You probably want to start a charity, or a whatever the equivalent of a CIC is in your country.

I still think instances that are the least censorious are the best to recommend. At the end of the day you have no idea what communities someone will want to follow, so having access to everything is a plus.

Someone finding out a community they want to follow is blocked by their local BOFH because of some squabble is just going to make people go back to reddit, since it makes lemmy look no better.

It's unfortunate that awesome lemmy instances broke, since it was good for comparing how much of the lemmyverse an instance had access to.

Yes, I'm still using Joey just fine. A lot of the apps were disabled by their creators, although there's apparently revanced patches for some.

Reddit; Charging for the API essentially killing almost all 3rd party apps.

The secret is they made it easy to bypass, the API still works if you moderate any subreddit, even if it's one you just made. They made it just difficult enough to move the 99% of normie users to their own app.

You do make a good point.

Although the idea that the 80s is being taught in history classes makes me feel old.

I'm pretty sure the flag was the least of the problems here.

Headline is kind of clickbait

The bill also allows for the flying of a “historic version of a flag ... that is temporarily displayed for educational purposes,”

“There are instances where in classrooms, you have curriculum that is needed to use flags such as World War II, Civil War,” he said. “You may have a Nazi flag. You may have a Confederate flag, and so you are allowed to display those flags… as part of the curriculum, and that is okay.”

The law is still dumb for wanting to ban the pride flag.

That's exactly what they're for.

They aren't white like Ukrainians?

Honestly a decentralised craigslist would be great.
