You mean, someone who asks what people could do to end violence are bad people?
And people who support violence are good people?
I’d rather take my ban in some hate-spreader Community with pride when justice in the real world rules over terrorism.
Well, 172 nations on Earth see it like this:
Israel is a friendly state in hostile neighbourhood…
Hamas and Hisbollah are terrorist organisations.
Or least they were. Nowadays we better speak in past tense about them. This bites you, doesn’t it?
I’d rather take my ban in some hate-spreader Community with pride when justice in the real world rules over terrorism.
I am just posting facts with which 90% of all people on Earth agree:
Israel is a friendly state.
Hamas is an internationally recognized terrorist organisation.
Or to be precise: It was. Nowadays it is mostly history. This bites you, doesn’t it?
No.
Reddit rarely bans. VERY rarely.
And NEVER for comments.
Sure, they delete like hell. Posting something in r/news is harder than landing on the moon, same goes for r/noncredibledefence and other Reddits.
But Lemmy is going bonkers, many high-profile Communities are held under an iron thumb like the moderators are all paid by the Axis-of-Evil (Russia, Iran, North-Korea).
Thanks for joining my side. As you can see this wasn’t the post which led to the ban.
Uhm, what is wrong about chaining prisoners? I mean, that is exactly what you do when you arrest someone suspected to be violent.
Well, thanks for driving the discussion offtopic because we all knew who is the real terrorist as accepted by 172 nations. Reported.
Please do so. I must say that my activity on Lemmy has already dropped dramatically but I still open it once a month or so and read all messages in the communities I moderate.
In 2021 I wrote a story “The Typo which saved humanity” on Reddit and it exploded to 3000 upvotes in less than a day. A couple of years later I wrote a story “Day of the Fat Man” which got 50 upvotes. Everybody I ask considered the second one the better one.
Then I reposted those stories on Youtube and Facebook and both got around the same upvotes, around 5k+ on each.
Yes, Reddit has become quite dead.
But to be honest, my stories on Lemmy got like 50 upvotes so… meh.
2015: Share your Netflix between four people, everyone pays $4 per month, have access to 80% of all online content. The interface is shit but you keep up with it because it is cheap.
2023: You pay $20 for Netflix, pay $15 for Disney, pay $15 for Hulu, pay $10 for Amazon Prime, $15 for Discovery, $15 for Paramount, $15 for Youtube, have access to 50% of all online content. The interface is still shit and you wonder why you pay for that shit.
Joe Average: 🏴☠️😎🏴☠️😎🏴☠️😎🏴☠️😎🏴☠️😎🏴☠️ and the interface is easier than ever.
My 2013 Highest-End Smart-TV barely works with Youtube and no longer with anything else. But Burning Series still works marvellous. Another thing: “Consuming” pirated content is not “illegal” in Germany. It is a violation of private property which the rights owner can sue in a civil court. But as long as you don’t use P2P services where you also upload - which would indeed be a fellony - he can not detect what you do and can not take any action against you - so One-Click-Hosters and Warez-Streaming is totally safe. And if the rights owner could find out about you he could at most send you a cease-and-desist-order with a one-time-fee of at max $100 because it is a minor incident. As far as I know there was never a user of Warez-Streaming who paid anything.
The only bad thing: DNS is nowadays filtered at the big Telcos and Providers which means I have to change the DNS inside my Routers to Cloudflare and Google. Which are a lot faster anyway.
I just want to point out there are some plugins and scripts to use Youtube from VLC. The “Library” then works as a search frontend. It is supercool though I can’t find the link at the moment. I remember I had to download some scripts manually and place them into my VLC-Installation. Another bone: Massively reduced CPU power. Playing a Youtube-Video in Firefox needs like four times more power. Really nice if you work on battery.
For reruns in Argentina, nothing beats Disney’s Zorro. It’s a full-on revered classic here.
Wow, I remember that one too from my child hood. The German TV played it once, the Austrian TV played it like over and over again. Don’t ask me why but the Austrian TV was always miles better than the German TV. Living close to the border allowed us to watch both, sometimes even the Swiss TV which was usually attrocious.
Well, in the 1970/1980 there actually were still a lot of black and white movies on TV. “The Streets of San Francisco” “Kojak” “Dragnet” not to mention the endless reruns of Stan and Laurel.
Sometimes in the 1990th I bought an Asimov Foundation collection book with 1500 pages something. The End of the book contained 200 pages of the scientific state of “real world psychohistory” written by half a dozen scientist from various related fields.
Back then the opinion was “Asimov’s vision was inspiring, far from being point on but had definitely substance.”
The book contained a couple of estimates. The only thing they were wrong about was the War on Terror but also they had explicitly ruled out the possibility of predicting actions of small groups of humans anyway.
I remember they were filtered even by Reddit because people couldn’t see where the link led.
Using Unicode-Chars doesn’t help for Links :-)
There is a stupid alternative: I now link my Reddit-Wiki (yes, my 30something stories have a Wiki) and put the link there. I have no filters on my Wiki ofcourse.
I updated the original post, it is not Reddit but Reddit HFY.
Gawd, the way Reddit tries to shadow ban is like a five minute hack for me to counter with a tiny perl script. It helps absolutely nothing against bots but annoys normal users.
Well as the banning is instantaneous I guess it is from Reddit itself. The post just never shows up. Simple tricks seem to bypass the filter: https://lemmy(dot)world/post/3375662 (Reddit filters their biggest competitor) gets through
NSFW seems reasonable though there is so much porn on Reddit I wonder what they are thinking. But normal Links? That is pretty low. But well, it is Reddit. Only X is worse.
do you see the message with the link to lemmy.world too?
Wow, this goes deeper. A fresh Edge browser does show the link post. A old Edge browser doesn’t. All browsers with strict privacy settings don’t show the link. Firefox in Private Mode and with Adblock doesn’t show it. Edge and Chrome in private mode don’t show it either. A fresh chrome doesn’t show it. An older Installation of Chrome does.
Reddit is doing something very strange.
Edit: It seems some browsers showed the messages when they were fresh in the cache. Obviously they are displayable for a fraction of a second before getting shadow-filtered.
