"We" aren't on Lemmy for any one uniform reason. We aren't even all on Lemmy, I'm on a kbin instance for example.
I, personally, understand how federation and ActivityPub operate and so I'm not surprised by this. I expected it, I accept it, it's just the way the world works. When I say something in public I lose control over who will hear it or how long it will last, and any laws that mandate I should have that control are just a placebo or illusion in the grand scheme of things.
I’m also not on Lenny—I’m reading this on Kbin—and just to make sure, I also looked this thread up on Mastodon as well.
Pixelfed found OP—but they don’t have any photo posts yet.
So…
fair enough. allow me to rephrase, whatever reason we're on the fediverse, it should be held to the same standard. for context, the initial commenter said something along the lines of "you don't have to be here"
