Cool the world

We’re paying them to produce this pollution.

That should definitely be illegal.

I don’t think they’ll stop until they have the whole historic area of Israel (which includes more than just Palestine.) Crazy that this is allowed.

Conversation about hot topics is going to happen no matter what. As long as it stays respectful I think it’s ok.

Guess I stand corrected then.

To be fair there was no one tracking the migrant boat because they were crossing illegally. We knew the sub went missing basically as soon as it did rather than when people started spotting bodies. In situations where migrant boats are found before/in the midst of sinking help is sent (although after that it’s probably a trip to the detention centre.)

The Greek shipwreck is an unfortunately common tragedy. Whether in the Mediterranean or elsewhere migrant bodies frequently wash ashore. The Titanic story is something novel, and I think at least partially people see it as something justified for adventure tourism exclusive to the extremely wealthy to end poorly. There is nothing to really get excitement out of from the shipwreck, it’s just sad.

The community vibe is definitely a huge motivation. They want to be able to control the sort of people on their instance which they can’t do if the mass user bases from lemmy.world etc. that are (relatively) neutral have access. It’s a shame because they had some good communities established.

Classic useless answer but nothing ATM 🙃. I’ve been travelling for a few months and won’t be able to host anything til I get home mid July. However, I do have plans to host a website or two, maybe even a Bookwyrm, Lemmy or Mastodon instance.

What servers do you want defederating from?
