Makes sense. Sorry that happened to you. Hopefully Lemmy won't becomes like that (I mean as a whole, individual instance still can and have become like that).

Isn’t that the definition of off-grid?

Yeah, but not only. For example, I can build a private wifi network, and have my friends join their phones to it. Some bloke across the yard can open his own network, but the two networks will not communicate with each other. The two networks are off-grid, but are independent of each other.

This meshtastic thing sounds awesome! Crowd sourced off-grid network.

Recently? Because that would make sense. That's basically who's left on the platform.

How long ago was this? This sounds like actions that the past couple years worth of mods would take, but maybe I'm wrong.

You can get banned from reddit?? That doesn't bode well haha

Can it be used to set up a grid with other people? Kind of like creating put own off-grid grid?

Lemmy got like that after the exodus. No? I mean, I saw some BS here and there, but not nearly as much as right before the hexbear nonsense. Granted, I wasn't on here much, and using a now defunct username, but I still didn't see nearly as much.

I don't think I understand its purpose. It's a shared wireless communication network for text messages only? So, like, sms-only that is completely independent of the main grid?

Very true! Lemmy wasn't super like that, but then again, reddit allowed nearly anything (apparently including csam to a certain degree). Then the API debacle, and that crap came here. Yt is more strict on certain things, which pushes those scourges of society to these platforms that are in their early stages, giving them an abysmal reputation.

Mainly because scifi hasn't yet happened, but we see the signs of getting there; while the past may already be over, and we may not see the signs of it happening again now.

TIL Odysee had ads. UBO FTW

Edit; tbf, I haven't been on it in a long long while. Generally too extremist for me.

I mean, clearly a scifi, but I'm talking about the premise in the movie. It's not as farfetched as you may think. Some countries already operate under the premise.
