The Fediverse Isn’t the Future. It’s the Present We’ve Been Denied.

www.joanwestenberg.com The Fediverse Isn’t the Future. It’s the Present We’ve Been Denied.

For years, the internet has been shrinking. Not in size, not in data, but in ownership. A vast, decentralized network of personal blogs, forums, and independent communities has been corralled into a handful of paved prison yards controlled by a few massive corporations. Every post, every “friend,” e...

Or even read whatever it is
feh...
- I could read it without logging in. Only tried on Android Fennec
  
  I could read as well
  
  @saplacat
  Mastodon v4.3.4, Firefox 136.0 (64-bit) browser tab on Ubuntu desktop
  This is so typical of #Lemmy posts I've already filtered them out
  Why should I click through on something I won't be able to read?
  
  Not sure what you're talking about, never experienced that in Lemmy links. I'll check this one later when I'm on PC
  
  @saplacat
  It does exactly the same thing when I click through on your profile link from Mastodon and click the top-most link under your profile
  Y'all got sold a bill of goods and seem to be stuck in your own little Walled Garden

  If you want to use the lemmy webapp you're showing in your screen shot, yes, you should register on lemmy. But you can definitely interact with lemmy posts without loggin o creating a lemmy account, as you're doing right now.
  
  The interface is reddit-like, you must click the small image to view it properly. Not being logged in has nothing to do with it.
  
  @AlbigensianGhoul
  If a #Lemmy post has to come with instructions for me to read it properly, not interested
  Hard pass on that
  
  Unless you have investigated a problem, you will be deprived of the right to speak on it. Isn't that too harsh? Not in the least. When you have not probed into a problem, into the present facts and its past history, and know nothing of its essentials, whatever you say about it will undoubtedly be nonsense. Talking nonsense solves no problems, as everyone knows, so why is it unjust to deprive you of the right to speak?
  
  Which link exactly are you trying to open? I think this is on your side but it's hard to make out what you're actually trying or which links you are referring to.

  "I think this is on your side but it’s hard to make out what you’re actually trying or which links you are referring to."
  This is exactly my point
  I'm clicking on the links you're posting as they appear on Mastodon
  I'm on Mastodon v4.3.4 which is the latest version
  Why do I have to be logged in to some Lemmy instance to get Lemmy posts to operate with any kind of sanity?
  I don't
  
  Since I still don't know which link you are talking about I don't know. Lemmy Posts including this one are visible without logging though, hence my question which link you're trying.
  (I'm not posting any links right now so I wonder what's appearing on mastodon)
