I would love info/data-sheets about all the instances, that would make the decision process easier:

• who de-federated who?
• who hosts most content related to topic X?
• number of users and their distribution of joined communities
• posts/second average user activity …

okay I will only torrent .txt ascii-encoded files then and open them in nano, this will make me totally secure.

… And open all other files I download in a sandboxed-environment

I think it is okay, when otherwise this would be just a bland text-only post, and the image is small/ not attention grabbing.

movies, music and pdfs/ebooks should be “okay” to pirate though, since they are more read than executable programs, right …

Yeah conflicting ideologies may lead to a splinter-net… but this also can be just a matter of an instance users taste. This is part of the federated nature of lemmy that allows this to happen.

I noticed Alt-Text is far less popular on lemmy than on mastodon.social, not a fan, but maybe it has to do something with the User-Interface, and how obvious alt-text is made.

the year of the snake lemming

On a more serious note: I wonder if the year of Lemmy will never come. Constant de-federation and churn might splinter it again, much like distros did kinda splinter the Linux desktop.

Do you know that feeling when you walk outside and suddenly have a random spiderweb-strain in your face? You need to wipe it out of your face with a hand. Maybe this was my spidery flying friend using electric fields to fly past my face.
