This, this also plays into the age-old debates about intolerance of intolerance and “free” speech. “Free” speech means that you are free to say whatever you would like, as long as you are willing to accept the natural consequences, and tolerance is one of many other social contracts we have in place.

You are welcome to lie to someone, to call them names, to tell them awful things or to just spout bullshit all day. But the flip side of that is that people are also free to say what they will, and engage with who they want, and if you are a real asshole who finds issue with everyone very few people will willingly do so with you. In other words: don’t poke the bear, and you won’t get eaten.

I heard Lemmy broke something with the latest update. My understanding is that there was a larger update which temporarily removed captcha, and Lemmy opted to just deal for a few days rather than go through the inevitable wave of spambots.

I like this idea, we should as an instance write down core values, maybe about half a dozen, that we would like to abide by.

Unfortunately they don’t appreciate the masculine form like I do

Oh, nice. I might actually have a reason to start hoarding caches again...

I agree, the banner should definitely be some sort of colonnade lol. Maybe some sort of thought bubble or group of people/talking head(s) for the icon? (I’m about to turn in for the evening so if this garners any interest, I can do a quick mock-up tomorrow (not that I have the skills to make a finished product lol))
