CCI has always been a lethargic and toothless body.
Given the foreign policy implications of this move in the Trump era, and the potential for economic fallout domestically, I am speculating that Apple will be allowed to prevail in this matter in the end.
I support the proposal to defederate.
Thank you admins for your efforts, and also for soliciting this feedback before taking the proposed action!

Not really Canadian, but it may or may not have some Canadian contributors on the team.

Both are free (gratis) and open-source, so I think it should be okay for me to comment about them here.
Back before 7cups went to shit I used to volunteer there as a listener, taking chats from peers about their mental health.
A few lines into the chat I'd often get asked if I'm human. "Barely", I'd think to myself, and then I'd reply with a simple "Yes".
Sometimes the person would go on to request that I chat with them as a friend, and not as a professional. Which, of course, I'd struggle to accommodate as much as possible while simultaneously trying to explain that that's just how I communicate 🫠
I posted a very similar question on here recently. I would have to say, for me, the biggest hurdle in finding a play partner would be just finding a group/scene where folks are somewhat likely to be open to dating. But of course as a demisexual this still excludes dating apps and other such scenarios more geared towards immediately quenching a thirst.
I like the general suggestion that was given on my post: Find fun things to do as a way of meeting people. It eases the pressure, and one is more likely to be open to connecting when already having fun 😀
Along similar lines, I must say how frustrating I find the fact that there are very few examples of narrative-driven, long-form pornography (like movies).
But I also realize that there is barely any market demand for something like that. eg. I don't often watch porn, and I almost never buy movies 🤷🏻
Very insightful! Thank you for this comment @msage@programming.dev
