I'm sorry I wasn't all that helpful. IIRC you need to find a post by someone on that community (or in that community?). Anyway, the name of the instance will be displayed on the card of that post and is clickable, which will bring you to the kbin page about the instance, where you can block it.

Except you don't have to be intolerant of Salafis. They can be Salafis or not for all I or anyone else cares, what matters is whether they hate people for who they are and spread or communicate that hate.

I'm personally not entirely sure about male to female trans athletes being allowed to compete in female-only leagues and am concerned about the wisdom of allowing sex change procedures for minors that weren't born intersex. I wouldn't marry a trans person and if a close family member suddenly came out as trans I might have long discussions with said family member for a while,

But that's it. I wouldn't even dream of hating someone for being trans or demonizing people who are. Even if I had religious beliefs against that kind of stuff it would at worst make me worry about such a person or make me pray for them.

If I were a moderator of a public space, I'd allow them to talk there without fear so long as they're not actively attacking others, same as any other group.

Likewise, you can believe that trans people are wrong and will go to whatever equivalent of hell your belief system has and I would tolerate you as long as you are civil about it, come from a position of compassion and empathy and don't try to force people to listen to you (like by using multiple accounts to circumvent blocks and/or bans) who have clearly communicated that they don't want to hear you anymore (same goes in the other direction, btw) and don't try to incite others to treat them as anything other than fellow human beings.

If someone from either side can't do that, that person lacks tolerance and in turn can expect the same level of tolerance being directed to them.

Comedians and similar people who make content out of stuff they see in the news seem to be especially prone to this kind of thinking. They see an article about a phyics discovery or a math theorem or a sociology experiment and say something about science should focus on solving world hunger or curing cancer instead.

Seemingly ignorant of the facts that
a) Science isn't a monolith, and a sociologist or mathematician isn't a virologist or oncologist or whatever else would be needed for the problem they're ranting about.
b) Even if someone happened to be in the correct field for the problem the idiot is ranting about, they often couldn't help with the problem anyway because they're lacking the required experience and knowledge and just throwing people at the problem doesn't help if those people are grad students or barely postgrads.

You can block the instance itself, you know. No need to hunt for the communities.

Uhm, you're talking about Swiss High German aka "(Schweizer) Schriftdeutsch". What I'm talking about is Swiss German aka "Schwiizerdüütsch".

As a kbin user, I'm really excited about Artemis.

How did they fuck it? I mean, I'm sure they employed some kind of enshittification, but what were the main things they did and what was it that made them breach the trust thermocline?

The issue there isn't that Reddit stores the edit history (that would be too much storage space), but that it doesn't apply the edit at all and just pretends to if it you recently edited something else. You need to wait after each edit for your next edit to go through.

I had success with this Power Delete Suite fork, which waits for 5 seconds after each edit.

In der christlichen Theologie gibt es die Ansicht, dass die Hölle nicht wörtlich ein Feuersee sei sondern "bloss" die Abwesenheit alles Guten in der Welt.

Dass Gott den Menschen während ihres Lebens die Wahl gibt, gut sein zu wollen und zu akzeptieren, dass das ohne Hilfe unmöglich ist und diese Hilfe anzunehmen, oder sie bis zum Tod abzulehnen und dass die Hölle schlicht unsere Welt sein werde aber ohne Liebe (und ohne Geburt und Tod, weil Seelen nicht zu existieren aufhören).

Einfach für alle Ewigkeit die selben Menschen die mit der Zeit immer egoistischer, bitterer, nachtragender und hasserfüllter werden, einander ausnutzen und betrügen, sich immer qualvoller rächen, etc. Vielleicht wirds irgendwann ein wörtlicher Feuersee wenn jemand die Erdkruste schmilzt.

Sadly not. It might not even be appealable.

I would claim actual free speech absolutists don't exist.

Im Gegensatz zu Reddit kann man hier Titel korrigieren. 😉
