      It’s intentional afaik, this move is primarily motivated by spite. “Oh, you’re banning the Singaporean app for being hostile state media? Ok we’ll go to actual hostile state media then”

            Idk man, I’ve had to switch instances once or twice, but i stick around each time mostly because I don’t have to constantly spin up alts to evade bans and continue spreading paid propaganda. And don’t immediately start dumping very suspicious comments immediately after making an account.

                Repeat any of the terms I mentioned that will get you banned and monitored, or worse, in china.

                Please I just want you to type them out so you can prove me absolutely wrong.

                Just say her name.

        it’s very early days for loops and as far as i’ve seen there’s no option to host your own instance (though they say it will be open source, it is not right now). https://loops.video/help-center/frequently-asked-questions

        Yep made by same guy as pixelfed, the federated instagram alternative https://pixelfed.org/ https://pixelfed.org/mobile-apps

        Loops has iPhone app in beta on TestFlight and supposedly one on GitHub for Android

        There’s a Lemmy app called photon Or something that’s integrating loops

          It’s also a gray area because loops doesn’t federate yet, but it probably will someday

Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
