Maybe the problem is that your definition of fascism is "anyone who disagrees with me"?

Lemmy is turning into a left-wing echo chamber. The mods have declared that right-leaning opinions are not welcome and are defederating from any right-leaning instances. If you declare that half the population is not welcome, you're really limiting your reach. It's also going to be a pain to have two logins, one for lemmy.world and one for the free speech instances.

Yeah, it's nice. I've had it 2 years now. It's sturdy, hasn't broken yet. I'm not feeling the need to upgrade yet. If I was buying new, I'd get something newer. I was considering a GPD Win Mini, but $1000 is a lot and GPD has so many QA issues,

I have an RG351MP.

You create your own community. If the mods are jerks, you can convince people to switch.

Someone would just start their own lemmy instance if the mods are unreasonable.

Every handheld made in the past few years plays GB/GBC/GBA at 100%.

No. It just leads to people gaming the system. I also think that counting upvotes but not downvotes is also a good idea, when ranking which posts show first. Too many people use downvote for "I disagree", which means a true idea with less than 50% popularity gets buried.

Actually, the government did just call up Twitter and tell them to censor things. That's the whole point of the Matt Taibbi Twitter Files stories. But you also have other non-government groups policing the Internet, calling up Twitter/Facebook/Google/etc and demanding censorship.

How do you know that there's only one person working the account? When you're a reddit moderator, it's anonymous (same on Wikipedia). For all we know, all the power mods are working at a PR firm somewhere. Spreading misinformation could be their full-time job. Controlling the flow of information on Reddit and Wikipedia could be worth more than Reddit's actual profit.

With lemmy, if someone is squatting a bunch of forums and moderating them, you can always start your own lemmy instance and start your own forum with the same title.
