Lemmy is turning into a left-wing echo chamber. The mods have declared that right-leaning opinions are not welcome and are defederating from any right-leaning instances. If you declare that half the population is not welcome, you’re really limiting your reach. It’s also going to be a pain to have two logins, one for lemmy.world and one for the free speech instances.
Every handheld made in the past few years plays GB/GBC/GBA at 100%.
No. It just leads to people gaming the system. I also think that counting upvotes but not downvotes is also a good idea, when ranking which posts show first. Too many people use downvote for “I disagree”, which means a true idea with less than 50% popularity gets buried.
This is a recourse. You start your own node and block the offending node. Aren’t there features that let you block individual users?
There’s a spreadsheet that lists the capabilities of the various devices. I don’t know where the S22 falls on the list. The devices use cheap chips that are available in bulk, so they generally will be less capable than a current top-end smartphone.

Simplest is Retroarch or Daijisho.
If you really want to get fancy, consider getting one of the cheap handhelds with build-in game controllers, like an Anbernic RG353 or Retroid Pocket.
Most incremental games are html that just runs in a browser. Only the ones that have multiplayer would have some sort of server code, and the developers usually don’t publish that.
Actually, the government did just call up Twitter and tell them to censor things. That’s the whole point of the Matt Taibbi Twitter Files stories. But you also have other non-government groups policing the Internet, calling up Twitter/Facebook/Google/etc and demanding censorship.

They’re probably smart enough to not get caught nowadays.
How do you know that there’s only one person working the account? When you’re a reddit moderator, it’s anonymous (same on Wikipedia). For all we know, all the power mods are working at a PR firm somewhere. Spreading misinformation could be their full-time job. Controlling the flow of information on Reddit and Wikipedia could be worth more than Reddit’s actual profit.
With lemmy, if someone is squatting a bunch of forums and moderating them, you can always start your own lemmy instance and start your own forum with the same title.
There’s nobody to sue. The CEO is dead. Oceangate is a bankrupt company with no assets.
Oceangate is broke with no assets. There’s nothing to sue.
No, they’re already dead. Most likely the sub cracked under the water pressure, instakilling them. Or they froze to death. Or they ran out of air; they have oxygen but no CO2 scrubber.
Those charities have huge overhead. Very little money goes to the actual cause.
I used a custom captcha for my personal WordPress blog. It eliminated all the spam. (Fun fact: The spammers know how to work around most anti-spam WordPress plugins. If you roll your own, they aren’t going to update their spambot for one blog.)
I also used a custom captcha at work. We couldn’t use 3rd party filters because it was marking our customers’ comments as spam! The custom captcha also eliminated all the spam.
There’s also a problem with using 3rd party spam services. You have to give them all your data. You also usually have to pay for it, which can be a problem when you’re working for people with a tiny budget.
Jimbo Wales from Wikipedia said “It takes 5 users to keep a website active”. For the foreign-language Wikipedia clones, the ones that had at least 5 users did well. The ones that didn’t have 5 users just died.
Is there a way to find out a site’s blocklist?
I solved this problem once. What you do is have a custom captcha that you code yourself. It can be as simple as “What is 2+3?” and have 10-20 questions that you rotate between. Most spammers will be too lazy to update their spambot.
Maybe the problem is that your definition of fascism is “anyone who disagrees with me”?
