason why southern Baptists split

My perception is you are trying to talk people out of donating to maintain lemmy, while using it yourself?

What does this even have to do with piracy ???

Your information, the data itself, goes through their code to reach most people on lemmy.

There is piracy and then there is talking others out of donating

Not all problems can be solved using one method

Why don’t you a pull request and fix it yourself ? If you have the ability to recognize and know what to fix, and if you care, do it!

I know I’m too lazy to help them, what is your excuse ?

I swear, I might just get off the fence and help them myself on unrelated issues, it’s making me that unsettled

But you use the software they make…

Pretty sure it’s an oversight but devs are overworked, really overworked

There are many more important things to fix before this.

But an issue will put it in the todo list

I think it sometimes can be the case

I am a lazy unreliable person. But I find value in what you found and want it fixed.

If you don’t do it, it probably will not get fixed so fast

I think you should also make a GitHub issue too

I make the bed to prevent bugs and spiders from crawling into the sheets

Often a larger problem can be solved by lots of smaller problems being at cross purposes

American soft power sabotaged again, institutional memory about how to run the empire lost. I don’t see the downside

Most people have limits ; I can see this man finding out he has a very small moral code he cannot ignore.

Or he simply lost a bureaucratic turf war. There is a lot of reorganization going on , lots of power struggles. And he decided to whitewash and reinvent himself. Even if this guy is legitimate, there will be many of the later later

These comments are an eye opening experience for me; and I’m not sure I like that feature. It seems whatever the good it does, it’s open for endless abuse because at the end of the day, we are all human and petty at times.

The true power of the fediverse is that little dictatorships should, in principle, balance out each other

I’m clueless about the discussions about this: but my concern is that, over time (years) most user activity will be on a handful of well managed instances. Smaller instances will come and go.

Seems the working fediverse needs server teams that are not too big or small.

I feel gloomy thinking this will be a bottleneck for diversity, expansion and growth on lemmy.
