Oh I didnโt even realize it worked that way. I think thatโs kinda nice though, so you donโt get partial conversations. It is a really bad thing though if thereโs a toxic instance that continues to harass you, so it should probably change for that reason alone. I wonder if they can still see your posts if youโve blocked their instance?
Time to celebrate by blocking hexbear!
The average smash bros player. Iโm one of them lol. At least going to local fighting game tournies are hella fun. I got bodied really hard at a tournament we had at a bar and it was still super fun, entrance pool feed is usually like $5 or less and theyโre pretty chill.
If youโve seen the just chatting category, this is nothing new. People have been skirting ToS since the beginning. Thatโs why thereโs an option to allow mature audiences or not, although it could be a lot more granular since mature language is basically on the same maturity as full blown nudity according to the option.
Being in control of who sees my post. Lemmy still lacks more granular post visibility like Mastodon does. If I restrict a message to followers on Mastodon, I know just they would see it, and so would their current instances which are much smaller and fragmented. Compared that to any social media where thatโs going to easily be tracked on both sides. Federating with threads doesnโt change this. Also as you said, lack of analytics is nice. Privacy could definitely be improved though. Mastodon direct messaging is still weird and really should use e2ee.
Why do you hate user choice so much?
Sick, I get tons of more interesting content while being with a Mastodon instance I trust, a nice FOSS client to explore the content, and keep my privacy! If this actually bothered me, I could simply click the three dots and block the instance, so surely that shouldnโt be a big deal, right?
Budgets exist
You guys frontin like we havenโt all done that as well
