Tbh, Lemmy leaning strongly to the left is a big plus for me. I mean, it’s easy to find right leaning or centrist communities everywhere. A clearly left leaning space is a gem I’m happy to help preserve and nurture. I’m saying that without offense in mind. But I feel the majority of social networks / boards / microblogging sites lean farther to the right than Lemmy.

And both of them indeed!

I just love it here. But I also know that while most communities are really nice, we rely a lot on two (2) individuals who provide a sizeable part of Lemmy’s content (Picard and PugJesus). We should all try to do our part!

I’m not certain, given your use case. As someone with a deep passion for martial arts (judo > Jiu Jitsu > Aikido > Tai Chi), I would say while they can be useful in certain situations (even tai chi chuan, which is certainly the most inner one). Self defense classes with actual teaching about fighting a guy with a knife/gun would be more suited, maybe.

Indeed, that makes sense

Ah, yes, that’s also true. Thanks!

Yeah but… isn’t it weird that they share their tools then?

I’m not into conspiracy stuff. It’s just that when I downloaded Ghidra for the first time, when I saw it was being published by the NSA, I had a “wow, didn’t expect that” reaction and it somehow became a shower thought.

It may be important to say that I’m not from the US. Where I live, I’m not sure things like that would happen or have happened. Well, or it did and I didn’t really pay attention.

I know it exists, but I’m so happy to buy a game I’ve played and finish. Pyre, Transistor, A story beside and so many others. Just as a “Thank you”.

P. S. : of you people didn’t know about it, check A Story Beside. One of the games I’ll never forget.

It’s indeed the name of a band

It's been a long time since I've read such a sensible comment from this situation.

To OP, I don't know how to put it, but I feel there's no real side to pick, expect for zealots and fanatics. A colonizing oppressive state is 150% wrong. Execution of civilians and exploiting your people misery to lead them to a theocratic disaster is 150% wrong.

I'm from a both jew and muslim family and… I'm glad they feel the same way.

Well, I have know and you're right indeed.

Err, are you sure about your words op? I just looked at their sidebar and it looks pretty clear about that, no?

Quoting :

"Nothing illegal under US (specifically Nevada) or local law. You know what that includes. (In case you don’t know what that includes, I mean child pornography [anything that fails the Dost Test], sexually interacting with minors, etc.) We have a zero tolerance policy for anything that fails the Dost test. Anything violating it will result in an immediate ban and removal of images. No admitting to anything that could cause the server to go under investigation, such as looking at child porn."

Edit : Well, looks like they don't enforce this rule indeed.

Edited

Hey! It’s actually quite funny because I’m writing a short story,about Spinozism titled “The Rosace”. It will take me ages and I don’t think I’ll ever finish it, but I couldn’t help but mention the resembling names :)

Oooh, nevermind then!

As far as I understand, they didn’t enable federation yet and I’m not sure preemptive defederation is a thing. Additionaly, IIRC, you cant defederate with anything as a user (although you can block), your instance can.

I might be wrong, though

Thanks for this ! I learned quite a few things, even on stuff I thought I had already understood !
