That's an elaborate description of how to make them, without telling you what they are.

Nah. Can't be. Remember when you cut off his head?

I appreciate where you're coming from. But careful you don't replace Trumpist fascism with some other kind of authoritarianism. You want people who tell lies to face house imprisonment? Who decides what statements are lies? It's an easy power to abuse.

This is the issue.

Well, it's useful to have local communities, but I personally find it nice to still be able to join, read, and post from another instance without having to make another account. For instance, I'm subscribed to lemmy.world's "local" community, which is where I found out about old.lemmy.world and mlmym.org. Likewise, if I lived in a geographic locality like Seattle, I might want to join a Seattle community on a Seattle instance, but I'd still prefer to be able to do it using an account from another instance rather than being forced to make an account on the Seattle instance.

How's the no poop challenge community in the Fediverse? I find that mildly amusing.

Even though email is supposedly "open", and federated, is no longer is really the case. Big services like Gmail are suspicious of non-big-name servers, and often flag email coming from them as spam.

About a year ago I came across an article from a guy who'd been running his own email server since the 90s, and finally gave up. I couldn't find that article in my quick search, but I did find this:

"I run my own email server. It's no longer a good idea, because the anti-spam arms race makes delivery from small independent servers very difficult, even when you keep yourself off the block lists, so it's a continuous struggle. Would switch, but I have too many domains/addresses"
