Plebbit is a selfhosted, opensource, nonprofit social media protocol, this project was created due to wanting to give control of communication and data back to the people.

Plebbit only hosts text. Images from google and other sites can be linked/embedded in posts. This fixes the issue of hosting any nefarious content.

it has no central server, database, HTTP endpoint or DNS - it is pure peer to peer. Unlike federated instances, which are regular websites that can get deplatformed at any time,

ENS domain are used to name communities.

Plebbit currently offers different UIs. Old reddit and new reddit, 4chan, and have a Blog. Plebbit intend to have an app, internet archive, wiki and twitter and Lemmy. Choice is important. The backend/communities are shared across clients.

The code is fully open source on

      Yeah I do.

      @grue@lemmy.world in !fuckcars@lemmy.world applies the rules to everyone but his friends.

      I had a hottake, https://lemmy.world/comment/14282775, yesterday. you might not be able to read it since he removed all my comments and banned me, so here it is.

      I’m all for protests, but please don’t block major roadways or interstates.

      emergency services use the same roads and your protest will kill someone. pile up on the sides of the road, throw paint balloons in the streets, throw your shit at cars passing by. I really don’t care.

      just keep the streets clear for emergency services.

      his buddies started to attack me after I gave them real world examples to back up my opinion. they were rude and condescending and I responded in kind.

      when I got back on all my responses were deleted for being “uncivil”. so I reported all their comments that were uncivil and condescending or mocking. waited like 3 or 4 hours. zero response. so I called him out on it, https://lemmy.world/comment/14291055

      since he removed that I’ll post it here too.

      hey f***face, if you’re going to apply the rules you better apply the rules for everyone equally, not everyone except your friends like @ReadMoreBooks@lemmy.zip or @leftytighty@slrpnk.net

      I know it was you that deleted my comments because you made this comment after you removed them for being “uncivil”.

      how’s this for uncivil, go back to Reddit you corrupt piece of shit.

      in case you didn’t realize it this is sarcasm.

      yeah, it broke rules, but my anger was justified. dude is clearly abusing his mod powers.

      all their “uncivil” and condescending retorts are all still there though. and here I am banned from the community because he got pissy that he got called out.

      I reached out to another mod on there but they haven’t been active since July.

      TBF this isn’t the only instance of “Reddit mod bigmad” I’ve experienced on here. the communities aren’t a problem, it’s the power-tripping mods from Reddit that got kicked out that will destroy Lemmy/fediverse.
