Get yourself a pot on the kitchen counter and ram these awkwardly shapen fuckers in there handle down

It isn't too hard if you're willing to fail a lot first. It takes time, but I really turned my life around eventually. Even still I feel like an imposter, but an imposter with plenty friends anyway now
Oh definitely, I fully agree. It's just a lot of people need to stop approaching open source with an immediate inherent level of trust that they wouldn't normally give to closed source. It's only really safer once you know it's been audited.
Though one of the major issues is that people get comfortable with that idea and assume for every open source project there is some other good Samaritan auditing it
And I'm sure there are many cases where an attempted EEE failed, but that doesn't get documented in the history, because you only notice it when it is effective.
Meta isn't even entering the Lemmy space yet, they're entering the Mastodon space. They can hardly extend and extinguish Lemmy when they are just barely feature compatible to begin with. Yes it's all Fediverse, but it's pretty different.
The audience, use cases and purposes are different between Lemmy and Threads. At least for now. Consider defederating if that changes
Yeah, but if they do try to dictate standards, then react, defederate, that's all I'm saying. I just don't think we need to be proactive here, our tools to react are fast acting and simple.
If they do go for the dreaded Embrace, Extend, Extinguish method, then let's ride the benefits of "Embrace" and lose them when they move on to the next steps.
You joke, but here in Scotland, or even moreso over in Australia, "cunt" is a very great and versatile word that can have any number of meanings depending on context, intonation and adjacent words. That meaning tends to get lost on others
I was just making a joke about the predominant Spanish pronunciation in Europe, with the "th", as you say, vs the predominant pronunciation in South America, where those those graphemes have distinct non-"th" phonemes. So it sounds like here in Europe they have a lisp, that's the joke
Given that everything right now is just speculation - I say sit tight, observe what actually happens and respond appropriately if it does start to go wrong. Defederation is very easy, we can do it when we need to
WhatsApp is owned and fully controlled by Meta. The Fediverse is federated and that's the beauty of it. They can't control it
Only in European Spanish, where they like to lisp every word
There's no way to limit the amount a community appears in All. You can block it completely, that's it. Perhaps a way to limit would be good, try bringing it up on the Lemmy GitHub and see. Otherwise, you've got to encourage people to post less, which is no good for Lemmy.
