Thanks!
Awesome, thanks! You’re a mod now 🪄

Yeah, IMO it’s a constitutional question. I’m coming at it from the EFF’s side:

We are deeply disappointed that the Court failed to require the strict First Amendment scrutiny required in a case like this, which would’ve led to the inescapable conclusion that the government’s desire to prevent potential future harm had to be rejected as infringing millions of Americans’ constitutionally protected free speech.

Shutting down a communications platform or forcing its reorganization based on concerns of foreign propaganda and anti-national manipulation is an eminently anti-democratic tactic, one that the US has previously condemned globally.

Web UI is coming soon. @[email protected] said this weekend, but maybe walked that back after Pixelfed saw huge growth and demanded a bunch of his time
I wish that were true. I know too many people IRL that believe that and are old enough that they should know better.

Loops is seeing a surge in activity with all the recent drama around other platforms. It’d be great to have other people contributing and/or modding here. Mod duties are pretty light (i.e. practically nonexistent), it’d just be nice to have extra hands in case I’m AFK.

Kagi’s pretty good and has a Fediverse search feature, but it’s paid. I don’t mind paying, but there’s also no way to do private searches that way, so I’m not going to use it as my main search engine. It’s been good at hunting down memes on Lemmy that I want to find again though.
