I think the only system to believe in here is sensitivity to feelings and histories of others. If you don’t mind triggering literally millions of people whose families were hurt by soviets, it is your choice.
And wouldn’t you be against public display of swastikas if they are displayed by “neopagans” and supposedly symbolize Sun?
Meaning is also contextual - different cultures put different meaning in symbols. To represent global ideas we need some consensus.
Baltic neo-pagans were rigtfully culturally suppressed from using swastika as “symbol of Sun”. Hammer and sickle also signifies millions of deaths and decades of repressioms. It is even forbidden in some post soviet countries along with swastika. Lets find something less damaging to represent marxist ideas.
Oh no.
Who designs and modifies the chains? Any democracy there? No, not even NGOs, just for-profit tech bros. You can only use their chains by their rules.
Blockchain looks “decentralised” only at user level. Differently from international DNS, which is much more decentralised in control structure, and provides your own freedom in any technology. Blockchains operate under DNS, so they do not remove their constraints, but only add a layer of control of their own.
@lemmyreader @schmorpel I’m using Yunohost for several years now. It is very comfy for a non-programmer to maintain. Also quite stable, except a few weird failures to restore backups. The biggest downsize is that app packaging needs to be maintained by someone. You get updates only when a packager brings you that update. For example, Discourse package is abandoned and now is so outdated that almost unusable.
