You're right and have shifted my perspective a bit.

I was thinking this seems a bit extreme, not because it's an overreaction but because banning the user removes that problem while preserving more content from the rest of the instance. But the goal of the instance prioritizes the safe space nature over volume of content, and they're not ambiguous about that. It's not what I'd do myself, but that's probably part of why it isn't my instance.

If you want to get pedantic, you have to figure out how to be accurate. Breaking a sentence into bullet points doesn't make it separate claims. The word "and" means that for the sentence to be true, all of the components must be. You made one claim, with multiple aspects and evidence that does not support 2/3 of them at all.

I think the other user had it right, so I'm going to steal this one: stay ignorant friendo

This is what happens when you google something to support your made-up fact, rather than base your argument on the research.

Your claim was that this applies to most, but not all trans women. Your link provides literally zero support of that.

This bad faith, scientifically illiterate shit is why people are generally inclined to dismiss you as spewing ignorant bar talk and move on without trying to change your mind. Your stance wasn't set based on current, relevant research and therefore isn't likely to be changed by it.

Men have a significant advantage over women when it comes to strenght and speed and in most (but not all) cases this applies to trans women as well.

Nothing about your comments indicates a willingness to change your mind. However, your statement above is the first concrete statement of the thread, so it seems like the onus would fall on you to support the claim, rather than /u/astro_city@fedio.io to refute it. If you make factual claims without evidence, nobody's especially obligated to provide evidence to tell you that your made-up facts are wrong.

Okay, I updated my previous comment to "stupid or lazy" instead of just stupid so it more accurately applies your bunk assumption.

Assuming it's worth troubleshooting a broken just to interact with your salty comments calling people lazy because an email server isn't working is shitty and elitist, regardless of whether you want to hear that.

There's a lot of reasons to not use reddit, but the signup process is one of the first interactions users have with a site. Right now, reddit has a smoother experience than lemmy in that specific regard, and it's better to acknowledge than pretend otherwise.

I like how the bill defines "age verification process" but not "obscene device."

Seems like this this is "tobacco water pipe" instead of "bong" levels of trivial to circumvent by companies that suddenly sell an array of various sized tubular "back massagers" or realistic "artistic anatomic sculptures".

It's fine for memes, news, and politics...but it's still pretty lacking in a lot of the smaller and more unique content that made reddit worth visiting regularly.

As much as you're okay with it, there's plenty of people who would like to see federated services grow enough to be established mainstream alternatives. How much complaining has there been that Bluesky took off as as the trendy twitter alternative instead of Mastadon?

One could argue that proposing this bill has incited me to try IPTV now, before it becomes more risky to do so.

I don't see it as a defeatist attitude about their situation. It's more about how they heard lemmy is a viable alternative, so are checking it out. That first interaction is a test drive. If it's janky at all, it gives the impression that lemmy less smooth of an experience, so go back to the perceived superior site. Using the site that offers the smoother experience is what they're doing about their situation.
