China also appears to be improving on this in real time, though official policy still lags behind e.g. Cuba.
idk, I just know that the old instance already have problems with power users and reifying that will make the problem worse.
I think this was always an intended feature (I’ve certainly been hearing about it for years as something people want/devs want to add), in addition to a user tagging system (i.e. users adding tags to their own usernames (e.g. pronoun tags). the main difference, though, was that it was something the poster or mods/admins could add and not something for the userbase at large to vote on. I think making it a voting system allows abuse. like consider a large group of transphobes adding tags to posts in trans comms, for instance.
a trusted user system is it’s own can of worms.
no, we don’t have downvotes on hexbear and this is what they looked like when we did. it means bad post.

defederation is good for nazi and CSAM instances. no one should touch either with a 10ft pole. there’s absolutely no reason to give them a larger platform.
when the capitalists expropriate the profits over creative works: cool, good
when some random person downloads it: how dare you
oh no, billionaire profits. anyway,
the person you replied to was talking about the last 9 years
there’s no way to sell public infrastructure to the highest bidder that won’t result in a massive drop in quality of life. it’s got very little to do with your government and entirely to do with the introduction of bourgeois rule.
Ethnic cleansings in those territories are a fabricated casus beli for Russia ‘green man’.
there have been reports of Ukranian paramilitaries shelling the Donbas going back almost a decade. multiple peace treaties were signed over it, all aiming to stop the ethnic cleansing. each and every one of those treaties were violated. this is all extremely well-documented. can you even prove that a single of these reports is fabricated?
yes, and further that any exercise of constitutional authority is an official act.
in the prosecutable sense? no. the president is no longer bound by congressional authority.
courts won’t do shit about it, congress will have to (lmao)
