  • As a Canadian, please don’t come here (unless your reproductive rights/ bodily autonomy are under direct threat)

    Sometimes I feel hopeless with our political parties and economy up here and think about moving out of country and then I remember that as a citizen I have a duty and responsibility to remain a voice of reason in my community.

    As a US citizen you are afforded real rights that citizens in other countries do not have. For example: In Canada we don’t have rights, we have freedoms. Those freedoms can be suspended by the government at any time.

    Be the change. Fix your system. Help turn your nation into the example for the global west that it always aspired to.



  • That’s how aether works kind of.

    It’s P2P/decentralised rather than federated.

    Anyone can make a community. With enough participation in a community one can become a mod. Mods can be impeached by vote of active participants.

    Anyone can see nod actions and anyone can decide to disable the actions of any mod.

    I love the system, I was active there before moving to Lemmy. I wish it had taken off/absorbed some of the Reddit fallout rather than Lemmy.

    AFAIK it is not maintained or at least updated much less frequently than Lemmy/ActivityPub.
