They hive mind is just as strong on lemmy as it is on Reddit. which has led me to wind-down my engagement on lemmy and will very soon drop it all together. going back to RSS I guess or might try nostr next.

According to your handle, it might be you who is intersted in that sort of shit, but you are instead reflecting it on others.

You mean Twitter ? which every liberal, leftist and their grandma still using it, despite it turning into a Nazi platform

You kinda intentionally ignoring my point, I was asking for suggestion of different models, even different protocols if they exist. not instance - community - moderation based ones.

At this point I am disappointed with every other internet model that came out so far. and I don’t think that moderation has been a good addition, I can see the need for it if you are building a community around your own persona, like a streamer or influencer fandom. but for things like politcs and economies and stuff it just turns into echo chambers.

Do you need to pay for those relays, or register with those relays like you to on lemmy to be able to post ?

can you move your account from one relay to another ?

Are ther modded communities or subreddits like they are on lemmy ?

Do you need an app to be constantly connected in the background like briar messenger or all content is hosted on the relays?

No I want people to be able to block my post just as I can block other people’s posts, but I don’t need a moderator to block either my posts or other people’s posts to be seen by everybody else engaging in that discussion, thread, theme, hashtag, what ever you name it.

When blocking is done at an individual level it doesn’t silence or shutdown views or ideas from the discussions, every individual is free to not engage with people or ideas they don’t agree with, but they shouldn’t have the power to block those ideas for everybody else.

Isn’t ZeroNet a dead archived project ?

Thanks, at least this is a helpful response, Will check it out!

No this federation experiment is at the end for me.

I don’t believe in the federation model anymore. I was looking for a p2p protocol like a big bitorrent swarm, something more decentralized where no one has power over the discussions. I want to filter the content I want to consume. I dont’t need someone else to decide what I should or should not read. I was hoping for an open network where every node have the same leverage and you only mod your own feed.

You can’t escape moderation and censorship in lemmy. If a moderator of a certain big community has a certain heavy bias towards a subject and moderates accordingly. you are just bared from such discussions. communities suffer from the same network effects as social media do. I can take heat and shitty people but I can’t stand silencing.

I might check nostr. is it app relient ??

Statcounter numbers are to be taker with boulders of salt. you can look at many metrics and especially when you filter by country. you will see a lot of erratic unexplained changes. jumping down and then a few months lather up by sometimes up to double digits.

The answer has always been I2P! they can nothing against what is shared on it!

they first succeeded in curbing piracy before the moved to ruining the value of their offerings.
