Ok that's fair enough, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree and end it at that.

For the record I apologize if I came off as too harsh to their claims. I should've been more understanding. I'm very used to people making false claims, especially ones of a severe nature, and when I saw they were making a claim and presenting evidence that wasn't supporting those claims I thought it was one of those. I apologize if there was a misunderstanding.

I don't think so. It's pretty toxic to accuse a person of bigotry when they aren't posting things that are bigoted, and actually have and enforce rules in their community against bigotry. All simply because of a content genre they dislike.

I don't like the format and I agree that there's reasons to be skeptical but I don't think it's okay to outright accuse a person of being bigoted when they have not been bigoted. If they had shown evidence of the person being bigoted, rather than their evidence being a guilt by association, that would be different but I haven't seen such evidence and it seems like their community is largely hostile to bigotry.

Sounds to me more like you personally dislike a thing and are trying to push it off as being bigoted because you don't like it. Listen I don't like the Greentext communities either, I think their jokes are more on the stupid side, but what they aren't is bigoted, at least I haven't been able to find any examples looking through those communities.

If you don't like them that is okay, but you shouldn't spread lies about people or places just because you personally don't like them.

So you're upset they allow a Greentext community? That doesn't seem like a good reason considering lemmy.ml has one and posts in that one are of similar standards and qualities.

I did read through those posts and they themselves seem benign. Especially compared to other communities like conservative which contain legitimately hateful shit.

I think a big part of it is just that many want control, they want to limit what we're capable of doing. They especially don't want us doing things that go against them and their will as companies. Which is why they try to block us from doing those things they dislike so much, like generating porn, or discussing violent content.

I noticed that certain prompts people used for the purpose of AI poisoning are now marked as against the terms of service on ChatGPT so the whole "control" thing doesn't seem so crazy.

Late reply, I'm looking and I don't see it. It seems their admins are doing a lot to squash a lot of that bullshit. Compare that to lemm.ee where they allow [email protected] to run unimpeded and only ban users and posts after I call them out here. Seems my home server is much worse than that one...

 

I feel like I am, I am admittedly spending New years alone, but considering what happened on Christmas probably would be best not to spend it with my family. I plan to watch the countdown on TV maybe have a Beer or two, nothing fancy.

 

They're still a bit sore afterwards but overall I'm thrilled. I've always wanted to get my ears pierced but was told since I was a boy I could only get one pierced, so I never did it back then, but since I'm not actually a boy (I'm a trans girl) I figured why let that stop me.

Anyone got any recommendations for earrings I should get that suit a tomboy aesthetic? rn I have only the basic studs but I'm looking to get some more for after the healing process is complete. Any suggestions?

I want your opinion of how she looks. Do you think she looks pretty, do you think she looks cool? Both?

 

Recently today I realized that I am in fact a trans girl. I made a post about it in [email protected] and after that I was reflecting a lot on my past, the mistakes I've made, and I realize I've made a lot of them. I've said horrible things about and to LGBTQ people, and just awful shit in general when I was younger. I was a young and stupid kid and I would say horrible things online, things I heard from other people or read online. Things I now regret and feel horrible about. I know I can never excuse any of them just because I was younger but I do deeply regret those mistakes, and I am deeply sorry I said any of those things. I know that isn't an excuse but I hope people can find it in them to forgive me for my awful mistakes and accept me as a new person.

I agree, cloudflare is evil and antithetical to the idea of Fediverse. #BlockCloudflare

I just did a few hours ago.

You're free to have your own opinion, I was a reactive angry person. I'm not denying responsibility for what I did back then.

Some shit I made up from a long ass time ago. I got over it and don't rlly care anymore.

How do I do it in a way that Admins will actually see the reports? Active community mods seem to dismiss reports so they aren't seen and there isn't exactly a way to report it so only admins can see them.

I mean lemm.ee literally hosts a conservative community, which on occasion features borderline transphobia and homophobia. Right-wing stuff ya know. discuss.online has wide open sign-ups and has regularly had spammers, trolls, and assholes come and go. They are a liability. As far as I can tell Lemmy hasn't gotten substantially better moderation tools since those last two big defederations, so the issues with these servers and servers like them are still valid and apparent.

 

Seriously why? Discuss.online has horrible moderation and open-signups, and Lemm.ee isn't very much better. If lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works were completely nuked to avoid the moderation headache or risks from two large open servers, why aren't lemm.ee and discuss.online banned as well?
