The purpose of federation is to build a network that no one entity can control. An evil CEO can enshittify their own server, but the damage they would deal is limited to their server. The rest of the network would still exist outside of their control, and users can easily leave their server to go elsewhere.
You said you had this conversation about Elon years ago, but obviously a lot has changed since then.
Try asking some deeper questions about why he still supports Musk now. Is he just trying to plug his head in the sand because he just likes Tesla/has a financial stake, or does he genuinely align with Musk’s fascist leanings? Did he vote for Trump?
Do you think disliking nazis was something we were supposed to stop doing at some point?
Why should I care?
We could lose 99.9% of digital records and what’s left would still be far more than the amount of surviving records from any other point in history.
Anarchy means “without hierarchy”. Classes are a hierarchy, so by definition it wouldn’t be anarchy if you don’t dissolve class.
No one CEO can ruin it.
Right now we’re seeing a cycle of people jumping ship from one corporate-owned platform to another, until that new platform inevitably turns to shit. But as long as people keep doing that, corporate-owned platforms will inevitably turn to shit. The only true solution is to cut corporations out of the picture with platforms that are designed to be unruinable.
As others have mentioned, mbin doesn’t auto-upvote. I didn’t even know that Lemmy does apparently. Seems like something that really ought to be standardized across platforms, because now it feels like mbin is at a ‘disadvantage’.
IMO, ideally you just shouldn’t be able to vote on your own posts/comments at all.
I think that’s just BitTorrent.

All of this just sounds worse and worse. NFTs, seriously?
From what I’ve gathered, this appears to be an unusably slow 4chan for crypto bros.
While I’d prefer to fully dismantle the whole capitalist system, I can accept UBI as the most realistic compromise we’re likely to get in our lifetimes.
Fighting games: I’m a solid upper-intermediate player in most of the games I play. I’ve got a few tournament wins under my belt for smaller local brackets. At majors, I usually go 2-2 or 3-2, consistently finishing in the top half. Best I’ve ever done in a large bracket was 9th in Them’s Fightin’ Herds at Combo Breaker 2022.
Riichi Mahjong: Master 1 on MajSoul, 7th Dan on Riichi City. Our local club runs a seasonal league where I took 2nd last season and am currently ranked 4th this season, though with IRL games the sample size is a bit small. I know I have a lot to improve on still, my deal-in rate is akin to repeatedly putting my hand on a hot stove.
Versus puzzle games: Retired out of spite for the sad state of the competitive scene today, but I used to be the top Puyo Puyo player in my state, peaked at a 2700 rating back then. That is a big fish in a small pond though, top Japanese players are so far ahead of us because barely anyone in the west ever took this game seriously. Which leads into the long rant about why I called it quits… I’ve dabbled in a lot of other games as well, but when it comes to competitive scenes everything else is even more nonexistent than Puyo. There are a lot of games I can call myself good at just by default.
