(Defacto) Dictatorships don’t belong in the EU.
We have our hands full with Hungary, thanks.
I think this could be a ticking DOS time bomb.
Someone manages to spam upload massive files to the largest Lemmy instances could wipe out a ton of smaller ones.
Not to mention scalability wise this seems like a nightmare… eventually the largest Lemmy instances will have petabytes of media data with 100s of gbs coming in per day, giving other instances no chance to sync with them.
I think the system architecture needs a significant review. This won’t scale.
And a continent is just a really big island.

And done. I love federation.
I hate shorts and I’ve unsubscribed from any channels that make shorts.
I don’t subscribe to you for a 30 second adhd friendly clickbait video. Major respect lost for some channels.

Unsuprising.
I was following this case all week and the FTC really embarrassed itself. If this injunction was granted it would have been even more s suprising than the CMA coming out of nowhere to block the acquisition.
