@mkhl It makes me seriously sad how broadly accepted and tolerated this is.
Since it is #fathersday in germany today: do you know of any #feminist father role models? Be it fictional characters, or historical or present day activists or persons of public interest.
Today was #fathersday in germany - a day where a lot of men take a day to be what they feel is their true selves: Getting very drunk in (often exclusively male) groups, claiming the public space for themselves.
Framework 
We launched this quietly, but we now sell returned and refurbished memory and storage (securely erased) for ~50% off with 11th Gen and 12th Gen configurations. We're reducing waste at the same time as reducing the cost of entry to the Framework Laptop ecosystem.

Now at @The enforcement of copyright law is really simple.
If you were a kid who used Napster in the early 2000s to download the latest album by The Offspring or Destiny's Child, because you couldn't afford the CD, then you need to go to court! And potentially face criminal sanctions or punitive damages to the RIAA for each song you download, because you're an evil pirate! You wouldn't steal a car! Creators must be paid!
If you created educational videos on YouTube in the 2010s, and featured a video or audio clip, then even if it's fair use, and even if it's used to make a legitimate point, you're getting demonetised. That's assuming your videos don't disappear or get shadow banned or your account isn't shut entirely. Oh, and good luck finding your way through YouTube's convoluted DMCA process! All creators are equal in deserving pay, but some are more equal than others!
And if you're a corporation with a market capitalisation of US$1.5 trillion (Google/Alphabet) or US$2.3 billion (Microsoft), then you can freely use everyone's intellectual property to train your generative AI bots. Suddenly creators don't deserve to be paid a cent.
Apparently, an individual downloading a single file is like stealing a car. But a trillion-dollar corporation stealing every car is just good business.

@LinuxClaude I'm not worried so much about not seeing posts from other instances at all, but as far as I understood an instance can only show you posts that showed up in at least one users timeline on that instance. So if someone posts to a hashtag and nobody from my instance follows that person the post will not show up in my hashtag search. I'm basically worried that migrating to a smaller server will limit the number of posts I can discover.
