I wish this was true but sadly it is not. Anti-choice candidates have continued to be elected and pass laws since June 2022.
yet they’re not open to being alerted to problem posts (implied by the “checkmate” sass)
This is not the case, not they say “report and move on”. Reporting is literally alerting them to the problem post.
They are legally obligated for some US citizens. California (~40 million people) has a law similar to GDPR.
They also don’t have a way to check where you live so you can do the request and select either option (GDPR or CCPA) and they will fulfill the request.
In case you didn’t know and for everyone else that prefers the old UI there is a clone for lemmy.
https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym
lemmy.world has it installed at https://old.lemmy.world. The creator has it running at https://mlmym.org/ for other instances that don’t have it installed.
I do and it’s already available at https://old.lemmy.world for anyone who prefers it.
Someone else mentioned old.lemmy.world if you like the old reddit UI. That one is closer to what I want personally.
But yeah, options is great. Just need a way to save a preference now so it will use my preferred UI when logged in. Either that or throw together a redirect plugin.
Unfortunately this is even worse than the default lemmy UI with even more wasted space on desktop. But hey, more options for people is always nice and hopefully some will like this.
