Well because they are a team, who make the ENTIRE PROGRAM that all the lemmies work on. They are not "just" working for .ml, heck .ml only exists as the last step in the dev process.
Second the "point" of communism is a classless stateless society, wherein the means of production are owned in common by all workers. If you would like to learn more about communism I can get you resource, if you would instead like to use your ignorance as a poorly formed insult, then by all means be my guest, just know that it makes you look ignorant, and like you are unwilling to learn anything.
I am say developers salary, because THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE, they are quite literaly the developers of the whole LEMMY PROJECT, they are the only ones working full time and they do BY FAR the bulk of the of the work.
I am saying the what is defined as going to .ml is slowly being moved, from direct suport cost, well they fixed that issue, to now it being because they are the admin, that is not to say that the second is new nor that I am saying that everyone is switching, I am merely commenting how when that problem was fixed a large number of people moved to the second. Look if you dont want to donate, or are unable to donate fine. Where I am confused, or frustrated is the meaningless distictions being made or the flag in the sand.
Yes I am reading all the threads, why because i have found it the most interesting way to learn about each instance, and I am nosey. However each instance had it posted by their own admin team, and by "insulting difrent users" I mean, sure I have probably done that, but that has not been the primary intent, nor is my intent to get them to pay for the administration of .ml I am saying that .ml plays a part in the dev cycle, so that there is one last review before it goes out, and I find the hand wringing annoying, because they are as the devs of the project asking to be able to live off their labor, the labor that allows your beloved (and in my opinion most toxic instance) .world to function. I am asking for a more proper fraiming of the issue.

This is for them, as the only 2 devs who are full time, to be able to survive contenuing to make lemmy. If you are so agreved they run an instance to use as their public beta, then by all means, but dont act like they are trying to pull the wool over anyones eyes here. First the complaint was hosting, now its the fact that they are asking to be able to survive doing the work, what maintancing code would be. Just say you dont want to donate stop moving the goal posts or acting like something is afoot

I have seen this excuse sky rocket after you made the distinction of open collective. I find it fastenating how when you answered there criticism they suddenly decide that if you or Des are involved in any way, they cannot suport it.

Look they only made that statment because every comment threat was that they would only donate if there was a way that it went to the developers and not lemmy.ml, and they got feedback that making a distiction would get people to donate. They are quite clear that this is so they can get a wage they need to survive, and for the record that is mentioned, at the top of the post, that they need to a little more than double donations in order to pay themselves an amount to keep working on this.

I am only summerizing what I got from the thread that I read. I did not produce evidence, I merely looked at what was posted. From what was posted incluiding your link it seems much more likely that you posted something pro IDF. Now if I am wrong, I am more than happy to admit that, as I have not gone through the mod log to look, however I wanted to make sure I understood your last argument correctly.

.world is the worst of the large activity groups, and it is worse because they are big enough they can start to manufacture concent that everyone else is bad, and then scare people off from the other instances. They to me feel like a group of people who are only mad at reddit because reddit hurt them, but have no issue with the fraimwork that made reddit reddit, and so are creating a distilled version of reddit.

so your argument is, and I want to ge this clear as an outside observer is, when screenshots of what you said are brought up "I did not say that its all the evil Commies who are lieing" dispite the plain text showing that what you are saying is the one that does not proport with reality?
Lemmy needs more donations
You do realise that it was each instance admin that posted outside of .ml They only posted once. I feel like this is obvious, but posting once and having others cross post is not spamming

Careful, someone might see that and say that your observation does not mater because your from .ml

When I mentioned that to me .world has been the second most toxic instence I interact with, and the mos toxic one has more or less died off. I got told it is obvious I would think that, I assume because of my .ml status or because I am a communist. But this toxcisity comes even when I do not mention any of my political beliefs. I am not saying I do not think the .world project is not worth while, however those in glass houses should not be throwing stones.
Heck .World Beehaw where the ones to start pushing that .ml is a Communist instance and not a general purpos one, before they hit the scene, .ml was seen as a general purpous, though with a lean to anti-impearalism, and anti-capitalism, beehaw never had the clout to send the hate mobs out, but .world does.

