To do that, would it be enough if instances can’t block each other, or if users could unblock the foreign instances blocked by their original instance ?

You’d also want some .onion instances, and that they could communicate with those using the DNS.

Absolutely. That all sounds perfect to me. I actually don’t think you’re missing anything

then it’s misleading to use the word censorship i think, it’s more a mix of a lack of visibility and echo chambers

But the authorities cause it willingly, so it’s censorship, imo. Maybe debatable

If i understood you correctly, could you expand on your solution ?

Another way of looking at the problem is, without Tor federation, all the federated instances will be 100% one group of people, and each Tor instance will be 100% another group

That’s not healthy, there needs to be a balance where each place has some of each group. I don’t want a place full of nothing but pedophiles, but I also don’t want a place full of nothing but people who send pedophiles to their own place. I want a place full of nothing but people who agree everyone should be allowed to talk

Got it, will do 🙏

I hope in the near future you’ll find more of a paying audience than YouTube or Spotify have ever offered you

I’m saying Lemmy’s censorship is the same as reddit’s because we still have roughly the same groups as on reddit.

I still post to about the same audience or smaller, not bigger than peak reddit.

The people saying “ambulance rides shouldn’t cost money” are still drowned out by the people saying “poor people should die because I’m rich enough to be the one people listen to” so I don’t think we should choose who to listen to based on money.

If reddit worked as a system the authorities could use to control discussion, what we have now with reddit and Lemmy definitely isn’t any less useful for the authorities that way, because I seem to be making slower progress towards making ambulance rides free, instead of faster progress.

I didn’t ask.

Didn’t ask, don’t care.

This started with me blocking lemmy.world because I heard they defederate “tankie” instances

Not a Nazi, not from 4chan.

Weak gaslighting attempt, glowie.

Scroll up and please stop wasting my time.

Please stop wasting my time with replies unless you can explain the intentions/motives behind your words

It sounds like you haven’t even read my post. My whole point (as I’ve repeated many times throughout this thread to others acting like you) is that I cannot solve anything about Lemmy by running my own instance because federation is broken.

I explained my situation. I want to shift towards a cluster of zero-censorship instances, but I found out they apparently can’t exist because Lemmy blocks Tor (?), so I’m better off just spending less time on Lemmy.

I don’t care that much if devs fix it, I’m just explaining the problem. If it gets fixed, good; if not, the devs who would fix it will do some other good thing; if that’s not enough for the planet to survive, it’s that there aren’t enough good devs, not that they aren’t focused enough on Lemmy. I hope there are enough good devs for the planet to survive, and also for Lemmy to get fixed, though.

I asked if you actually thought I might be subservient to you, or you were willingly making a pointless suggestion to be annoying.

Are you afk, or is that question too hard-hitting and uncomfortable for you to answer?

Strange how there are people calling for me to be banned, but not you, while you’re trolling to waste my time, while I’m trying to organize resistance.

1. What do you mean?

2. I asked why you brought up whether I’d try to convince people to join a hellhole

3. I asked why you added “that’s not what lemmy is about” to your own topic

Weak gaslighting attempt, glowie. I just smoke weed. Stop being fucking dishonest

Free speech is nice in theory, but for true anarchist style freedom of speech to exist we would have to tolerate the intolerable.

No, you would have to stop.

If you think raping and bombing people is tolerable, but showing you pictures of it isn’t, you are intolerable to me - and I am absolutely the one who’s right, in that conflict.

If you think raping and bombing people is worse than showing you pictures of it, stop fucking around with bullshit and try tolerating the tolerable while not tolerating the intolerable.

If most of the human population is into rape and bombing, wipe out most of the human population until the front page is full of better posts, don’t just shield yourself from posts and call it “not tolerating the intolerable”

If it’s only a minority of the human population, outvote them to fill the front page with better posts

Use science and modern technology to make the world a better place instead of trying to deny the science, ruin the technology, and end the world

Fundamentally, just stop being fucking dishonest

I have no idea what that is and it sounds like you just pulled it out of your ass, but good job.

I’d thank you if you actually understood what you’re saying, at all. But there’s not one iota of sincerity or comprehension in those words.

You’re not going to convince anybody here to join your hellhole though.

That depends whether I have a hellhole, but I probably won’t have one, indeed. Kinda random though - why’d you bring it up?

That’s not what lemmy is about.

So again, why bring it up, but also why add this part?
