@krzschlss @alternativenation Can’t say I understand downvoting music posts. What’s the point? Ignore and move on.

Imo, downvoting in this community should be reserved for bad faith users, gatekeepers, assholes, or dicky comments.

But you liking a band or song that I don’t get into? That’s just music.

@dylanTheDeveloper In hindsight, getting a country domain as your main was not a biggest brain idea.

@RxBrad same, but there’s generally sim communities on other instances too. It will suck if lemmy.ml gets yanked. But given they haven’t yet, they best be prepping to move ASAP.

@SeeJayEmm I hope so, that’s a big miss on Lemmy right now.

Need to be able to migrate accounts & communities ASAP.

@Aurix tell that to google & facebook in China. ;)

@azalty it was free.

@freamon Agreed, it’s a silver lining post, for sure.

But generally I find people say “you see, this is why the Fediverse/Lemmy/Mastodon etc will never take off” for every blip of bad news or whatever. But in reality, while the news sucks for .ml servers, it highlights the resiliency of the Fediverse - which is a win.

And better to happen in the early days of Lemmy than when/if it got much bigger.

@Chozo @fediverse disagree. It’s another argument for decentralization that 1 entity taking down another entity doesn’t take down the whole system.

If the US seized Reddit.com today, the whole site would just be gone. Poof!

The US could seize 1000 servers today and yet the Fediverse would continue on.

@freamon can you imagine if Lemmy (in total) was just *poof* grabbed by a government?

The fediverse lives to ride another day.

@WhoRoger yeah, apparently the company managing the domain, their 10 year contract is up and Mali decided not to renew and brought it in house. https://domainincite.com/28897-freenom-is-losing-another-cctld-after-collecting-military-emails

@nekothegamer @alternativenation agreed!

@draneceusrex awwww!

@Tom @ren this is lovely by the way.

@Tom @ren no, never heard of them! gotta get you on Alternative Nation to share some great tracks! ;)

@Tom @ren so good <3

@HarkMahlberg @alternativenation not big on xmas, personally, but that’s wonderful that something hits so good for you!

@Tom @ren 100%

Even when he pivoted to some electronic music, like with I Walked, it still felt fragile https://youtu.be/25OC3m5QdYY

@Psychlops sweet, tender, thoughtful music. <3

@GreatLake_Tadpole wonderful movie!

@MargotRobbie Oh. It’s not all good. You are absolutely right, it’s all so thoroughly fucked!
