No ma’am, this is a Wendys drive thru.

But really, I think you misunderstood the intended inference from OP, it has nothing to do with email and everything to do with data collection, algorithms, and not quite fair use media access that get’s logged to Google (a third party) ad infinitum.

They’ve long been suspected of being greedy lil GPL violaters.

Jokes on you, I google it using ddg!

Tildes has been well known to be a trash pile from its earliest days.

Looks more like you are interested in more influence power, and control for yourself.

What qualifies you to be in a leadership position that directly affects content control?

Your instances are not being used the way you wanted, so you propose structural and organizational changes that, suprise, benefit your administrative influence from your instances.

You’re so focused on the details of your solution, you don’t seem to be holding or acknowledging any objective perspectives.

VOTES ARE ALREADY PUBLIC.

If you are using Lemmy because you want privacy, you’ve already missed the boat, everything is wide assed open for datamining and advertising fingerprinting.

I’d hoped for an open system with open APIs and open implementations that allow everyone equal access to the system and bring equal accountability.

If people just want Reddit style fiefdoms with no real public accountability possible, then make a blackjack and hookers fork.

I’m really not interested in a system that bakes in more authoritarian secrecy and control, which could very well be an unexpected outcome of backlash to how this has been presented.

I’ll argue that crocodile tears deserve downvotes, as do bullies.

Im pro jewish, Im pro Israeli, but im so anti-injustice that I’m willing to stand up to anyone pushing for or acting as a pro-war Israel supporter, or jewish as an Israeli identity when it comes to being prowarfare, when they still support what has quickly evolved into a politically strategic genocide against palestinians. Hamas deserved what it got in the immediate aftermath of October 7, but after 2 weeks then 3 weeks then a month then 2 months it showed that despite all of Israels’ military and civilian efforts of having an experienced security apparatus steeped in information warfare and threat containment, they didnt have the effective strategic competence to actually wipe out Hamas without having to constantly murder civilians.

But they went ahead and kept on fucking killing.

So now, they keep moving goal posts for any chance of peace. Its not a new strategy, but it has far more violent consequences and only further spreads fervor for more violence. Peace begets peace. One side doesn’t get to play that against the other like a ping pong match and expect objective obervers to fall for either side’s propaganda.

This is all revenge without justice now.

Take your foot off the throttle.

Stop acting like a redditor.

The whole point of Redditors migration to Lemmy is to replace Reddit. You’re absolutely free to deploy your own instance and develop your own fork or extensions to Lemmy’s code so it works in a way you prefer on your terms.

All of the corporate internet adopted open protocols in the first place. Expand your limited view and increase your awareness of the history of the networks as they evolved before Google, Microsoft, and Apple were beginning and end of tech. We got to now with open protocols. Now everything is being walled up by DRM since theyve managed to preintegrate it in all of the hardware across the board before the open protocols even come into play.

Embrace, extend, extinguish.

You are either innocently unaware of how it works or just dissassociating from reality. Meta has to compete with Fediverse if it can’t directly harvest user activity for marketing and advertising systems. They quite obviously will (have to?) do everything they can to influence technical decisions that allow them to steer the protocols in a way that is profitable rather than for the good of the end users and communities.

They ultimately will seek to build walls around their development and services on their terms and leave others not part of their profitable ecology of development outside of those walls. They are a publicly traded corporation, this is just a normal evolution in for-profit corps, even if current employees do act as positive curators of community engagement.

Whys that? Stability has improved the last few years, and the value cant be beat with UDM pro and even their lowest cost camera options.

They are an excellent value next to most other otpions if youve ever actually implemented more than one solution.

Thats not really virtue signaling unless the org is using it for PR reasons, it’s just asking others to respect your wishes in a cooperative community sense rather than a legal demand. This is a more technical side of things than the politics everyone injects.

Im a proponent supporting these LLaMA systems, they are really just the next iteration of Search systems. Just like with search engines, they use traffic and server time with queries and its good manners for everyone to follow the robots.txt limits of every site, but the freedom is still inherent under an open internet that a third party can read the site for whatever reasons. If you dont want take part in the open community part of the open internet of the world, you don’t have to expose anything at all to public access that can be scraped.

I rarely read paywalled news sites because they opt to not to be part of the open community of information sharing that our open internet represents.

I’m kinda concerned if this issue has no solution because it’s a pretty sharp edge of the double edge sword of having instances anyone can create and host.

That concern is because you want a target for some outrage reaction takes, rather than just being thoughtful and aware of how things work in the first place.

**What’s stopping someone from making henious content hosted on a website, or any sort of webservice at all that has nothing to do with fediverse/lemmy? **

**Morality, decency, the community, the ability of hosts to self-police, the law itself, and law enforcement. **

This may feel anonymous, but just like with any other service, you are and will be tracked, even using tor and similar technologies to try and hide, it’s not at all foolproof.
