Even TOS had a blatant anti-racism episode where the conclusion was very much explicitly "if we don't get along, we'll be left extinct on an empty, dead husk of a planet".

And if they could do that, someone else could use the same trick to do worse things, since they're just running bare JavaScript.
No. The existing Lemmy-Lite that was advertised on join-Lemmy.org appears to be massively out of date, and no longer actively maintained.
It was a bug with Lemmy-UI, so you might be able to get away using an app or site that isn't vulnerable. Whether that is Wefwef, one of the apps, like Jerboa, or something that is Federated, but not Lemmy, like Kbin, or Mastodon (things might be a bit clunky if you do, since Lemmy threads aren't well handled by Mastodon).
That sounds like a horrid decision. Imagine having to troubleshoot a relative's computer, which isn't working because their internet is down, or is too slow to support streaming Windows like that.
It just sounds like a nightmare all-round, both from a Microsoft Standpoint, since they would have to build all the hardware to support it, people who would have to troubleshoot an issue that might show up on either the local or networked version of Windows, but not both, and from a security standpoint, since it seems like it would make it a lot easier to just hijack the whole computer using that kind of mechanism, with the user being none the wiser, for the most part.
Have you never been to /r/SubSim2Interactive?
Although you have to wonder how much advertisers would actually pony up if most of the Reddit users weren't actual users at all. They want people to do the clicking, and if the users are all bots, they're likely not going to bother wasting their money at that point.
It's also accessible with <WinKey> + ;. Not quite sure why Windows has multiple shortcuts for the same menu, but there we are.
Unless it's using the Registry for some config values.
It doesn't seem to have been implemented for the time being. You might have to make do with using a search engine with the site:kbin.social/m/[magazine] parameter.
I've seen a few spam bots, but most of the bothersome people are probably kept out either by curation, the barrier of entry, or are simply on their own instances.
It's also a bit bothersome if you're there. The people who stay are probably aware of the alternatives, but also don't feel like moving, so people going over and trying to get them to join Kbin/Lemmy are the equivalent of people asking you to join the Church on the street. Having the alternate community on the sidebar, or if the sub shuts down is fine, but probably not a good idea to shove things into people's faces.
You're already aware that the Church exists, and the advertising is not going to make them want to join it any time soon. If anything quite the opposite, or it'll make them want to cause trouble just out of spite.
Indeed. You would have expected it to have been occupied by a domain squatter or something.
Others did get hacked, or are vulnerable to it, but aren't big enough targets?
Beehaw is closed, so they would have had to have an existing account to exploit the same bug (or go through something like Kbin), and Lemmy.world is the biggest Lemmy instance.
