Very cool piece of software. Excited to get into it.

I have seen shorts type content on peertube. Check out this guy:

What happened to vlemmy?

If y’all haven’t already definitely post your communities in [email protected]

Post links and the discussion will come if the community has even just a few subscribers.

Post y’all. Everybody’s still sorting by new and new comments. Now’s the time to make it happen.

Women’s liberation is not some esoteric piece of history. It’s in living memory for a lot of people and was a household term for decades. For those unfamiliar, I think it’s worth asking why that may be.

I’ve been told that there is no way to incorporate that into the main feed, unfortunately. However, hashtags tend to be pretty messy so I totally get putting them in their own timelines.

I don’t know if I’d go so far as to recommend a VPN or Tor. Should be the same risk profile as torrenting except legal in all places. Also, this information may be out of date, but I believe it is considered poor etiquette to use the Tor network for bandwidth heavy stuff like this. I know they used to put out PSAs about torrenting on the network.

Also positive masculinity tends to still be rooted in fairly patriarchal ideas of what it means to be a man in ways that liberation from gender roles specifically is not.

Make it happen! Not a man but would love to see it out there

Just a fairly inactive community. Was hoping to breathe a little life into it with this post.

I can assure you that progress has not been stopped by the advent of intersectionality. See fourth wave feminism

Naw you nailed it. It’s a reference to Women’s Lib

It’s a reference to the women’s lib movement. It’s about liberation from patriarchy and traditional gender roles.

See here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women's_liberation_movement

Pretty sure this is just because the community here leans left and also the world is ending.

That said I would not be disappointed if more of the climate talk was focused on dedicated instances. See slrpnk.net

I think I’m going to have to disagree with you on that. New communities is fine but as someone who’s been active over there for a while it definitely seems that the issue is that it’s impossible for small communities to get any traction on the main page. I think the most important thing for long term growth is making sure that new users don’t come over here and find that all the communities they are interested in are dead.

Doesn’t Reddit totally weight by size of community tho? Not saying we should just ape the old site but I suspect it’s actually necessary for smaller communities to grow naturally.

That is exactly what I’m looking for!

This is more or less what my instance blahaj.zone does. blahaj.zone is calckey and lemmy.blahaj.zone is lemmy.

I think it’s best acknowledged that FunkWhale is much closer to a federated Soundcloud than a federated Spotify. Still a very cool project.

Can’t believe I haven’t seen this said here but check against other instances. Some instances have stuff in the trending tab set to manual approval. I’ve noticed this in particular with my trending tab posts section on tech.lgbt

This should be long fixed. I think people who have been taking about this recently are in instances that are having trouble helping up with traffic? Definitely not sure

In a similar vein, I’ve also seen Nextcloud used for this purpose.

Unironically, yes absolutely.

Nobody wants Meta’s manipulated content. Let’s not forget why we call them Meta.

They do but primarily through SSO services and platform partnerships. This is their bridge into monetizing the broader fediverse.

Training AI and selling information directly are very different in the eyes of the law.

What’s worse, they’ll do it if somebody from Threads interacts with YOU

Further context from the Threads privacy policy.

It states: "Information From Third Party Services and Users: We collect information about the Third Party Services and Third Party Users who interact with Threads. If you interact with Threads through a Third Party Service (such as by following Threads users, interacting with Threads content, or by allowing Threads users to follow you or interact with your content), we collect information about your third-party account and profile (such as your username, profile picture, IP address, and the name of the Third Party Service on which you are registered), your content (such as when you allow Threads users to follow, like, reshare, or have mentions in your posts), and your interactions (such as when you follow, like, reshare, or have mentions in Threads posts).

We use the information we collect for Threads for the purposes described in the Meta Privacy Policy, including to provide, personalize, and improve Threads and other Meta Products (including seamless personalization of your experience across Threads and Instagram), to provide measurement, analytics and other business services (including ads), to promote safety, integrity and security, to communicate with you, and to research and innovate for social good."

I absolutely do not think you can avoid the big social ad complex with a cryptic username.

Just because it’s public does not mean they have the rights to sell it. Some over on Mastodon seem to think they likely would lose if it ever went to court (definite illegal in the EU but Threads is delaying launch there) but until then they plan to monetize your interactions.

The issue is that they can legally monetize users that never signed up to Threads. That’s what makes this set of circumstances unique.

There’s absolutely no reason it has to or should.

This is so true and people seem to have a really hard time seeing this. The cultures on other social sites are far more manufactured than we’d like to believe. I think the human driven systems of Lemmy and Mastodon are brilliant but the true killer feature of the fediverse is going to be an open content recommendation algorithm. A collectively developed non-profit driven algorithm would undoubtedly be better at surfacing positive impact content than either system.

I understand the desire to automate this sort of thing and I can understand the utility at first but I think we should absolutely be afraid of that in long term use. Instead I think people should use the built in cross posting function to link conversations from different communities. I think this is a great way to build slow diffusion of communities into the fediverse.

See my post here for an example: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/217550

To be clear, neoliberalism differs from classical liberalism (the french revolution kind) in that it tries to fundamentally associate these values with a free market capitalist system.

You can’t both sides the existence of a community of people. Anything that doesn’t explicitly reference the long history of academic gender and queer theory is trying to do just that.

It’s interesting how the so called hyper progressive spaces are simply the LGBTQ communities. As usual this sounds like a clear elevation of antiqueer views and people over the lived experiences of a community that has an intrinsic right to exist.

Edit: A reminder to everyone reading this, claims of being neither left nor right are nearly always made by the right. Particularly when the left in this instance simply means people who are queer.
