    Communities should be able to move servers

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/1495501 > Idea: if you mod a community on a lemmy.somewhere you should be able to migrate it to lemmy.elsewhere which would include all post & comment links being forwarded and subbed users having their subscription updated to reflect the new location. > > I'm aware this would be a way down the road as user account migration alone is still not great but it would be a great feature for the fediverse to have to avoid centralisation and mod/server admin wars.

    Inflation and DeSantis
  • melmc melmc 1y ago 8%

    This is idiocy. DeSantis has no control over the borrowing and spending of federal funds which is the underlying cause of inflation in the general economy. The reason prices may be increasing more in FLA is that people are moving there in droves from Democratically controlled hellholes like California, New York, Illinois, NJ, etc. because DeSantis has made FLA a better place to live.

    DeSantis keeps looking like a Trump copycat
  • melmc melmc 1y ago 0%

    It's easy to see why DeSantis would be a better version of Trump. He has more personal integrity and he is less of a blowhard. He actually gets things done instead of just talking big.

    Probably doesn't matter much. If you don't have a definite fixed opinion on Trump at this point, you are probably comatose and won't be voting.

    I think one thing he is trying to communicate to Republican primary voters is that Trump cannot possible win the general election in 2024, so it is time to move on.

    US Special Counsel Seeks to Have Trump's Classified Docs Trial Begin December 11
  • melmc melmc 1y ago 10%

    Your logic lesson for today:

    The genetic fallacy is the act of rejecting or accepting an argument on the basis of its origin rather than its content. Under the genetic fallacy, we judge a claim by paying too much attention to its source or history, even though this criticism is irrelevant to the truth of the claim.

    If you understand the genetic fallacy you should realize that calling the originator of the argument a name is insufficient to refute the argument.

    Have you looked at Nostr? It is based on public and private key pairs used for encryption. The public key serves as your ID. The UI is similar to Twitter and it allows for Lightning payments which are referred to as Zaps, i.e if you like the post, you can send the poster Satoshis. It also allows for DMs. Some clients provide a group chat feature.
