Instances are like subreddits where the mods are top level admins, and there is no central admin above them. Anyone who wants to create an instance can host their own server. Communities can be duplicated between instances so you could have dozens of c/gaming communities rather than a single community for a topic which stifles engagement a bit. The cost of hosting is paid by the admins of an instance or by donations. Sponsors and ads are not currently feasible.

Unmoderated instances allow any new instance’s content to be displayed for their users.

Yall have done great work in spite of the circumstances.

If you remember the drama back when Fabric came around or even before then: the head developer of Forge has been what the youfs call a “discord moderator” for a long time. A petty tyrant stifling innovation and using his stranglehold on the entire Minecraft modding community to suppress competition and simply people he doesn’t like. The behavior was tolerated because no alternative was developed/popular enough to gain influence.

Not sure what the final straw was though. Perhaps a critical mass of mod devs escaping to Fabric.

You don’t have to wait for it to cool. As water evaporates the dissolved solids in it reach a higher concentration. If the concentration becomes greater than the molecule’s solubility it will precipitate and fall to the bottom.

He just like me fr.

He gets a pass on this one though. His sister’s large breasts are quite admirable.

The source code can be forked. That particular issue is nothing to be concerned about.

Lemmygrad is tankies idolising the USSR instead of the CCCP.

Grownups and grownups 2. Definitely two of the movies of all time.

You can still read posts witjout federation. And you could still comment on theirs within your home instance. You just wouldn’t be able to post within their instance.

There is no objective purpose to life. Having a hobby is a popular way to enjoy the limited time available.

The name comes from the USSR’s practice of deploying tanks to crush dissent.

Whitelist federation is one strategy. Rather than defaulting to federation with every instance a proactively moderated instance would only federate with approved requests.

Not sure if that was a joke or a sincere lack of familiarity. What tankies want is a restoration and supremacy of the USSR to spread what they called communism.

For a healthy diet make sure to only eat reasoned rebuttals sparingly. You should get most of your nutrition from name calling. /s

Each level of argument has a purpose. Know your audience and use whatever is most effective. You’re not going to get anywhere calling a doctor a poopyhead just as you won’t accomplish anything by presenting facts to a conspiracy theorist.

Your audience will be most effectively convinced by logic, emotion, or authority. It should be pretty simple to figure out which one to use.

In some contexts arguing is synonymous with conflict.

When I argue in a public forum my goal is directed more to third parties than to an individual who may not be acting in good faith.

Yeah pronouns can get really messy. I try to avoid them as much as I can in technical writing so I can follow my own sentences lol.

I find it most inconvenient when “they” is used to refer to one person and a group in the same paragraph.
