The acting and the FX might be dated, but the series and the topics are not, the old series still has its value and it's worth a (re) watch.

It wasn't the greatest thing ever, but it was a gateway to a reboot, it was a nicely done nostalgia-fest and it did a lot of stuff right. Was the animation a bit cheap? Yes. Was the story a bit thin? Yes. Would I still watch it and buy the blue ray? Of course!

And it's still way better than a lot of stuff movie studios wanted to stuff down my throat in the past years.

Lately I see a lot of calls do have specific instances defederated for a particular subset of reasons:

  • Don't like their content
  • Dont like their political leaning
  • Dont like their free speech approach
  • General feeling of being offended
  • I want a safe space!
  • This instance if hurting vulnerable people

I personally find each and every one of these arguments invalid. Everybody has the right to live in an echo chamber, but mandating it for everyone else is something that goes a bit too far.

Has humanity really developed into a situation where words and thoughts are more hurtful than sticks and stones?

Controversial topic, feel free to discuss!

Voting is voting. Nobody was talking about fair, equal etc votes.

Right now the way votes are cast it imperfect and can be exploited by using sockpuppet accounts, but this can change at any time and switch to a polling service. Is that better? Well maybe, electronic voting is hard.

But as I said: Your issue is a non-issue, the inherent nature of the Fediverse makes it irrelevant, just switch instance, self-host... There's no exclusivity here. You're not the customer or the product here, you're a contributor and you can contribute from anywhere.

You see a problem where there is none: Don't like voting, find an anarchist lemmy instance. Don't like this either? Open your own. That's the beauty of the Fediverse, you're not prisoner of a centralised platform, the same service, the same information can get to you via any other instance.

Now let's have a good and narrow definition of corporate instance and we might agree on that.

Clownflair is the ultimate cancer. Google, Amazon and Facebook were not enough, Clownflair had come and enshittyfy even those sites not contaminated by the big players.

How about embrace and enshittyfy like Google Talk did with XMPP?

Done some weeks ago already. Reddit is increasingly suffering from what Doctorow calls enshittyfication and that led me to delete my account.
