I think they just forgot the word “detained”. It seems to make perfect sense once you add it

Hey, happy lemmy anniversary, I’m glad you’re here!

Yeah as much as politics are really important, especially for folks living in the US right now, it’s easy for it to become like 75% of all traffic you see and it’s a bit suffocating.

Political views and frustration are something lots of lemmites have in common, but it’s not healthy to stew in it 24/7 while it drowns out all other more niche communities. There’s gotta be some way of finding ballance between being informed and political solidarity, and having healthy social engagements that aren’t about how broken and cruel the world is

I think clear identity (I like the idea of a mission statement that someone mentioned), and a statement of the governance model of the instance would be really cool to see normalized

Erin Kissane has done a lot of fediverse research and found governance was really vital to people’s experiences, good or bad, but it’s difficult to asses from the outside until you have a problem and it’s either handled well or poorly.

Lmao, that’s such a goofy idea, I kinda love it

Yeah, I agree. A lot of people bought them because they thought it was a good electric car, and cars are a fucking lot of money. Just because you can afford a Tesla doesn’t mean you can afford to just replace your car that has now depreciated massively in value.
