well, if we're blocking the biggest "fediverse instance" ever just because its owned by a giant tech corporation, that would only cause trouble adapting to the fediverse in the future

i mean yeah sure meta is evil and everything, but the point of the fediverse and the activitypub protool is that its open for anyone and everyone to adapt to their own tech, and blocking an instance with SEVERAL MILLIONS of people in it wont help improving the fediverse, we're doing the opposite of what we're supposed to do

might as well block every domain coming from meta since HTTP is also a federated and open protocol if thats gonna make it better

Don’t care, fuck meta. If you let them in they will ruin the place, like everything else they touch. Moderation tools are not mature enough to deal with the absolute tidal wave of shit their users will unleash.

There’s nothing stopping those people interested from joining the fediverse on another instance. But we don’t need the dregs of instagram cluttering up the nice communities we’re growing.

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
