    What are they gonna do? Start fining the owners of the instances……

    Decentralised doesn’t mean “no one in charge” - it means lots of people in charge of lots of parts. The fediverse would be the easiest social media network to bend to the governments will because it’s not billion dollar companies running it, and just the threat of fines or a lawsuit will make any instance owner shit their pants.

      Not if the instance isn’t subject to their jurisdiction.

          no, I forgot all about you. but piefed warns users about shitty people. everywhere you go, no matter the instance, you carry a big warning next to your name that you can’t see and can never escape.

                Alternatively, you can use an app like Voyager which has a getting feature.

                It’s easy knowing not to bother engaging with someone who has “Asshole” next to their name in red.

                  yes, voyager is quite good. although it should be noted that the user warning and user notes are two separate features on piefed, so even if you haven’t added a note to a user, piefed will still warn you that they have a bad reputation.

            Thanks for letting me know this - I was reading about piefed and considering signing up to give it a go. Now that I know it’s an echo chamber ultra pro censorship thing I’ll avoid it like the plague it is :)

            SHIT I need that, just looked through post history and he’s got a lot of ‘my body my choice’ answers to vaccines too.

            Well, one more blocked knucklehead

              By “a lot” you literally mean one when responding to someone trying to “gotcha” me yesterday hahaha.

              Quick questions - do you think vaccines should be mandatory? What should the punishment be for not getting them? Which ones are mandatory?

              What other things with your body does the government get control of? Should the government be able to mandate abortions if, say, you already have 1 child and they want to implement a 1 child only policy?

                  I absolutely think you’re fragile enough to care, because if you didn’t you would have just ignored my comment and moved on because it didn’t matter.

                    Nah, in fact I sleep better at night knowing those people are angry just knowing that I exist :)

                    Hilarious you calling anyone else fragile though haha. You’ve done nothing but show how you can’t stand people not agreeing with you, actively trying to tell others people proactively to block me. If that doesn’t scream fragile then I don’t know what does :)

                    Fragile people get upset and cry for censorship when they come up against people with different opinions. Strong people have no issue debating and conversing with people with differing opinions. You’re the former, I’m the latter.
