I strongly disagree with this decision – as lemmy progresses and stabilizes, open registrations will become normal and just blocking open instances will not be a viable solution.

I can’t say if this is just a need for better mod tooling or a fundamental problem with federation, but it’s certainly concerning.

Some already, and I’m willing a to bet a lot of the 2-dayers will continue.

I’m still sticking with google. I check duckduckgo occasionally but always find it to be subpar.

I’m not sure who I trust less to run a social platform – muskrat or bookface.
