Good news is it's much harder to accidentally wipe/fragment all your files than it is to break your system

If anything is lost right now, you might be able to get it back just by booting from a live USB to explore your file system

According to the windows logo face guy, I suppose

I've been banned from Facebook for years and reddit has also repeatedly banned me. Among many other bans, those are the ones that have had the most impact on my life and made me committed to censorship-resistant internet tech. I also believe the more open source tech can resist censorship, the more corporate platforms might be pressured to offer freedom of speech / unbiased enforcement in order to compete

You have a lot of good points here.

One of the main problems with my suggestion is the privacy issue you mentioned. Even using Tor doesn't actually come with a promise of anonymity. That would stop me from running an instance myself, even if federation over Tor works.

Enjoying PieFed overall so far, will keep investigating how it works

This is half true at least. It's not just insane nonsense.

Good to see it's not far from possible at least. Thank you.

Wanted to try Aether but download links are broken. Still looking into the others. I've said on nostr before that nostr needs some kind of bridge to SSB

Interesting. I'm able to see my post from that instance, but the comments seem separate.

I have not tried most of your other suggestions. I think the only one of those I've tried is SSB. Will read more about the others

I don't see how this relates to free speech. The targets of bigotry don't have to do anything or go anywhere because bigots are allowed to talk. If the place has free speech, that means whether you give the place to people who hate you is also a choice.

Free speech doesn't mean free corporate executive positions. If your workplace will fire you for what you say, you don't have free speech there.

I think nuclear power will inevitably continue to go wrong (once in a while) as long as humans use it, and it could contribute to the extinction of the planet if overused, so I hope it only goes wrong in ways that result in people not using it where it's not needed, instead of ways that result in no life surviving human impact
