oh no there aren't ads? but how will i get paid for my free fediverse instance? oh right I dont' care.
Meanwhile culpa, I missed the price.
50k is still too much. At that point you buy a vehicle that can do everything you need instead of something that is probably ok most of the year.
I think these people don't realize that $50,000 is a lot of money for most people. If you're spending $50,000 us on a vehicle, your transportation budget is spoken for. It needs to be something that can do everything you needed to do at all times for a long time.

I like the idea of a small electric pickup, but it needs to be cheap to make sense, and they don't mention the price. Given the long range, I have a feeling it's probably still in the "just buy an ICE truck" range.
First impression of kbin: "Ok, just follow the instruc-- wait, they're half missing."
The sky far from cities makes you understand why people saw mythical creatures in the sky. People who haven't ever left the city can't understand...
I don't really trust any of these people.
Look at the list of banned books over the past 50 years. You'll find something in common with them. Will the people who signed these laws still be ok with it when those books return to the library?
Everyone is pro censorship when it's things they don't like and anti-censorship when it's things they like. It's only principled people who believe in anti-censorship for things they actually don't like.

Well, I thought this guy was a piece of shit in the 2000s, I thought he was a piece of shit in the 2010s, I thought he was a piece of shit in 2020, but now that he's said something I agree with he's totally not a piece of shit now!
When people say getting onto mastodon is hard I assume they must mean setting up an instance because even if soapbox and rebased are easier to use, it's still just signing up for a website.
Good idea. I'm going to send Richard Nixon pictures to every woman on the fediverse and beyond!!! No woman on earth shall be free of my Dick pics!
Yeah, I know where you're coming from there. I'd like improved federation. I might look at kbin myself. Lemmy was tough to set up which is what put me on lotide.
That's true, since exploding-heads (while defederated from 99% of the lemmyverse) proves other people can host their own.
I think for now there's a "guilt by association" where since they're all like that everyone just assumes an instance running Lemmy is like that.

The nice thing about capitalism is that you get options. Digg became shitty so people moved to reddit. Reddit became shitty so people moved to other alternatives. Since people can privately own resources, we can even buy our own server hardware and start our own websites. Under central planning the fediverse could not exist.
I agree with you in this regard, but it goes beyond just software COC, and to the fact that most Lemmy instances are run as authoritarian hellscapes where thou shalt agree totally with the admins or thou shalt be exiled.
I was recently having a conversation on exploding-heads about this, because I dont want to be in a right wing echo chamber, but I also don't want to have to walk on eggshells in case my instance gets banned or defederate for the crime of having an opinion they don't like.
