I do have quite a laundry list of remarks for Lemmy too. The bugginess and lack of features is understandable. But it is quite centralized and I see a future where it will be more centralized the more users will join due to a bit of a fundemental flaw of federation.

Maybe these problems will be fixable. I hope so, because I think it is a really cool concept. But I am not sure if I agree with the execution of it. I would love to contribute to this project if these problems are fixable.

I don’t make the rules 🤷 Maybe easier to prove? The media just doesn’t like getting sued.

The article does say:

The man was reported to have sexually assaulted one of the women

They can’t say it is sexual assault, until the person has been declared guilty in court. So they put it in quotes to indicate that is has been alleged by someone else

I setup my own email server, it was an absolute pain to setup, especially since I had no idea about all the little details of sending and receiving email. It was kind of fun to see everything come together

In the beginning I had a ton of email go into spam boxes, especially with gmail. Later I found out that if you don’t add the proper email headers like to: "Name Of Recipient" <email@example.com> it goes straight to the spam folder. (So you always need to provide a name)

I am afraid to touch anything now though, as it is currently very really stable (on a vpn btw)
