On the other hand, Trump's FAA has made airplanes do impromptu land acknowledgements

Basically yes.

The heckler's veto is not freedom.

There are a lot of groups which coordinate spreading of lies to shout down others and deter others from contributing, firehose of falsehood style, and allowing that does not contribute to free speech. It does not support sharing facts, it doesn't support healthy conversation, it doesn't help anybody learn or discover the truth. Allowing conspiracy theories and nonsense like that is a net negative.

You need moderators who are focused on making sure people feel free to join in good faith.

Just checked who the existing mod is, and I recognize the handle @[email protected] from reddit (although they haven't been active in either place recently)

Like I said, wouldn't just want to suddenly kick out existing mods, although they don't seem to be around so 🤷

If it wasn't then most of those farmers would find other buyers

Did you?

Every time Republicans got elected they did terrible things. Every time the warning was correct

In the story people are warned when nothing bad was coming, but Republicans have been led by evil people since at least Reagan

Republicans are the ones who was really calling wolf with all their fake panics, but nobody ever calls them out for it

But they don't even need lies to make Republicans look bad. They just need to push harder

And now the wolf came.

The danger was real, unlike the dangers Republicans scream about. Why didn't anybody tell THEM they're crying wolf?

So basically engineers managed to even take solar power where we have steam-free power generation and insert steam into it anyway

Engineers loves taking every imaginable form of energy source and turn it into a way to drive a steam engine

Told you that you should've asked someone to explain

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

So you're admitting you didn't read any of my comments, and that you don't understand that only very narrow types of lies are criminalized while the vast majority are not

Hint: read my first comment again

And then again

And then again, and notice the parentheses this time. Then ask somebody to explain it to you.

Hi all!

On reddit I'm the main moderator for a cryptography subreddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/crypto and I'm considering migrating it.

There's a few cryptography subreddits (one named cryptography which is the main option), the main difference with the one I run is we're a bit stricter about being on topic and thus maintaining higher quality discussions (in part because we're under a heavy flood of spam bots, so we need to filter strictly). We got plenty of people over there who are professional cryptographers

I see there's also a cryptography forum on this instance, but it's very scattered and doesn't really have very high quality posts. I wouldn't want to just take over an existing forum here, if I move the reddit community I'd like to recreate /r/crypto as a new forum here and establish it with all the same rules, etc.

Is there interest from the admins for that here? And how dedicated are the admins to maintaining this instance in the long term? (I don't want to have to move the forum multiple times)

And how much interest is there from the lemmy community?

(sidenote - this time around I'd handle moderation from a separate account, not from my main)
