Yeah. There is a userscript called "Lemmy Universal Link Switcher" (link) that helps with that, but of course it's just an UI fix.

Thanks, that's interesting. Also that a python program is less resource intensive than rust lol.

But I've been wondering if communities should be bound to domains at all or maybe should be more free floating or P2P. Or if communities should be owned by admins at all, or could possibly be democratically controlled.

Harry should have cast the spell "Antifascio furiosa!"

Yeah some artist are horrible or broken or sick in the head and did horrible things.

But that's completely different to someone who gained a huge checkbook to sponsor lawsuits, lobbyists and social media campaigns to sponsor the socio-economic conditions to proliferate issues like that and agitate not just for violence but against fundamental values like equality, freedom, justice.

Rowlings is an enemy to all people who want to live in a peaceful and tolerant society. They might just be stupid or ignorant but their immense economic power makes them dangerous and they need to be put down - ideally with laws against hate speech or at the very least in polite society. It's not a tolerable "difference in personal opinion".

It's different when it's fascist talking points or lies advocating intolerance or hate speech. That's not an acceptable "personal opinion" in a tolerant society. Especially if it's an active and current threat to democracy and financed by vast profits.

I just read the first 4 novellas and I really like this adaption. The researchers are more like "millennial" stupid (or whatever I can't keep up with the gen tropes lol) but it fits well with the zany shows he watches. It represents a cyber dystopia quite well. Thanks for sharing or I wouldn't have found this gem!

Is it really even satire at this point? MAGA has released memes and AI videos like that.

The only thing funny about this is if newsom before being beheaded calls for national unity and working across the isle or something.

More like Israel. They'll just keep shooting.

Why would they ever stop stomping faces once you begun? It's so much fun!

His followers believe in inequality so they actually love when he does outrageous, stupid or illegal things.

Yeah the biggest communities seem to be movies and television, and my guess is that they'll be gobbled up by lemmy.world. But every community migration like currently looses subscriber members, and split communities mean a lack of interaction. Social network require a critical mass, and also benefit from centralization. While federation works great for users there isn't a real solution for communities yet. There is a lot of randomness involved, like who gets to be the first to make a community might be a bad mod in the long term. For example the reddit r/climate mod is a climate skeptic. Not sure if there is any better solution.

I'm just wondering how the best design for this problem would look like. Maybe the mod of a community could have some kind of key that he can transfer to another instance and automatically transfer all the user subscriptions and link the post history with them.
