  • Are we suggesting defederating everyone on lemmy.ml? Or just certain users that break feddit.uk’s rules? Sorry I am not up to speed on how to defederate. I would say defederate single users (if you can) who break the rules but also track how many you need to defederate per instance to decide if it’s just not worthwhile and instead defederate the whole instance. For example if you end up defederating 10 users a month then… meh… that’s not so bad. But if you need to do 10 a day then fuck that. You decide what the appropriate numbers are, mine are hypothetical.

    If they’re not breaking our rules then forget about them. It’s a losing battle to change their minds so just workaround them.

    Having said that, I do also think we should stop calling them tankies as a pergorative. If we are complaining that they don’t have basic respect for their users then we should probably set an example and not stoop to name calling.

    Feel free to call me a cunt 😜.









  • Holidays and travel in general is increasingly more and more expensive. I have a lot of sympathy for people with children who might be limited to school holidays when the prices are that much higher.

    I’ve found North Africa really interesting or the Middle East (but I totally appreciate the reluctance with going there right now). It might cost you overall the same as a short haul trip to Europe for a holiday but with the added benefit that it’s somewhere newer and more exciting than Europe can offer.

    There’s a whole world out there to explore and it’s a shame that expense is the major limiting factor in doing that (time and distance largely being conquered).

    Failing this, take a trip up to God’s Own Country ™️, Yorkshire.
