When you get one, look up adapters that let you connect it to refillable co2

Wait hold on, so someone buys tickets to an event, show up, and have to buy canned water.

What, in your imagination, should be the next steps so they “don’t consent to being abused”?

Non human origin matters because it’s easy to flood the field with this stuff.

If finding quality videos becomes a needle in a haystack amidst ai generated bullshit, each looking to passively earn a few bucks, overall quality of life will suffer as the ouroboros eats its tail.

It is about not wanting to be federated with instances with transphobic admins.

I might be missing something, but I believe an admin being potentially transphobic only matters if they do not moderate transphobic content that leaks out to other instances. I don’t think I’ve seen transphobic content leak out of programming.dev.

That said, I’ve read some of Adas comments on the intention behind defederation, and blahaj. What I’ve learned is that Blahaj wans set up as a safe space, so 0 tolerance is understandable, and is well within their rights to establish and enforce.

Coming from someone who is just looking to Lemmy as a reddit alternative, it’s simultaneously cool that communities can do this, and a little unfortunate that with Lemmy being as small as it is (compared to reddit), we are defederating over single comment threads. Again, blahaj was intended to be a safe space and has no obligation to be a part of the “reddit replacement” I’m looking for, so if they deem it necessary then good on them.

As someone who only recently migrated to programing.dev, it feels like I’m building on shifting sand.

I’m just sitting here really confused at the choice to defederate based on a single chat.

Most folks at programming.dev, myself included, are there because it’s related to their profession. That’s what drew us there.

It baffles me to think that the entire instance has been judged and deemed unworthy because of a single comment chain that had disagreements.

You can block users you don’t want to interact with. Some instances breed a potentially nasty sentiment or attitude, and when there are too many users from that instance to block, that’s when I’d consider defederation. But a single conversation thread, involving a single person?

I’ve got no say in how another instance is ran. Just makes me a little sad about a much more fragmented future of Lemmy.
