Be careful about "unsubscribing" to various services.
They will unsubscribe you, but then they also have all of your information (name, address, anything else) on record and confirmed. They can profit when the sell that data to another mailer "service". It's like a Hydra.
I'd thought that even the most liberal people on nü-Lemmy had at least read some Chomsky (or even watched the documentaries based on his work), but I guess we aren't even there yet.

I'm onboard with the spirit of the post, but I encourage you to find another insult
It was a mistake (though natural) to trust Reddit with all that knowledge in the first place.
It's a wise decision by instance admins to have a clean separation between regular and NSFW content IMO.
I think it's likely that there will be a parallel NSFW fediverse that has little overlap with regular content, and that's probably for the best.
So some people really not grasp that?
Actually, yes, the original FOSS movement had more right-libertarian roots than anything to the left, although nowadays some might see it as "common ground".
My understanding was that they're very unreliable in their current state, but I'm definitely not up to speed.
I think what sites have been running into is that it's difficult to tell what is and is not AI-generated, so enforcement of a ban is difficult. Some would say that it's better to have an AI-generated response out there in the open, which can then be verified and prioritized appropriately from user feedback. If there's a human generated response that's higher.quality, then that should win anyway, right? (Idk tbh)
You can be the one to spin something up, but like others point out, it's a major responsibility to moderate that sort of thing.
It's not "leftist" necessarily, but all leftists should inform themselves about the Russian Revolution IMO, which is covered by season 10 (the final and currently ongoing season) of the Revolutions|^Spotify^ podcast.
Mike Duncan isn't explicitly leftist or anything, but he really does his homework and portrays things in a really neutral way. Whether or not you are a big stan of the USSR and what came after, the Russian Revolution was the most successful attempt at overthrowing capitalism (to an extent), and any future movement should learn from and analyze all aspects of what happened in those years.
Citations Needed|^Spotify^ is my other favorite with their in-depth media criticism (if you like Chomsky's stuff, you'll probably like what they have to say).
Key difference is that Bitcoin people want/need their numbers to go up,up,up as a measure of success.
Here, we are hoping to cultivate a healthy community (at either/both the instance and fediverse level). From my experience on various subreddits, focusing on growth is not a good way to do this.
Communities are defined more by who is not allowed in than by who is in the community. Lemmy phase 2 kicked off back in June, and it still needs some time to find its footing at a sustainable rate of growth.
