Timbit Trump has had a terrible history as MP, I don’t want to see him as PM.

Retirement for the environment

That’s awesome! Yes each country, region, municipality should have their own instance. I’ve spun up a Lemmy instance and going to try and make grassroots in roads by going to local businessses and trying to get them to sign up.

Its a chicken and the egg dilemma. Trying to get users is hard, but if there are businesses that interact with local users then there’s something more whole some. Not zucc, musky, or the other broligarchs making pennies on each local interaction. Their power needs to be usurped by the people.

Yes it’s good on the surface, but echo chambers are near impossible to break. Having everyone on fediverse where there’s not perverse incentives to tailor algorithms to keep your engagement could help free some younger minds.

Its still a curated echo chamber and not reflective of the broader society, but its not a broligarch making pennies on each click either. For online social discourse, transparency is key.

Reddit has recently been issue warnings for users that engage (read: upvote) with content construed as inciting violence. Free and open discourse is not tenable on the main platforms (Meta, X, Reddit, etc.) and are being astro-turfed by bots trying to drive wedges in the communities.

There’s apparently a French version? I haven’t heard it but if its same lyrics then sure add both!

For the people by the people, no big corporations at the helm. No advertisements, no trackers, no weird algorithms, just organic community discussions. That’s what Lemmy and the fediverse is about.

Removed by mod

This instance was setup using a devops as a service (devops is automating deployment) using resources here: https://elest.io/open-source/lemmy

Deploying a webserver is half the issue, it requires setting up domains using DNS and other OpSec information (SSH is on by default for all IPs). The console of elestio is great like better than most most cloud providers even “enterprise grade”.

As the todos grow it will be indicative of what needs to occur and steps others will need to setup to ensure things go smoothly and this Lemmy instance has reliable uptime.

There are are also scaling issues that could need to be addressed if this becomes a popular instance. There’s a few things i’d like to add to the scripts used to setup the Lemmy instance or maybe make some changes to the code but that’s more long term.

I think it to be important that we form an online community that is open and transparent and works for our community.
