AphoticDev

You got me there. Doing stuff like that on other platforms like the Switch totally prevented piracy, so I suppose it’s a good thing they didn’t do it on a system that thousands of devs know down to the kernel without having to reverse engineer.

It’s built on Linux. Specifically Arch Linux. So no, there’s nothing they could have done to lock it down to prevent piracy. Not even if they wanted to.

Of course, the idiot admin isn’t the only person doubling down on being wrong.

Isn’t that the instance that had the admin who threw a fit about the NSFW lemmy? And doubled-down when it was pointed out they were wrong? The whole point is he wants an instance where people aren’t gonna defederate for stupid reasons.

Ah, yes. The math agenda. The deadliest of all the agendas. He who masters it, masters the universe.

What do you mean underestimate? He said “ASAP”. That means “as soon as possible”, not “very soon”. ASAP can mean next week, or three years from now. He didn’t underestimate, he simply gave no time frame.

Except it’s not a minority? Maybe you didn’t shop around for an instance, but most fediverse users do.

Why would I block anything? I’m not a prude, and I’m capable of accepting my mistakes when they’re pointed out to me.

The blahaj admin fucked up, and rather than admitting they fucked up, they decided to drag the issue into the public sphere and infer the other instance supports CSAM. And don’t give me any bullshit about how that’s not really what they are doing, because that’s exactly how they worded their post. I’m guessing they did it because they wanted to create drama and play the victim, but whatever the reason, everyone else has every right to criticize them for their actions. What they did was pretty fucking shitty, and they should be ashamed of themselves.

The blahaj admin defederating is totally fair, and it’s the whole point of the fediverse. The dragging the issue into the public view to cover up their own mistaken impression is absolutely silly. The public attack in the form of implication that the other admin is supporting CSAM is sickening. This person comes across as the type to manufacture drama to make themselves seem like a victim. Were I an instance admin, they would be exactly the kind of person I would want to defederate from, as nothing good comes from association with people who like to play victim for attention.

The fediverse runs on drama and fake outrage. There’s whole communities dedicated to talking about the latest fedi drama.

It’s more dramatic to block a whole instance though, isn’t it?
