Trains can't fly, gottem.

@lob I'm not sure what that means. I don't see anything on my end.

@BestOf might be of interest. The community sifts through the junk to share the most insightful comments.

The only way to get back at /u/spez is to promote !BestOf@kbin.social.

You can access most places (if not all) in the Fediverse using your kbin account.

At the top, 'threads' are like posts on Reddit. 'Microblogs' are like posts on Twitter. 'Magazines' are like subreddits.

Every magazine gets their own wall for threads and microblogs.

I also noticed that any moderation doesn't transfer between instances. I moderate @BestOf. I did remove one post for being irrelevant with the spirit of the community and it's still there on Lemmy. I hope this is something that can be fixed.

It is profitable.

It's like making 100K salary and paying the entirety of your $100K mortgage in 1yr and claiming you never made money.

MVP! Thank you @dipbeneaththelasers.

Why does anyone need a 'men's space'? I'm a man but I just would not be interested in that specifically. This is the Internet and there's a space for everything specifically. Sounds like a 'men's space' or a 'women's space' are bound to be filled with intolerance for the other genders.

This thread has the right vibe, I appreciate everyone here. I hope you are all moderators that can maintain your communities as we see in here.

Please come with me at !BestOf@kbin.social too. I want all of you there! We need some wholesome contributors, even if it's just a downvote.

Don't forget to subscribe to !BestOf@kbin.social.

As the Fediverse expands, the best content may become dispersed. This community will collect the most insightful posts and comments found on the Fediverse! We already have a healthy base and collection of best posts on the Fediverse.

Happy browsing!

Sounds like you've had this conversation before and you are comfortable being on the merry-go-around.

There's no way they would shut down old reddit.

Then again....

There's no way they would shut out third-party apps.

I think the problem with your opinion is that it conveys that you believe children are being throw into surgery rooms and given sex transitions loosely and without thought to the consequences.

I think your real opinion is that you believe children shouldn't be given unnecessary surgeries. If that is true, the large majority of the population would agree with you.

In addition, have you explored what Doctors believe is a necessary sex transition for a child? What are those parameters? If you don't know, then I would consider your original stance to be of ignorance. Since you really never dive into the subject, most people will assume that you haven't explored those parameters and don't understand the reasoning behind them. That is why you're facing aggression with your opinion.

You are entirely in control of what you say.. but it sounds like what you meant is not in line with what you're saying.

Do you deliberately want to belittle people with developmental issues? It doesn't sound like it. I think what @DrCog is trying to say is that you should consider lining up the words you use with the message you're actually trying to convey.

What censorship and freedom are you talking about?

Are edits transferred to other instances? I would imagine so.

I've had some time to think about it and I think I actually like the current setup. "Boost" provides more visibility to a post, while "upvote" and "downvote" is synonymous with agree/disagree.

In a way, I can disagree with someone AND boost it. Disagreeing with someone doesn't have to be hostile. I think it would be healthy if a community could disagree with each other in a civil manner.

I also like that if someone disagrees, that person cannot influence if the post gets less visibility.

I'm not exactly sure how to go about removing myself.

Are websites like kbin and lemmy a solution that returns power to the people or are we simply empowering different people?
