I just migrated my comms to Reddthat and Piefed.zip (!NikkeNSFW@reddthat.com and !BigAnimeTiddies@piefed.zip).

From reading their rules, they don't prohibit NSFW content.

We should use the death of LemmyNSFW as reminder to spread communities across as many instances as possible so something like this won't happen again at the same scale.

Because right now, if Lemmy.World goes down, then we're absolutely fucked.

Edit: fixed typo.

I agree with you and I feel like an idiot for not having thought of that.

With that said, we've now officially moved to !NikkeNSFW@reddthat.com. And if you're into big anime tiddies, then !BigAnimeTiddies@piefed.zip is a thing as well. Thank you for your suggestion!

Guess we're on the same boat then. Let's hope they don't release a sexy and meta Nikke for the half anniversary lol.

If there's text in the body, I'll always read it.

Now a better question is if you asked us if we read the linked article before commenting lol.

I wish society judged people who don't tag AI art the same way we judge those who fail to tag NSFW or spoiler content.

Found you a better quality one.

The social media ban for younger kids in Australia is not a good thing. By requiring anyone who wants to access social platforms to provide government ID, you're effectively eliminating online anonymity.

Sure, the justification today might be to "protect the kids". But you're slowly building the infrastructure of a surveillance state. All it'll take is for an authoritarian party to win the next election and your privacy and freedom of expression is over.

The only way to protect children and protect our privacy is if the age verification software is publicly auditable and uses zero-knowledge proofs for age attestation. The website you're accessing must never see anything about you aside from "This user is 16+." And the age verification platform must never be able to keep a log of which websites you've accessed.

But that's just a compromise. If I had the option to choose, I'd rather there be absolutely no age verification, ever.

EDIT: Fixed grammar.

I'm going to visit the Cincinatti Zoo in 2016 and stop this one kid kid from falling into a gorilla enclosure.

Sadly, they only removed access to new API keys. Existing ones still work, for now.

Why this is "sad" is because Reddit has learned from the past. They won't immediately take drastic changes that will immediately piss off a big chunk of their users. Instead, they'll do it slowly so fewer people will feel the immediate impact. But eventually, this will affect everyone.

And why this sucks for us is because if there's no massive outrage like the one in 2023, there won't be a mass migration to the Fediverse.

I want this to be real.

As long as they don't F up the price of the Steam Machine, then this would be wonderful for both the gaming and Linux communities.

I'm jumping between Reddit and Lemmy. Some subreddits have all of their mods booted out (r/GoCommitDie and r/OpenAI are two I can think of). Some subreddits have decided to flag their subreddit as NSFW but are being threatened by Reddit to reverse that move, and many have returned to business as usual.

Let's face it. We've lost the API protest. All we can do now is make Lemmy popular and make it attractive to other users. Give people an incentive to actually join here. Our job here is not to make Lemmy a copy of Reddit. We need to make Lemmy different (in a good way!).

And here's an unpopular opinion: we need to make Lemmy easy to use and understand. If normies find Lemmy difficult to use or understand, then we're fucked.

My personal opinion is that normies might get confused by the fediverse and might be turned away by thinking they need to make an account on every single instance in order to participate in them. I am not proposing that we get rid of federation. What I am proposing is that we somehow make it clearer to everyone that all you really need is one account and you can get access to everywhere. I don't know how we can do this, but I'm sure there is someone who knows.
