I probably should have asked where they're launching from, whether it's one of their own built launch sites like Brownsville area or from a launch site like Canaveral.

I just remember that the last launch from Brownsville sent debris in all directions for a couple miles and damaged a lot of non SpaceX personal property like cars.

What's the over/under on insurance claims from a badly planned launch pad this time?

Bigotry is "obstinate or unreasonable attachment to a belief, opinion, or faction, in particular prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group"

When they are outright denying abuse of a minority group and supporting the power that abused, that becomes bigotry as an example.

I would also expect exploding heads to be defederated due to the same reasons.

We should apply that evenly and if the admin does not, then I will likely move to a server that does.

As it stands now, it would have been nice if there was an announcement but even the examples brought up in this thread of "discussion about defederation in other instances" it was a user who asked why a server was defederated and the mod responded. There was no vote or community feedback at the start.

You mean like the rule that states no bigotry?

Possibly, though spez didn't have the option of joining the other servers that are in link and have looser rules regarding what content is acceptable.

This user has all the ability to join any and all of the instances they desire, but chose to come to this one and then threw a fit about the moderation style.

Tell me about the other Reddit clones that I could join to avoid spez. Please. Make that connection so that your point holds any water.

Oh no....

Anyway...

Cool story, go be a leader you like then.

Maybe if the API were the only part of that. It was part of the problem but the other parts were losing extensive modtools to actually moderate the subreddits you go to bitch in, with no replacements despite a decade of promises. Also the whole brush off of accessibility tools for users with visual/cognitive/physical impairments which only just got an exemption.

There's a huge difference. Reddit has people working for free to moderate content with no support from the site and decided to take those tools away without replacing them. The people who provide value to the company thus being shafted.

Lemmy has tons of instances so you can find the one with the rules you like and join there while still getting access to all of the "subreddits".

So no, it's not the same at all. It would be more akin to demanding that all of the third party apps have the same tools and access across all devices despite there being plenty of other serviceable options.

Fair, but you don't get to go into someone's house and demand they act according to your rules.

If you want the change so bad, go to a different house or make your own.

Then join a different server?
