@allison it's be so much more "ITS OVER" than merely clearnet going offline. KF has had several existential moments. Prolonged downtime, tier-1 ISPs outright violating net neutrality, random entities upstream of ISPs, ISPs themselves, Cloudflare, etc. It has has survived and fully recovered it's userbase.
@crunklord420 Fully substituted the userbase, you mean. Most of the mid-2010s userbase disappeared after that one hack and now it's a bunch of screeching harpies and soyteen losers. (forgive the bluntness, I've definitely hit the bottle today)
@crunklord420 I'm more worried about salon. Transfer costs to nicenic were like three average monthly salaries in Guatemala, so we had to settle with epik, don't remember if it was before or after they stealthily changed ToS.
@mint we live in a SOCIETY where everything is against the rules but is only selectively enforced so people pretend like they're not constantly walking on a razors edge.
"Show me the man, and I'll show you the crime.", globohomo edition.
@kroner they probably will, this isn't the first time. I've yet to hear about a registrar who straight up steals domain without actual criminality/court order.
Though, on a long enough time line Josh is gonna become the Franz Ferdinand of the highest levels internet administration. Either because ICANN or one of the RIRs. The EFF is so cucked right now it's unreal. "Protect the stack" is utterly toothless without actual legal action. They EFF *must* bankroll Josh when it comes to that point, which it already should have with Hurricane Electric. They won't, though.
@NEETzsche@mint uhhh, no? approximate 80%-90% of the human population are bread and circus nigger cattle.
The mass immigration policy of globohomo is a perfect example. The nigger cattle loved it, they demanded it, defended it, attack anyone who said otherwise. Now they're all fucking going homeless because of the thing they demanded for. They still can hardly bring themselves to take a public stance against mass immigration. They pretend like they didn't demand the thing that is now destroying them. It never made sense, it was never well justified, it was always exploitative. It didn't matter, they didn't care, they just repeat what they're told like the NPCs they are.
Even if you take away THING, like TikTok, it will never really be taken away. It'll be censored, castrated and whatever, but they still get their daily habits fulfilled so who cares that it's compromised (imagine implying that TikTok as today is uncompromised, but relatively speaking, it may be).
I think Epik has gone through at least 3 major management transitions since then. It doesn't matter, Josh can't be picky and he had a special arrangement.
The ISP in question filed a net neutrality complaint with the state of Washington but HE just shrugged and said "naw we deny it, [insert sophistry]" and everyone else just collectively shrugged.
Nothing matters unless you can bank roll a ~$500k lawsuit.
@crunklord420 This is the conclusion I've been arriving at as well. Which leaves me with the question of how does one personally survive it? It's tough.
I'm going to go lift some weights. I've stacked the food rations and the ammunition. I've gone to church regularly and it's full of normies who don't get what's being done to them, as you say. I've worked multiple jobs to pay for a good life, although I stopped 2J in late May. I've tried to build up networks irl, to little avail.
Now... I just wait. And hope it works out. Tragic.
@PonyPanda@PurpCat@NEETzsche@mint yeah but tumblr forced out the porn. No globohomo corpo wants to touch porn because Apple will remove their app. Apple's app store content policy can dictate what is acceptable on globohomo controlled space.
@crunklord420@NEETzsche@mint all that happens if something is taken away or dies (see vine) is a replacement will pop up even if it takes years (TikTok) or the niggercattle will move to the next site (tumblrs audience moving to Twitter even if they want their Tumblr back).
Not one of them even made their own Tumblr or a federated Tumblr and if you bring this up the cope list is infinite. They just want a new feed lot to graze at.
@NEETzsche@crunklord420@mint at a certain point there's going to be a culling. There already kinda is with the trans shit and the kids of immigrants also falling victim to the same globohomo tricks.
All those "gay furries" and "trans girls" are genetic dead ends who are going to crash as hard as wine aunts, just place your bets on if they'll join Ronnie McNutt on or off camera.
@PurpCat Normies have an essentially supernatural ability to detect things that actually unshackles and reject those things on that basis. They like their chains. Even if it means their demise.
@PurpCat@crunklord420@NEETzsche@mint Yk the culling things is why systems with freedom work so well. Letting all the dumb people die really does work lol, but ofc people have to try to make us excuses as to why "NO OUR HEKKING PEOPLE".
@dcc@crunklord420@NEETzsche@mint the trans stuff really is a mass self culling. Just convince loser men who play anime porn games who couldn't get any and were even possibly jailhouse gay online that they're heckin cute trans girls as they die young and look like crack whores at best before they die.
Hence why it's called crack for the nerd community.
@dcc Active suppression efforts that don't amount to total extermination usually have an inverse effect than intended in one generation's. Only the best survive so next generation on average is more capable and resilient.
@PurpCat@dcc@NEETzsche@crunklord420@mint Troons like this can sneed all they want, but they are losing. I think the pendulum is swinging back to the side of actually edgy humour being normal. Maybe I'm coping but most of the young people I know laugh at offensive jokes and cringe culture.
@NEETzsche@PurpCat@crunklord420@mint Well thats more clear, and im going to yes and no you becuase they want to genocide is in fact culture. Their is a reason why mixed culture people (like in america) who really already have a culture (they dont like) are now describing them self as white or brown like its a culture (when its not). The reason is by keeping people culturally mixed it creates the perfect cattle.
@dcc I know and in addition to what you're saying, I'm telling you that half-hearted genocide efforts like what they're doing to whites (they're doing everything but industrialized mass murder) are accidental eugenics programs for their victims.
@PurpCat@NEETzsche@crunklord420@dcc@mint it's funny because trooniggas like probably love to consider themselves progressive and "anti-racist" but most of the ethnics (what they'd call POC) i'm friends with would call him a faggot and tell him to fuck off
@PurpCat@NEETzsche@crunklord420@dcc@mint Like I have personally seen from my social circles chinese, indian, black, and filipino teens hang out, call each other nigga and make racist jokes all day. I think the people that get offended the most are whites on behalf of ethnics (plus most of these troons are white).
