Yeah fair enough. Key part was “arcs that go nowhere”. I got so incredibly tired of TV shows that think the way to do mystery is drawing out plot far too slowly, in hopes you’ll tune in next episode.
Then again, regarding new trek, I only watched season 1 of Discovery, and the first episode of Picard. I ain’t got no patience for this.
And most important (for me): self-contained episodes. No season long story arcs that go nowhere.

It’s problematic when people conflate their gut feelings for facts.

I understand activitypub better than creator of Lemmy
Well, that convinced me. Thanks for your insight on the matter, I now know how to value the rest of your comments.
And in one of those cases they are violating a very clear “this is not okay” signal, and in the other they are not.
What I think or what they “may” do is irrelevant regarding public data. What matters is sending a clear signal what you are and are not okay with.
Whether you actively participate in helping them get your data or not might not effectively matter in them acquiring it, but it may heavily impact the fine they get for it afterwards. You might be okay with them getting your data for free, but I’m not, sweet summer child.
They can still train ML models (create profit) from the data they get from you without consent.
I thought it was push after subscription.
Public is not the same as public domain.
I’m not a lawyer, but Federation would probably imply consent to sharing the data. Whereas defederation would strongly imply you’re not okay with sharing the data with that entity.
So… Instances like lemmy.world, that this is posted to?
yes, I’m federated with them as well, but shit like this is why I dislike them being so big. In the end all the smaller instances can either have strong morals and integrity, or have access to the largest amount of content in the fediverse, but not both.
Gotcha. That sucks.
So those calls are not for the benefit of US companies?
Eh. Gen-x here. I still have an hour long phonecall over signal with my best friend over signal two times a week or so.
In my teens I wasn’t too happy about making phonecalls either, but working on a helpdesk for a while sure cured that.
On the other hand, I live in a country with consumer protection, so robocalls are not a thing. And I’d strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger (and GDPR) those companies who attempt to poison and destroy my personal attention.
I wasn’t awake enough to appreciate the sarcasm in this comment when I initially read it. Nice one.
Lemmy allows it on a user level, since version 0.19
But since I see you’re on mbin, that don’t do you much good, I’m afraid.
I see.
As the other commenter also said: can’t you just block the LW instance on your account?
What’s the usecase for cloudflare filtering / blocking LW?
I’m aware that the latter is a huge risk in what is supposed to be a decentralised solution, but I’m not sure why you’d need to filter hundreds of communities for that (rather than defed 1 server).
Also, its not clear reddit is able to retain deleted posts. They have a vast live site to maintain - why would they ever have been focused on having an immutable back up of all deleted posts?
They do, though. Last year when there was a small exodus to Lemmy, lots of people deleted their history. Which reddit then recovered.
The truth is, marking a comment or post as deleted, literally only takes one bit to store. deleted=1 or 0. However, if you go back and overwrite all your comments (not with an identical message, because that is easy to detect) - that would take more effort to recover.
Yay, mob justice!
