I just mount a tablet in front of my radio and ignore all of the infotainment ‘features’. It’s just a bluetooth audio device.

Same thing with smartTVs, just ignore all of the ‘features’ trying to lure you into the data harvesting ecosystem and treat it as a dumb monitor.

Most of the time I just copy/paste the terminal output and say ‘it didn’t work’ and it’ll come back with ‘I’m sorry, I meant [new command]’.

It isn’t something that I’d trust to run unattended terminal commands (yet) but it is very good when you’re just like ‘Hey, I want to try to install pihole today, how do I install and configure it’, or ‘Here’s my IP Tables entry, why can’t I connect to this service’ … ‘Ok give me the commands to update the entry to do whatever it was you just said’.

Chatgpt is a camp for just YOLOing off into some new software. Unless it is after the knowledge cutoff it’s pretty accurate about configurations and such. It makes mistakes but it’ll get you started a lost faster.

It supports YouTube playlists also, so you can just give it a massive playlist and let it go

It would ruin the Fediverse because, if this post is any indication, it takes nothing but a user shouting ‘Nazi!’ to get people ready to accept de-federation. Most users who are commenting appear to not have looked into the issue or viewed the community before giving their opinion. They’re more than willing to buy the ‘Nazi bad, de-federate’ argument with zero evidence.

If you look into the community that the OP is referring to… it is made up of a single user’s posts and less than 30 comments across the entire community (most by the same user). None of the posts or comments in that community/by that user violates any rules on sh.itjust.works or kbin.

There is no there there, as they say. This is a ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’ tale. There’s no wolf, there’s no Nazi bar. One user created, one community and now we have a 200+ comment thread discussing de-federation. I cannot find any other word to describe the situation other than: kneejerk.

I never knew that community existed since I don’t read All (too spammy) nor do I search for alt-right topics. No idea how OP found it unless they were simply looking for shit to stir up.

Defederation should be a last resort against spammers and outright attacks on other instances, not because you dont agree with a single community.

100% agree

Also, it should be noted that this ‘The_Donald’ community is literally just one user making posts.

Well said @catshit_dogfart@lemmy.ml.

This is a single user, not the ghost of The_Donald subreddit, who appears to be trolling. If that’s the accepted bar for de-federation then lemmy.ml is going to quickly become a single instance federation.

It is easy now with defederation.

De-federation isn’t the tool to solve this specific problem. That community has 34 posts, all by a single user, and under 30 total comments across all threads. I cannot find a single post or comment in that community that would violate any rules on lemmy.ml.

A single user posting content in a community that shares a name with a banned community on another social media platform seems like a very very low bar to push for de-federation.
