is this seriously it? 26 people are supposed to know enough about the inner workings of all these departments to be able to fire staff?
there is not even an attempt to appear competent

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rule 1- No brigading.

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

[Removed by Reddit]
Been a minute since I've seen that. And that's actually one huge advantage of the Fediverse. There can't be a [Removed by Lemmy] because 'Lemmy' is a federation of servers with their own rules and regulations and aren't even all based in the USA. And if any server starts these shenanigans, you can just move to another.
Although I do wish that profiles and comment history could be preserved from one server to another. That's basically the last piece of the puzzle that would give the user a completely a completely free experience.

Something like an independent third party data bank that saves profile data? So your user data would be publicly accessible - any server can access it to populate your profile on that server - but nobody can update or delete it but you?
Shit, have we found an actual use case for blockchain?
Nope, that could still be done with a regular database. Blockchain has no practical use case.
I'm as anti crypto rugpull nft bullshit web 3.0 is gonna be uuuuge bro i swear bro where are you going bro as much as the next person buuuuut...cryptocurrency is a godsend in shithole countries such as mine where the local currency is a joke and and possession of any non local currency is illegal

Nah, There’s other ways to store data while preserving confidentiality, integrity and availability that isn’t on the blockchain. Besides A public ledger connected to a specific profile could make it easier for the profile to be doxxed/fingerprinted.
Spitballing here but a service using simple key-pairs might be a better way to do this.
• Users generate a key pair client-side.
• Public key is stored on the server, acting as the user’s identity.
• To update their profile, users sign the request with their private key. (Data is signed/verified client side before submission)
• The server verifies the signature using the stored public key before edits can be made.
Because data signature/verification are done client side theoretically you don’t need a ledger, your client can enforce profile state. (Maybe an HMAC is sent with the verified data and there reverted periodically by the client)
You guys are re-inventing self sovereign IDs
Just public key cryptography. All your actual posts and comment history are already shared. What is missing is a way to authenticate yourself to anyone but your home server. If the protocol included every profile having a public key, you could then use that to authenticate to any server. And managing that private key is no more complicated than managing your private key in a block chain context.
Non public info like subscriptions is a bit more complicated, because there is an actual policy question of who you share it with. You would either need to make it publicly available, keep a copy yourself, or have your home instance give it to you/the other server at the time you want to migrate.
Just allow people to bring their own IDs to servers. Self sovereign IDs, or SSI for short.
Blockchain has a usecase here, and it would be for disabling your ID in case of privkey leak, or for having people or entities strengthen or verify your pubkey or tie a hash of your birth certificate to it.
Blockchains are great for providing reliable immutable and verifiable timestamps of data. The reason they are safe is because a lot of people have tied actual value to it, and thus most don't want to invalidate the blockchain and destroy their value.
Lemmy added export data import data features I think. That’s plenty.
I’m not even sure on anonymous Internet forums what I would want to move.
Yeah it's nice to be able to import your list of subscriptions at least. But for comment history, I guess it depends what you're getting out of a place like this. On Reddit, I liked going back sometimes and seeing what I was posting a couple of years ago. Especially if it's personal shit, or even old review posts for movies or whatever. I like having a stable online presence or identity with a history to refer to.
It is interesting that Reddit took it upon themselves to remove it. They are government employees, those aren't their private addresses, but end with ".gov". This seems to be public data.
The addresses were originally obtained through a Freedom of Information request, so yes, 100% public information.
Yeah, it's not like it was a list of where they live
but it's fascism time; bootlickers gonna bootlick. gotta protect the fascists from judgment by the people. expect less and less transparency moving forward, all sorts of public information getting concealed, and both mainstream media and social media corporations helping them.

[Removed by Reddit]
Of course Steve Cuckman would be the first to try and cover this up.
Funny seeing Musk on this list after his "I'm just a consultant" bit.
Ok, so if the entire world turns into a dictatorship, with no free countries. Seriously, who will even want to live in it? How long until the population just de-pops itself?
We're already there?
I am 31 years old. A lot of my friends aren't chasing partners, yet those who do don't really want to make babies due to the long array of problems affecting quality of life.

Have you not noticed that tons of people are choosing not to have children now?

What people want will have little to do with it, unfortunately. The "hope" is that contraception bans combined with misleading/nonexistent sex ed will maintain a population.
After they destroyed any sense of community? Pushing individualism might be what has led to this

What's E. R. Musk's middle name? Racist? RæXXpt? Or some barely-pronounceable South African one?
Elon’s middle name Reeve is derived from his maternal great-grandmother Edith Reeve Angel, who is in turn a granddaughter of Elizabeth Reeve, of Totnes, Devon, England. A reeve was a form of medieval bailiff, who managed feudal lands, and as such was not usually a popular individual. source: https://forebears.io/news/meaning-of-elon-musks-name

Annnnnd I'll just save this photo.
Might as well spam a bit to panic any crawling bots by the numbers it's posted
I'm new around these parts. First post, here goes:
Yeah why not. I sure hope they have OCR enabled
What's OCR? Please elaborate. I could Google it, but a personal touch is always nice.

I got an Orwellian warning from those motherfuckers at Reddit that said I upvote too many posts that "glorify violence"(!?!?). I guess because I believe all Nazis can die?
I'm finally out for good. If they want a safe space for the loser racists at /r/conservative they can have it!