I just wanted to inform you that there is a revoition, and its leader is a dog, I thought you would like to know.
Also I would like to point you you have missed a few emergencies, like a tornado tore the roof off.
Tesla, $TSLA, Board of Directors have just reportedly opened a search for a CEO to succeed Elon Musk
Don't sell yourself short with those qualifications you deserve atleast a mil
and I am asking what the hell is a law, more than words on paper we all agree to follow, If the stakes where as dire as was being said, why the hell did we stay following them, the choices where simple, use your right to direct state electors to under no circomstance cast a vote for said individual, or to contenue to follow your interpritation, the plain text of the document you say you care for and say you have an oath to. Laws do not have mystical power to force someone to follow. At the war crime trials "I was just following the law/orders" will not be a defence. Chose your side and stick to it
Please explain to me why then the states did not just ignore Scotus, or use there constitutinaly, scotus garenteed rights to determine who the state electors vote for, and order that they could not vote for trump, a thing that is allowable without saying no to the court.
and before you say that a state cannot just ignore the supreme court, need I remind you that right now the president is, and we have had it done by county clerks refusing marage licences before.
I am the Pyrax, I speak for the fires, the fire says your welcome, and thank you for the tacos it helped clean the taste out.
I would disagree, I read that this is mostly them being tired with the questions on the policy. While I agree that some of the questions are rediculous, and sympethize with the need to keep students off their phones or other devices, an all out ban removes the ability to instruct students on how to use it, as well as the regulation is really shottily crafted as we can see from one of the questions helpfully listing it in its full text.
"Any non-HCPSS device that may be used to send or receive data via voice, video or text. This includes, but is not limited to, mobile phones, e-readers, tablets, personal computers, wearable technology, video recorders or other devices equipped with microphones, speakers and/or cameras" Let me start out by saying this is utter horse shit as a regulation, while it starts out fine, this only applies to devices we do not own, so loaned out computers are fine, the rest of this utterly falls appart.
First we have the ban classification, any device that may be used to send or receive data via voice, video, or text. This I can work with, so personal laptops are catagoircaly banned no questions asked, carrier pigeons are not as they are not devices, E-Readers without internet capability are fine as they cannot send or receve, video recorders should be fine, agian assuming they are not internet or bluetooth capable (think old school film camera) because agian they cannot send or receve the data they are getting, Air fryer is good, a phone in a bunch of little parts is fine because its not working, ECT ECT.
However what we just have next in the "Includes but is not limited to" Section includes some items that are perfectly fine by the regulation written above, E-Readers, some are uable to send or reseve data unless plugged into a computer, and this say may be, and while that clause is super vauge, there is no reason to think that it would be linked to the school chrome book, "Video recorders" Also not always aplicable nor "other devices equiped with microphones, speakers and or cameras" This would include some old tape recorders or the point and shoot single use cameras, and while a speaker can be technicaly called "sending data via voice" if it has the range to be able to faithfully recreate voice, playing a sound is not what is normaly understood as "sending data" and without creating a deffintion section I am hesitent to grant them this as playing sound is outside of the normaly agreed apon usage of the term. This inlcudes section, does give me an idea of what they wanted to ban, however it is not compatable with what there statment is. I will grant that this probably has force, as it specificaly mentions that these devices are included in the ban, but they give me no real idea of what the previous secion is meaning, and with no deffintion section I really cannot be sure beyond normal usage of words.
Now to the fun part, Under this, most TI-Graphing calculators bought by the student (common practus in the US) would be banned as it is possible to get them to send and receve data via text, and while I have never done it myself I have heard it is not hard. While this may require first plugging it into a computer, as we see with the e-book example that is something they think the students are able and willing to do on the school computer, so a TI-calculator would be banned under this regulation unless provided by the school
Carrier pigeon, not banned under this, however it is probably banned under some please dont bring pets to school provision. That being said, if it is an animal that cannot without just cause be removed, a service dog ect, then they would be in a grey zone on if they can send messages as they are not a device. That being said they could be removed for exceeding the bounds of the animal and causing a disruption. I am not a lawer, I do not deal with ADA issues regularly, I just have a job that deals alot with regulations.
Air Frier,probably fine. Personal Lap top dispite what the admin has repetedly said is not allowed, it is even mentioned in the policy.
the admin says teachers will not be hunting, however there is no way to enforce this.
TLDR the admin is probably supportive of the intent behind the policy, however the students trolling because they do not like it, and the terrible nature of the policy would leave it hard to defend and anyone tired at the end of the day
Snakes
I would like to point out the "generaly" here, I still would trust it more as a what is DEFINITLY venomous, not what is safe
And Hitler killed Hitler, I see no one lining up to give him a medal because we understand what fucking context is.
also interesting that you are comparing Triage to Eugenics,
Other than the first one none of those are communist. As for left there is nothing more left than communist, it can be argued, and I would be one that unless you are willing to give the workers the means of production, you cannot be left.
