  • Static discharge has a high amperage as well, but it lasts nanoseconds, plasma globes and tesla coils are way too high of a frequency to disrupt heartbeat. people want a simple thing, but electricity is not simple.

    lethality of electricity means some amount of energy was dumped in a certain time-range, in a form that is disruptive to muscle function. any of that missing, and you’re either fine, or cooked from the inside depending on the current.

    if you can see the code, it’s open source. the term you’re looking for is FOSS, and it’s “free” as in the community is free to benefit from all modifications as a whole. freedom of end users vs freedom of developers.










  • can’t have your cake and eat it too. the way federation works means bigger instances will always have more influence, but it’s a double edged sword. They cannot defederate from everything or it just turns into a normal centralized reddit knockoff, so the best thing to do is not to give in to their demands, if it gets bad enough the users will move; something else will become the next “flagship instance”.

    nothing is exactly stopping you from jumping instances each time until you find someone that does not care for petty cross-site drama. username and comment history goes bust, but maybe that’s a good thing; less traceability.



  • fwiw i agree, the internet could do less with propaganda from world superpowers. If what you’re saying is true, i’d just find an instance that does not listen to foreign admins regarding bans; and for users i’d just block ones you do not like. no need to isolate yourself from the community any further, we’re already plenty isolated from not being on the big social medias. quokk looks like a good place for you.

    Don’t how how the lemmy census is, but unless the instance refers to a specific country like lemmy.ca or feddit.org i would imagine that the split between “big three” and other countries is roughly the same, regardless if they federate or not.



  • I know admins can power trip, but i don’t believe that just so happens to be the case for every single instance you sign up for just because your political viewpoints are different, unless you’re incredibly confrontational about them or you’re a literal nazi fascist; which no one here likes, twitter would be a better place then.

    For obvious reasons i don’t have access to comments on your previous accounts, but from what you said i would try re-evaluating whether it really is true that everyone else is the problem, and you’re 100% blameless.


  • as i see it, the point of lemmy and mastodon is the federation, so the infrastructure can be decentralized but the content on there isn’t. like other guy said, probably better to search for isolated forums for topics that you like. upside is that stalkers will have a way harder time tracking all of your online activity.
