I've just seen Black Mirror S06E01 yesterday night and it did hit deep
Fediverse is well differentiated into many sites offering similar capabilities to their more well established commercial and proprietary counterpart, and as the time passes these federated alternatives quality is nearing practically the production level, apart from Mastodon and Lemmy which are the most known by now it is worth mentioning also PeerTube (Youtube), PixelFed (instagram), Misskey, Calckey and Pleroma (a mix between twitter and tumblr), HubZilla (facebook), FunkWhale(Bandcamp) and OwnCast (twitch).
Here some handy links:
Hope it'll turn to be right decision.
As many pointed out already feeling severed away from part of the network because of an arbitrary decision of someone else surely is going to impact on the sense of agency of that the end users here might be looking for, especially considering that many are refugees from a network where indeed someone just have took a decision for all of them which they didn't like.
So in this sense I hope the admin are taking this hard decision having well pondered the outcome. Sure it will shield from some users of some other instance, but that is also going to segregate us. And more important where will it stop? What if tomorrow there is another big instance with open registration policy where some users post something toxic here on beehaw, will that whole instance be severed too from us because of few bad apples? And where does it stops?
With this I want to say that I hope that this is a temporary decision, I hope that in the short future there will be a more granular way to ban toxic users, or ban all the users from a specific toxic community for instance, but which is not just banning the entire instance where the account of a bad apple is stored.
I know banning on a per-person basis is probably unmanageable with the current mod force, but I hope that the increasing usage of Lemmy will add features to it and also will make naturally sprout all those user made 3rd party tools which made reddit what is... was until few days ago.
Good luck and good work everyone
