They're necessary, but any power will always bring a chance that someone will abuse it. So I usually prefer moderators with a lighter touch, that talk to their users before taking more controversial actions.

I miss Tumblr. Yes, Tumblr still exists, but the Tumblr I miss does not. This stuff makes me wonder if we'll see an ActivityPub Tumblr-clone at some point, like Lemmy/Kbin to Reddit, Mastodon to Twitter and PeerTube to YouTube.

As a Dutch person, I freaking love this. And there's plenty of valid reasons for it too, it's not just them throwing us a bone.

Begun, the git clone wars have.

So, every year on my birthday, I could go here and pretend I'm still 20. Yay.

So basically: only do this if you enjoy sucking dick? Noted.

But it's a rock with purpose. You know where it's supposed to go. Its fate is now in your hands.

The second person here would be the user. Each user would have to write their own app. That sounds like a recipe for-... fun. Lots of fun.

Upvotes and downvotes, sure, but actual karma that's tracked per account, no. I don't think that's planned either, but I could be mistaken.

Ads can deliver viruses, many ads are animated or have sound, or both. If every ad were static and safe, I wouldn't mind so much... but alas, that's not a thing. So AdBlock it is!

And sometimes, justice requires breaking the law. Remember that the Holocaust was legal and Stonewall was not.

Sure, but some places do have more influence on the public discourse than others. Lemmy will remain relatively uninfluential until it becomes more user-friendly, and/or more well-known. So any left wing stuff here is going to have less of an effect than it did on Reddit or other such places, for now.
