You're doing it wrong.

There is no evidence that Ukraine is behind collapse of the bridge. Maybe it's just shoddy engineering?

Od ostatniego lata dostępność lnianych ciuchów w sieciówkach poprawiła się nieporównywalnie. Możesz iść do zwykłego H&M i bez problemu powinieneś znaleźć coś jednocześnie nie wydając na to fortuny (nawet poniżej stówki za długi rękaw).

Let's do whodunnit, part 2, continued from Nova Khakovka dam debacle.

Let's not rule out that russia damaged the bridge. By redirecting civilian traffic to Melitopol they could be using it as human shield to military supply lines.

EU stats:

• In May 2023, the youth unemployment rate was 13.9 % both in the EU and in the euro area,
• Euro area unemployment at 6.5 % in May 2023,
• EU unemployment at 5.9 % in May 2023,

Comparatively, Denmark, the country with unions being core part of economy (70% of the workforce is unionized):

• Youth unemployment in 2022 was 8.78 %
• Unemployment in 2022 was 4.17 %

Oh, it happened immediately. Thankfully anti-russian sentiment prevails in most instances while alt/far-right keeps drumming this up, especially around anniversaries. They became so interested in historical remembrance only after second invasion of Ukraine. Curious, right?

I'm Polish and my family on father's side is from Volhynia. My grandfather who passed couple of years ago sometimes spoke that both Ukrainians and Poles committed some pretty terrible things in a cycle of revenge and escalation. He wanted to leave it behind though, despite some members of my family bombarding him with increasingly dubious books on those events.

Not sure why do you need to capitalize so much but this article doesn't dispute if those were illegal migrants nor does it attribute blame.

It's about how coast guard pressured victims to lie about cause of death of 600 people, including 100 children. This does not present coast guard in the best light though.

I was there too and it sucked. I don't understand how XMPP server operators blacklisting Google and Facebook would have prevented that though.

Threads is already magnitudes bigger than Mastodon. They don't need Activity Pub to poach users.

Yes, it's healthy to block scammers. I was asking specifically if there's an instance of an internet protocol where non-commercial entities decide to block commercial ones like here. Like refuse interoperability with Hotmail / outlook.com because Microsoft is nasty. That's what's being proposed by many here.

Threads is already massive, they're happy with monetising their own users and likely do Activity Pub to appease EU regulators.

I'm for federating with any instance that doesn't exist explicitly to break this community rules. I turned blind eye to not defederating Exploding Heads because Lemm.ee is a small server that doesn't host any big communities they could interfere with. I thought it was an indication that it's an instance that would allow me to curate my experience.

This is a European server, it's fair to assume most of the users here are protected by GDPR. The talk of scraping data seems like a nonsense, Meta can do it without federating. And as Elon learned, closing your APIs means other entities will do web scraping which puts more stress on your infrastructure.

I don't understand how most people here are for open standards, interoperability and the moment their protocol of choice gets traction they drop everything and opt to create their walled garden, except with 5 dozens of people. This is it, you've literally won. I guess some people will keep fighting big corporations for any reason on principle. That's ok but not something most people are interested in.

There's a lot of talk about how XMPP was killed by Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. I'm convinced 99% people posting that same blog post that sells opinions as facts, haven't actually lived through it. XMPP was embraced, then Google and Facebook got bored, dropped it and moved on. They did not poison the protocol in any way.

If Meta tries to extend Activity Pub in a malicious way then that's the point you defederate. If they get bored of Activity Pub and move on you have lost nothing, you probably gained more users than you would if you didn't federate. I don't believe it will come to this, EU Digital Markets Act means more platforms will have to open up, other commercial platforms will join in to capitalize on that and we'll end up with consortiums coming up with reasonable changes to standards. If not they'll get bonked by EU regulators with even more laws.

Finally, it's a shame that we've done this vote via Lemmy post. It has hit "All" view for a lot of people who are not part of this instance and probably irreversibly poisoned this discussion.
