You must be having a wildly different experience than me then, because I don’t even understand how you can make that claim

That’s the opposite of my experience. Jellyfin just works and immediately exposes the content we’re looking for, plex tries overloading you with bullshit and burying your actual content

Try reading what I said

AOSP makes a lot more sense to me. We just need to adopt Graphene or Lineage en masse and start contributing to support more devices, grow that out into a real alternative with support for the already existing android app ecosystem, and real alternatives to Google Play services

Thanks for taking the time to break it down.

I agree that he isn’t acting in good faith, but silencing the discussion is (would be) the bigger issue to me than some silly troll.

I really appreciate your response and reasoning. I don’t have an issue with logistical moderation (e.g. duplicate threads) but I’m extremely adverse to moderation of actual topics for what should be obvious reasons.

Given that you left the other thread up, I think I can put away the pitchfork for now. I’ll have a look at your rules, and hopefully find myself satisfied and participating in your community.

You’re going to lose what appears to be your only defender if you maintain that bullshit rhetoric.

Don’t care. I don’t care about your sealioning either.

It is my view that some things should be dealt with through downvotes and discussion, not moderation. Especially when we are talking about authoritarianism of all fucking things.

Moderation in my view is an extreme measure that shouldn’t be enacted lightly. And I only want to participate in communities that share that view.

Yes. I disagree with their rules and their enforcement of them, and this exposed that. So I wont participate in it.

What else would you have me do in that scenario?

It’s not like I pour over each community’s rules before reading any content that surfaces from them.

Yep, that’s part of my point.

I’ve already blocked the community over this. Know any alternatives?

We used to say the same thing about the internet as a whole, and then the big tech companies crowded out all the smaller options, started controlling narratives and we ended up where we are at now.

I don’t want to see the same thing happen with Lemmy instances. We are on the ground floor.

It starts with us.

I came here to get away from censorship, not join it. We need places for open discussion but I’m starting to see that this isn’t it either.

This was an opportunity to actually have a discussion about the topic and reinforce virtues of freedom, but it is doing the opposite and illustrating the descent to authoritarianism.

Using authoritarianism to silence the question is not the win you seem to think it is. This shit is gross

Shockingly good news from a media corp. Paramount would just steal your discs and tell you to pound sand
