Yea, except USB-C is an objectively better connector for both ends of the cable. And it’s not like using USB-A has been made illegal.
If any connector were to be made the standard, I think I’d generally prefer it to be the best one available, wouldn’t you?
But this doesn’t make any sense at all. Defederation is like… the main power afforded to us by creating a federated system. It’s practically the only way instances can actually make themselves unique because it’s the only power they have compared to their Reddit counterparts.
Defederation can’t possibly “not be normal” because otherwise the system of instances and joining your favorite one becomes a complete illusion.
Like imagine this. The Reddit admins set site wide rules and the Reddit moderators set rules for their subreddits. Each user must follow the site and sub rules or have their content removed or account suspended, in the case of a site rule violation. Now, the fediverse is different than that. People posting in a community in lemmy.world are only responsible for the rules of that community and for that instance. But their content also affects other instances who might have stricter rules.
And what are the admins to do about that? The one issue which faces federated sites that doesn’t affect Reddit and it just so happens to be solved by the single moderation tool which the fediverse gets which Reddit doesn’t.

It will use ActivityPub.
Doesn’t this mean I can interact with the entire ecosystem without ever touching their app (ie from Mastodon or any of them)? Or have I misunderstood the systems in place here?
Reddit as an entity is just frustrating. Not just the recent debacle, but the pattern of getting slightly more awful with each passing minute. I’m hoping I enjoy my stay here well enough that I never feel the urge to go back. Unfortunately, it’s less about what Reddit can do to get me back and more about what the Fediverse can do to keep me.
I liked seeing and engaging with unlimited new things with each passing moment. It would not be very satisfying for me to lose that. Time will tell.
Wow I always new I hated Calibri but looking at it up close REALLY made me hate it. I don’t know what it is about that font but I just can’t stand it.
