Good thing they have a kid at the front. That way you are relatively protected from accidental crashes.

Now this is an interesting one. Plus with all the lithium in your system trickling in you’ll be sane the entire time!

This makes sense. I didn’t think of it that deep to realize that.

I got banned. But between Lemmy and mastodon I haven’t gone back there.

Great minds think alike.

Five.

The smiling ones don’t get it yet… Trump will get Scott free but not them. They are the "escape goats"🐐🐐🐐. They’ll stop smiling when they get it.

Lol, the X site is still tweeter.com

Like how Costco’s website is still Costcotest1.com…oh actually nevermind.

Ah. Yes that guy. The show was fun. Fun times 😄. It’s all old news now.

I even went to a Digg gathering once. I got a poster of the dig guys. I forgot their names now. Dirty blonde chubby guy and black hair guy with faint mustache, last name Roses or Rosales?

Maybe they delete our comments only to us but everyone still sees them? But yeah, if you re-did your comment like 10 times and another commentor redid theirs 5 times, how would they know what is the correct set? I can only think that maybe they go with the comments that survived the longest time. Or the first comment?

Oh that’s great 👍. What a great idea 💡. Everyone should be doing that!

Affordable is basically a nonstarter for me.

Actually, I think I like the old YouTube where people didn’t really make money from the videos posted. That way there’s more people posting and it doesn’t become a sickening view of the same asshole pouring vinegar into soda or whatever that’s all about. Makes me wanna puke 🤮🤢🤮.

I don’t know. I was getting a ton of messages saying that I violated the terms of what ever. Like it was just raining those kind of messages. Then the next day when I woke up I was going to check out my daily news and I got presented with a message saying I was banned. Not very well explained what the heck I did. But ever since, I’ve been opening my horizons. I mean this place is pretty good. I haven’t deployed my own server, but I figure I can actually do that.

Seems to be standard functionality according to this:

https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-delete-a-post-on-mastodon/#:~:text=There are actually two delete,make changes and repost it.

According to the same article it can fail if the server is malfunctioning. But I would assume only rogue servers would do this intentionally…like suddenly kick all users or a particular user out and lock them out of their delete option.

I propose that a new subreddit be created where you post something like “please ban me” and then people who visit will go and report you for sexual abusive and hate speech so you can get your account locked and banned site wide. Maybe there’s already a thing like that?

I got banned site wide so I can’t delete my subreddits or anything I posted. That should be illegal.

I hope people know that us all having instances would always be better than anything centralized elsewhere. 1) I can delete all my posts if I want. 2) anyone can make a better app to talk to it. 3) we got so many different ways of sharing our free speech here, it’s not even funny. 4) you can backup your stuff. I’m not, but you can do that if you serve your own server. 5) you can establish your own rules or land on someone else’s server that you trust.

At this point you gotta be a lower form of life to conclude that going centralized is good for anyone.

I created r/keitruck and r/Seattlegay using two separate accounts obviously. Somewhere during the pandemic, I started getting a ton of unreachable content warnings. Like I couldn’t tell where they were coming from or from who. So I couldn’t actually delete any comment that might have offended someone. I would see one or two per hour. One day it was one every few minutes. When I woke up the next day, all of my accounts were permanently banned. I couldn’t even create a new account. They banned by actual hardware address or something.
