An example of an opinion that would get censored on some Lemmy instances:
China’s authoritarian government is unethical and worse than America, even under Trump
An example of an opinion that would get censored on some mainstream platforms:
Luigi was right, we should kill billionaires
Both should be allowed
Why do people assume time and space didn’t exist outside our universe? Maybe it did, maybe it doesn’t. We can’t know. But that’s not the same as ‘there was definitely no time before the big bang, or space outside our observable universe’
I agree with you, it’s sad to see how people are so happy to censor opinions they disagree with when they’re in power, while ignoring that if their opinions get censored when they’re not in power they (rightfully) get miffed. Free speech should apply to everyone so people can decide for themselves what they believe and they can challenge authority.
She had a husband when she was 18?
I agree with the first part, but I absolutely do not want to give my biometric data to the government. They clearly already have a way of assigning everyone a number for the National Insurance Number, so just use that

I don’t follow some laws, mainly copyright related ones as it goes against my personal morals and there is no punishment.
If a law is immoral and there is punishment, I would conform out of fear, but want to protest it.
If a law is moral, then great!
I’m not so conceited as to imagine I haven’t internalised any external morals from authority, majority, or religion, but whenever I actually consciously reflect on my morals, the only one that seems to matter is what I think is moral, not what others do.
It would be interesting to talk to Decartes, but I don’t speak Français, so it would have to be… idk… Nick Bostrom would be interesting
I block every instance with ‘porn’ in the name
Better for what? lemm.ee has had less controversies and is federated with more instances
I have read Asimov, but I didn’t think it was what inspired the question. If it had to be any SciFi novel, it’s more likely to be Singularity Sky
You can browse it from Voyager with an account on another instance
Windows 10 wasn’t even on my list as it is not a modern OS any more (it has been replaced by Windows 11), but even so it had a better UI, without those weird UI features that just serve to look bad
And of course windows 11 and GNOME improve with even more UI features
Basically, it’s not one specific thing that makes KDE look bad, but rather their general approach to design, which seems to be ‘we don’t care what we’re doing, we’ll just set the default to something random as we expect users to customise it anyway’ which is fine for advanced users, but not so friendly to new users
It might be GNOME or it might be Windows 11 (although of the Linux ones it’s still GNOME), but KDE is clearly (subjectively) the most ‘programmer art’ of the 3
Maybe unintuitive is the wrong word, but for new users the amount of options can be overwhelming, and the UI looks… not very modern by default, lol
It’s original to me!
It’s a big abstract to understand, are you trying to say that there are Linux enthusiasts that protest GUIs being made simple and intuitive, and that if they succeed, would-be Linux users will go back to Windows, which is more intuitive?
Maybe for KDE, but just introduce new users to GNOME, that’s perfectly intuitive and even looks great!
Active communities for niche topics, like His Dark Materials, or Would You Rather, and the poll feature, which I used extensively. Yes, I know you can link to external platforms, but integrating it into the post was much nicer.
