They did what? How are they suppose to tell me which communities I can check and which I am not allowed to see?
Time to move to a new instance, good riddance
Behold, federation in motion
Federation does not by definition require giving admins the ability to censor content. The Fediverse implementation unfortunately does, but it sure didn't need to.
That has nothing to do with the point. The admins are entitled to block whatever they like. If you dislike it, federation lets you chance instances so you can follow different rules you agree with. There's a ton of instances that are just as good and allow this stuff, so stop being centralized!
I'm gonna start my own personal instance actually.
With blackjack and hookers lmfao
In fact .... just forget the personal instance
and the blackjack
Awesome!
Aren't they really struggling with server costs?
Not anymore. Right from the first post the admins made about it, they tried to make it clear that they had come up with a plan to lower costs and should have realised before it was too late that AWS was gonna charge them through the nose once traffic increased. The migration’s complete now from what I understand, and it would take a huge influx of users to even come close to those figures now.
My instance is waiting for you
