If you get it to output something, please do show the result to us others!

It looks like the technology behind this forum is not well-understood by you.

If you create an account on http://piefed.zip/ , you will see practically all of Fediverse, basically regardless of defederations. You have to go the settings there and specifically click some buttons to unblock a group of instances most people don’t want to see. But it can be done and you’ll get what you’re looking for.

I’ve come to the conclusion that @parallelminds@lemmy.world assumes a defedation splits the network into two islands completely isolated from each other. They don’t seem ti understand that a defederation only affects the two instances themselves, nothing else.

You don’t need an account for every defederated instance. The network is still one and whole. Defederation only hides the two instances’ activities from each other’s users, but you can use piefed.zip that doesn’t defederate from basically anything.

You will see all content defederated from lemmy.world and you will also see all content from lemmy.world.

If you use piefed.zip, you will get precisely the result you are describing you want. You will have all the Forumverse content behind one login, seamlessly.

I did not understand properly what you meant with this comment. Could you paraphrase, please?

Why do you then not move to an instance that offers that to you?

Then why are you on .world? There are plenty of instances that are widely federated.

No communities I want to see have ever disappeared. Just choose your instance wisely and all is okay.

Fecesbook does. Over there, communities are called “groups”, but it’s the same thing. I’m surprised if LickedIn doesn’t do the same.

what happens when instances defederate over ideological or other differences?

Their users get a better user experience.

Also, is there any centralized forum that is more active than the Threadiverse (Lemmy/Piefed/Pylova/Mbin)?

Fecesbook, Shitter, and LickedIn came to my mind first.

Then there are Reddit and Tumblr and a couple more.

But all of these are worse experiences than the Fediverse. And I believe that’s because the Fediverse is federated.

What are you talking about?

What fragmentation? I have had zero problems like that. Yeah, there is content that I am not directly seeing, but that is some seriously bad-quality content and if I want to fry my brain, I can always go to the home instances of the idiots and see their crud there.

The most important reason why federation is needed is that it’s the only known way to keep a forum non-commercial for good. You try adding advertisements to a Fediverse server, you get an exodus of users to other servers that show precisely the same content. If you try adding a mandatory ID check for a Fediverse server, users will migrate to servers who don’t have that.

Any non-federated social media will get facebookified/twitterified once it becomes seriously popular. You simply cannot sustainably run a forum without federation.

At least on the standard Finnish keyboard layout (not supported by any Microsoft operating systems, BTW…), you get that by pressing AltGr+T. And AltGr+D gives ð. And AltGr+S gives ß. Altogether there’s

How come?

A block allows the tankies to see the normal person’s comments and to reply to they. The only effect of a block is that you won’t know someone has replied to your comment and can badmouth you freely. So yeah, regarding blocks you are right.

But a defederation works differently. Users of a defederated instance do not see the comments on the otger side of the breakage at all, and therefore cannot troll under them either. If your instance fully defederates from the trolls, you really do get a better experience. There’s no need for everyone to defederate for defederation to benefit the instance’s users.

Recommend some instance that defederates the Tankie Triad. Problem solved?

And beside that, maybe choose an instance that is running PieFed, PyLova or mBin?

Why are you writing tankie in quotes?

One of my first experiences in the Fediverse was mentioning the Uyghur genocide and having my comment promptly removed by the .ml admins. They’ve been doing this all the time.

How about translating this to English and using the following as the standard?
