Federation has a lot of benefits, like being able to follow communities off-site or DM users on any AP server like mastodon from lemmy.

old.reddit doesn't seem optimized for mobile, and is certainly going to be killed off around the IPO.

New reddit blocks comment expansions, and doesn't let you see the thread at all if marked NSFW (which many benign discussions are).

Also, I don't want Reddit logging every click I make. Big lemmy instances don't put up a middle-man domain to hijack each click.

We actually don't know that.

Yes we do, hover over a link and it's the direct link.

Reddit has to redirect each link through the "out.reddit.com" domain because that's a necessary step to track each click.

Of course Reddit doesn’t federate — even if they were willing to do it, what benefit would it be for any other service to federate with it?

I'm not saying they have an incentive to do it, I'm pointing out the comparative advantage the largest lemmy instances has over it.

Reddit doesn’t force you to use its app — the website remains freely accessible.

Not true on mobile, you are forced onto the app other than a very limited preview.

It won't be long until Reddit kills old.reddit on the desktop too.

Reddit federates with no one.

Reddit forces you to use their app, lemmy.world let's you chose between many.

Reddit tracks outbound link clicks, lemmy.world does not.

Using the largest lemmy instances is still far and away better than using reddit.

There's already mods out that fix that.

A brand new microwave costs $80, you can find a used one for half that price.

Covering one extra shift at a minimum wage job will get you a microwave and some extra cash to spare.

Even the very poor should be able to get a microwave.

Building more apartments makes it easier for tenants to get a good price, because there are more providers. Supply and demand.

It also makes it easier to buy a single-family home if would-be competitors had the option to get the apartment downtown that they'd prefer.

Even people who have their own housing taken care of, and aren't looking for a new place would find they have a nicer life when they don't have to step around the homeless when they go out.

If this is an existential threat to writers then imagine how much of a threat AI language models are to people like GRRM who don't write.

"Enforcing it by enforcing it" isn't a meaningful statement, you're rephrasing the goal as if it were also the means.

What the other poster is probably saying is that enforcing these laws is done via some method. If the current method isn't working, what do you suggest changing?

I think circulating nude pictures of people is already illegal whether they are AI generated or not.

I thought so too, but it's not: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/law-jan-june02-scotus_04-16

They can't, there's already open source programs people can use at home.

That's just part one.
