Only fascists talk like that at their conferences. And then it doesn't sound much better in other languages.
There are a hell of a lot of good examples of how terrible our language is, but that's nonsense.
We don’t need no “moderation”, we don’t need no thought control.
If you don't want it, that's absolutely fine - you just have to respect that others don't share that opinion and cut the line since it's hard to find a shared Fediverse of opposite ideas. Unmoderated instances have always been seperated in Fediverse-microblogging and I really don't see why history shouldn't repeat in this case.
Fatshaming is embarrassing.
I'm not on beehaw, I've never been - and I'm almost fine, where I am 😉 🍁
is that really a horrible idea as you say
This is not a question of fact, but of opinion. And yes: I've never been significantly active on Reddit, all the notifications I get there are spam porn accounts that follow me in.
To me, open signups seem wrong for a volunteer moderated service.
What they want is moderation. Unlike microblogging where you post to your followers, I think that running a public debate platform like Lemmy without controlling who enters is a horrible idea. That's why they posted a statement with the clarification that this defederation need not be permanent.
Couple of months ago, dansup posted a poll which platform to be next to get a migration-tool. Nothing but Instagram yet.
