no, catboys aren't a sin to in the bible and being strange isn't illegal. Be yourself

Are you trolling me right now

These are private instances run by private entities. There is no "lawful freedom of speech" because no governments are involved. Furthermore, lemmy is global, not just American.

I think you nailed it. These instances can be started by anyone, for any reason, ran any way you want. Just as it is nazi guys right to be nazis on their instance, it's everyone elses right to say no. That is not censorship, it's freedom of speech. The owners of other instances are enacting their freedom of speech by saying "no", and possibly even "fuck you". To cry and piss yourself when other people don't want to talk to you and say "wah wah you want a safe space" is pathetic. If you want a place where you can be as much as a douche you want, go start it! No one's stopping you!

Who says it can't be both

Not a government either, this is a website.

Are you implying that because the concept freedom of speech exists everyone is inherently required to follow it? What point are you trying to make??

It's a paradox. If people around you are whining, you are somehow banned from speaking up and saying "stop", as that is also whining. Truly, no one can crack this nut

That's fucking brilliant, I'm going to try to make one

This made me lol

A distributed architecture generally refers to a single application or service designed to be resilient to individual data center failures. For example, Reddit, a centralized application controlled by Reddit itself, operates data centers around the world to process user transactions. In the event of an outage in a specific location, such as California, Reddit would still be able to function because its infrastructure for handling user requests and serving data would automatically switch to other functioning data centers elsewhere, like Nevada, Arizona, or Washington. This is an example of a distributed architecture.

On the other hand, a decentralized federation does not consist of a single application. Instead, it involves a software platform like Lemmy, which is hosted on multiple individual hosts. When a user signs up with one host, they can interact with users from other hosts, but each host manages its own infrastructure. For instance, someone could host a Lemmy instance on an old laptop they found in their closet and name it ballsuckers.com, while another person could host a Lemmy instance in the cloud with a properly designed distributed architecture and name it bingbong.com. Each host is responsible for managing its own instance. Users from both instances can interact with each other, but if, for example, the hard drive of ballsuckers.com were to fail, the entire ballsuckers.com instance would go down. However, this would not affect bingbong.com because its infrastructure is separate and managed independently.

I hope this helps!

Lol yes, I'm new as well so I just wanted to see how everyone felt. Feel free to post anything LGBTQ+ related, let's get the ball rolling in this community
