This post itself is mildly infuriating as I can’t tell what’s wrong in the picture!

Ah right yeah that makes sense
Yeah, they’ve shot down some cruise missiles recently
Why does someone need to be home for that? Can’t they leave it outside or around the back somewhere?
It’s no different than an ariel drone, except it’s on wheels and has a gun rather than bombs.
The real concern would be if it were autonomous.
♥️ glad to be part of our community!
Our instance is federated with hexbear, lemmygrad etc. I want to be resonsible for what I see and block, I’m really not a fan of defederation unless it’s a last resort (i.e. CSAM or other illegal content).
I did end up blocking the lemmy.ml instance though, fuck that place. I haven’t even blocked hexbear or lemmygrad.
The problem is most likely people that are new to the fediverse/lemmy just not understanding it and choosing a “default”, popular instance. I was going to pick it as a safe option when I first came here but it was under load and wasn’t accepting new users, where I then had to find another instance and settled on feddit.uk.
It would be good if lemmy instances could have the option of “load balancing” new users, so if the current instance has way more active users than it’s federated wtih then it disables registration but recommends other, smaller instances to the user.
Don’t forget “it’s too complicated”
Not to mention things must be pretty tense around the house. Once a month seems very regular to me to have such arguments.
I don’t think you can correlate the number of readers to the number of book instances or whatever they’re called. Most people (myself included) probably just use Goodreads, and BookWyrm is probably a good enough alternative that there’s no need to spin up another.
Edit: according to this there’s a lot of instances: https://joinbookwyrm.com/instances/
There’s been civil wars in nations all over the world. I think they’re poking fun at which is the civil war? I’m guessing it’s the Spanish one.
I’ve added it to my blocked instances and I’d recommend others who have an issue with the way the communities on that instance are moderated and the way it’s managed to do the same.
Fortunately there are alternative instances and communities that are less authoritarian with their moderation.
Maybe politics was the wrong word, what I mean is drama.
The way comments and users are purged from ml would make Stalin proud!
But they may not know the history of it or why it was made before joining. I certainly didn’t, it was more about a decentralised alternative to Reddit, I just joined and explored.
I don’t know why the lemmy.ml admins don’t just defederate from everyone but lemmygrad and hexbear. It’s clear that only their extreme views are allowed and they must spend a lot of time banning “libs”.
It would do everyone a favour really. We’d have less instance politics and hopefully more content, and make it the fediverse more attractive to the average person.
If you’re new to Lemmy then it won’t be common knowledge at all.
There’s a lot of [Citation needed] tags on a lot of those claims. I’m not denying they exist but it’s also a bit of a flimsy source.
Why wouldn’t they?
