…if that’s too heady do note that if you have a heap of four marshmallows and a heap of five marshmallows then that’s the same as having a heap of five marshmallows and a heap of four marshmallows. To have a heap of nine marshmallows, you first have to turn them into a single heap. That’s reducing the number of heaps from two to one and that’s a hand-wavy way to justify the term.
anyone can host an email service
Eh, no. You could in the 2000s, nowadays spam protection is so tight, and necessarily that tight, that you need at least a full-time position actively managing the server or you’re getting blacklisted for some reason or the other. Other servers will simply not accept emails sent by you if you don’t look legit and professional.
Definitely possible for a company with IT department, as a small company you want to outsource it (emails being on your domain doesn’t mean you’re managing the server), as a hobbyist, well you might be really into it but generally also no. Send protonmail or posteo or whoever a buck or something a month.
It’s more than anime, it’s where Miyazaki got his feet wet, before founding Ghibli. Same studio that co-produced Viky the Viking with German television. The whole thing is closely connected to Japanese romantisation of Europe as a place of nature and fairytales, very much pushed by Ghibli. In case you ever wondered why Frieren is full of German names and there’s christianish-looking priests and talk of heaven and tons and tons and tons of nature: It’s just continuing a tradition. And have a video about nature in anime in general and Ghibli in particular. While we’re at it have a long (and German) wikipedia article on Heidi in Japan
I’m not exactly sure but often the whole comment history is nuked so there’s really nothing left to migrate.
They can’t ban you from the whole platform it just so happens if some admin wants you gone chances are your home instance admin wants you gone, too.
That level you describe also exists – instances are self-policing their users, though it’s an admin thing, not a mod one (mods are for communities).
lemm.ee just posted some numbers for the year and after kbin.social, which seems to get many spam accounts, they’re mostly banning lemm.ee users for misbehaving. No great need to ban .world users because .world admins are keeping their own ship clean, “are your users a bother to me” is a big factor in federation politics.
OTOH not giving communities the ability to police themselves would leads to problems because the only way to deal with anything would be to choose the nuclear option: You might get heated in a discussion about your favourite comic book character and lash out, calling people names, but otherwise be perfectly reasonable, the mods temp-banning you from their community is the right approach, there, not making you switch instances, or depriving others of the furry porn you post to the same instance as the comic community is on, or whatnot.

With that out of the way, most of your suggestions boil down to “use lemmy.world instead”.
It’s where big replacement communities happen to be, that’s all there is to it. Avoiding centralisation is a good thing in general but “tired of .ml mods? Here’s alternatives” isn’t the right time to go for it I think. Maybe the admins can come up with a scheme to round-robin disable community creation or something, to spread things out. Also, community migration is in the pipeline software-wise that would help a lot.
Done.
but we’d be much happier if we could migrate the existing community rather than start from scratch with a new one. Is there any way to do that yet?
Migrating content over should be doable by a sufficiently tech-savvy admin, subscribers, I don’t think so.
Sounds reasonable, edited a bit.
I don’t disagree with lemm.ee’s policy.
privacyguides does seem to have a decent number of active users, comicstrips seems to be more specialised than comics.
Lemm.ee will not defederate over tankie mods, there’s a specific policy. As to the change I want to see: Guess what I did just before I posted the list, go through all my subscription and clean it of lemmy.ml.
I very much doubt there’s going to be one a day, these kinds of things tend to ebb and flow. Also it would’ve been much faster to ignore this thread than to reply.
on the other hand I’m wondering about dessalines’ nationality
I’m guessing US, on account of the whole “America Bad” thing. Can also be seen with European tankies but they’re not nearly as much USSR stans and way more likely to identify as Trots. South American is another option but then I’d expect at least some of his output to be Spanish/Portuguese. It all does have that US exceptionalism turned around “The US is the source of all evil, ever” kind of vibe you generally only see from Americans as the rest of the world plain and simply isn’t seeped in US jingoism and self-importance.
…also I didn’t really invest much time in this at all, if someone else did, please enlighten us.
Who. It’s who. Nominative, not objective. Compare and contrast:
See? Easy: Only ever use “whom” when speaking like Yoda.
Anarchy and order are very much not opposites (There’s an O in the logo!), you might be thinking of anomie which means the absence of (legal, social) norms.
From the random yanks I see on the net the dividing line between ancap and libertarian is how open and/or conscious they are about their radicalism, though even ancaps of course fall short of admitting that they’re neo-feudalists. Basic differentiating factor from ordinary monarchists is that they want their King (not too uncommonly, it could also be a Queen) to rule by grace of capital instead of god. Which, if you ask Stirner, isn’t really much of a distinction both are spooks.
Atlas Shrugged will be the Malleus Maleficarum of the 2100s onward.
…if you want to be an Egoist fine no problem read Stirner and exorcise some spooks.
We get it you’re vegan.
Also most people are actually lactose-intolerant, the capability to retain production of lactase into adulthood is a mutation won through a lot of hardship and diarrhoea.
Side note Italy being blue explains why they have strange rules such as “no cappuccino after noon”, it’s not that it’s bad or anything it’s that many Italians can only stomach one, maybe two a day.
Also it’s not like “getting food is easier” is the only hypothesis out there as to why we settled down. Another one, IMO much more in line with human nature, is that we figured out how to ferment beer and for that reason planted buttloads of grain.
