I've seen that "problem" a lot, but they give away the source code for free as proper communists should do, and then it's out of their hands. Just don't go to lemmygrad.ml.

I agree with wander.
While it is good to have an account at a smaller community, it does make discoverability hard, especially for a beginner.
You could allso get another account with the bigger ones like mastodon.world or kbin.social, and you can still post here.
I posted this from kbin.social
hexbear joined limited federation, that's about 80% of that graph
Gdpr applies to servers within the EU, or for servers with EU clients. You can demand that they delete and stop transmitting data.
But you accept to transmit data all over the world, in the end that data could end up somewhere outside of the EU without any direct EU customers. Then all bounds are gone.
Mastodon's privacy issues are just the same as the rest of the fediverse/threadiverse.
With federation there is more openness, transparency and accountability. Take care of your privacy, use alts.
In the end the url structure is not important.
Just use search:
on kbin you would search on something like "[email protected]"
on lemmy you need to search prefixed with a !, "[email protected]"
lemmy uses /c/ kbin uses /m/
syncing to other lemmy's and kbins is not that big of a problem if you're popular, the first subscriber from an instance will be quick
you mod everything on the main instance.
I subscribed to the lemmy, it's here : https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
With how federation works only new posts from now on will be synchronised, not the history.
You do know that you can visit kbin from lemmy, and lemmy from kbin? You don't have to choose 1 of the 2.
I disagreed with some of those screenshots, and that's ok. But others where just plain hatespeech, that's where I draw the line.
Seems so,
There will never be a vote, it's just a smokescreen.
