For stats and links: https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=privacy&order=active

I'm personally in favor of [email protected]

  • fits the theme of the instance
  • is not on .ml
  • is not on .world
  • 3 different active mods
  • no power tripping noted so far
  • 2nd most active community after [email protected]

[email protected] admin has been quiet for a while, the instance seems to be running on auto-pilot, https://lemmy.one/c/meta has no communication from the admins since a long time

Programming.dev is still running Lemmy 0.19.5, and they had a quite severe issue of database corruption for 3 months. Thankfully, it's solved since (https://programming.dev/post/20515601)

...and then there's Vaporeon.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

I was missing one, was sad about it too.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

No, Vaporeon being the odd one out is accurate.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Hey guys, did you know...

[–] [email protected] 15 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

…that in terms of human companionship, Flareon is objectively the most huggable Pokemon? While their maximum temperature is likely too much for most, they are capable of controlling it, so they can set themselves to the perfect temperature for you. Along with that, they have a lot of fluff, making them undeniably incredibly soft to touch. But that's not all, they have a very respectable special defense stat of 110, which means that they are likely very calm and resistant to emotional damage. Because of this, if you have a bad day, you can vent to it while hugging it, and it won't mind. It can make itself even more endearing with moves like Charm and Baby Doll Eyes, ensuring that you never have a prolonged bout of depression ever again.

In Japanese, Flareon is known as Booster. Let it be your emotional booster.

lemmynsfw was right there

  • is not on .ml
  • is not on .world

Not on the .ml Tankie instance and not on the giant centralized hub of .world, The only 2 reasons needed LMAO

[–] [email protected] 18 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

I think I'll never get why you are still using an account on .world, while you are always quite critical towards the LW centralization 😄

[–] [email protected] 9 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I've got plans to move, just waiting till I launch my own instance...when I get to it on my long to-do project list lmao

[–] [email protected] 6 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

You should maybe consider switching to another instance "in the meantime"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

Or piefed! ;)

Theres a lot of good servers both on lemmy and piefed, but the mod tools are really good on piefed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Switching is a pain tbh

[–] [email protected] 3 points 18 hours ago

Usually takes me a few minutes to export/import the settings to a new alt, not sure how it is on Mbin

[–] [email protected] 1 points 13 hours ago

Before seeing the arguments I saw the ml community and thought "privacy advocates that also are pro state sponsored backdoors?"

Glad I'm not the only one

[–] [email protected] 5 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Honestly the duplication and splintering of communities across instances will be a big problem if Lemmy ever gets more mainstream.

So probably not, but still.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's already an issue now.

I hope this meme will help at least limit it down to 2 or 3 communities. Having 7 for the same topic is too much. People want to post and comment in a place active enough, not crossposting everything to 7 communities.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I've been thinking that there should be a better shorthand for linking to a community on a specific instances. Something along the lines of giving each instance a shorthand up to 4 characters or something, and then do community links in the format //. So give sh.itjust.works sjw as a shorthand, and /sjw/privacy becomes the community name. I think that would make it easier to remember the one you mean.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The auto completion works quite well

[email protected] took me six characters to link it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Don't think you're going to see that in every mobile client...Sync doesn't have it for example. I think the benefit is more in remembering than typing, too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago

Clients should definitely implement this.

Remembering comes with context. Most of the people already know about hexbear by now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

Can’t live with em, can’t live without them.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

There are dozens of us Lemmy.one users! Dozens!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 18 hours ago

I used to be a lemmy.one user like you. Then I took an inactive admin to the knee

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

It's kinda exclusive now that registrations are closed

[–] [email protected] 6 points 18 hours ago

good progress on decentralization!

world news is still dominated by lemmy world

much work to do be done

[–] Sunshine 4 points 18 hours ago

I have switched the recommended privacy community recommendation from [email protected] to [email protected] on my communities due to your advocacy Blaze!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I fail to see the problem. For privacy sublemmies especially it feels nice to have a redundant way of getting told about important stuff like this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago

It would be more efficient to have 2-3 core communities rather than 7 like this.

People are not going to copy paste their relevant comments to the 7 crossposts of the same article.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

Gotta catch 'em all
