    My bet is on Covid brainfog. Someone on this level of intelligence wouldn’t have created something amazing like Reddit.

        Wanting to cash in is logical & understandable. Being a complete idiot, getting caught lying and being contradictory in his statements is a sign of a problem. (also what he is doing & has done is lowering the value of his IPO so…)

    It’s always important to take a step back and consider that the mega-rich exist in a totally separate reality than the rest of us do. They were raised in a way that they were never forced out of infancy into adulthood like the rest of us were. I hope that eventually we realize that it’s not responsible to allow major institutions to be under the control of adults whose worldview has never progressed since the time they were toddlers.

      Hey, sorry y’all had to defederate from our server.

      I guess I thought I understood what that meant, but I somehow didn’t quite grasp that we can both still subscribe to third party communities like here at [email protected], and continue to interact indirectly through those channels. So the whole defederation thing matters even less than I thought it did.

      Sorry to be off topic but some people at lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works might benefit from seeing this explained.

          Ok I see. And the reason for that is because beehaw has defederated my server, but my server has not defederated beehaw, correct?

          Kinda confusing, I guess I thought of federation as a bilateral agreement for some reason, but actually each instance unilaterally decides who to federate with, and its not always reciprocal.

            Yes. Think of it like blocking someone. beehaw defederated from sh.itjust.works so they can’t see anything from sh.itjust.works. not comments, not threads, not communities. 100% blocked. whereas the reverse isn’t true. you’re not able to get communities or content from beehaw (because they blocked and aren’t sending it to you), but their comments and threads elsewhere in the fediverse are still shared with you. This thread is hosted on lemmy.ml, so everyone federated with lemmy.ml can see it and interact with it; this is why you can see the beehaw user’s comment.

            However, since beehaw defederated with sh.itjust.works, your reply remains unseen by them. sh.itjust.works could mutually defederate/block beehaw and you wouldn’t see the comment. but that’s up to your instance whether you wanna do that or not.

              I love you for explaining this so clearly, I was actually so confused about this I may or may not have misinformed someone else, oops.

      These people who are mad, they’re mad because they used to get something for free, and now it’s going to be not free.

      I just can’t believe that a CEO of a company who doesn’t pay their moderators would actually say something so tone deaf.
