Those are actually all really good points. Nevermind about my idea then…

I think it would be cool if something like “meta-communities” existed. Fully adjustable, fully optional. Less duplicates.
You’d sub to one meta c/memes or c/news and see a combined feed of all known instance’s versions. Post to whichever you want, show up in the meta (if you want).
If you still want to block from the meta sub or individually sub to c/memes on ABC instance, you could do that. Moderation would be subject to the instance the user posted on, subject to broader instance admin’s defederations and stuff.
Idk just a quick idea. Decentralization is good, but a little bit of… aggregation like this could go a long way without actually centralizing power. Could help communities (big and small niche) to grow.

Their business was to index the entire internet. Now they practically are the internet. Don’t be evil very much meant something beyond ads and imo it meant “don’t fucking become Sauron”

Democrats have done far more to reason with Republicans this election cycle than they have with third party voters on the left who at least don’t want genocide but know that the duopoly is never going to budge on their undying support of Israel. Let alone other actually progressive policies.
I was going to block them and lemmygrad at first but decided not to and instead tried to understand what all these people were about.
Now I’m a communist, have a hammer and sickle, live in China, and my favorite color is red. Death to America comrades! Get fucked libs /s
Seriously though, they’re not anymore insane than us. Maybe just a bunch of drunken commies at a bar who don’t really bother to distance themselves from the subjects of a century of red scare propaganda. In any case, it’s worth keeping an open mind and engaging in good faith.
Though as leftist as I personally am and have become in time, I’m not going to call anyone comrade or start using hammer and sickle imagery except in the context of history lol. Libs can still get fucked though.

There’s only a JD Vance there.
