BBC statement on Glastonbury 2025
"Millions of people tuned in to enjoy Glastonbury this weekend across the BBC’s output but one performance within our livestreams included comments that were deeply offensive. The BBC respects freedom of expression but stands firmly against incitement to violence. The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable and have no place on our airwaves. We welcome Glastonbury’s condemnation of the performance.
"The performance was part of a live stream of the West Holts stage on BBC iPlayer. The judgment on Saturday to issue a warning on screen while streaming online was in line with our editorial guidelines. In addition, we took the decision not to make the performance available on demand. The team were dealing with a live situation but with hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen.
“In light of this weekend, we will look at our guidance around live events so we can be sure teams are clear on when it is acceptable to keep output on air.”

It just screams trustworthy.

I don’t see how that follows, like the joke is the dad buying his daughter a taser because the other guy is being a creep, but that’s your prerogative.

I’ll even concede that’s it’s not the worst song I’ve heard, but I just hate it.
No, this is a meme community and feddit.uk is a UK focused instance. I don’t know why a bunch of MRAs are going off in the comments about domestic abuse, it doesn’t even seem that related to the image posted.

Also, your response to someone concerned about CSAM being posted was to say ‘I’m sick of people using “think of the kids” to justify strong moderation’ (paraphrasing), so you don’t seem like someone worth taking seriously.

Still, I doubt the backing of a low level contributor to the project will mean this proposal goes anywhere, especially the idea of replacing X11 outright when downstream packages like KDE (ironic) have indicated they won’t support it.

I think it focuses too much on piggybacking off bsky content to be useful though, like forums and microblogs are different paradigms and a different UI isn’t going to change that.

Honestly, less than 3K independent PDS is genuinely insane. That’s about 14,000 users per PDS provider. For comparison, if Lemmy had that same kind of concentration, there’d be 3-4 instances. PDS providers are also piss easy to host.

Of course he is. God I hope he and his fellow eco-centrist running mate lose the upcoming leadership election.
