You can if you want to, but I bet the problem is more “cultural”, so a shift in people is needed. Like make it illegal to make publicity about it for under 21 yo. And show the grim aftermath in stores selling guns. Then no publicity at all and so on. Tax guvs and bullets, educate people.
We did it with cigarettes, and it worked out really well IMO. Today cigarettes are not “cool” anymore and usage has been falling sharp.
If they all hang out on communities on the server (more or less), no problemo at all.
But if they all roam around and sign up on thousands of active communities on other servers, my server will be under water.
I love thinking about stuff like this (P=NP, complexity, etc) and I do not see very much about that concerning the lemmyverse which is IMO a shame.
I’m planning setting up a Lemmy build so I can tinker around with it, but you know, time and stuff. I also spent a lot of time just setting up the docker version so maybe it’s quite the job :-)
I run lemmy.mindoki.com on a pc I built from spare parts (40€ dell plus for fun I got a hexa core for 50-ish and swapped out the celeron gold), only new “expensive” thing is the mechanical hard drive I guess but it’s really not needed. I had it laying around and there were already an SSD. I also had the website so no hidden cost there either.
So it heats up my bedroom (but not enough, so the electricity cost is nil ATM).
How to even start, everything isn’t about the USA.
What do you want to convey here? I mean why not take a smart, intelligent stake on some logic you think seems to be right instead of mixing some random meme stuff together?
Feels like Kremlin bait posting so please prove me you have an opinion more than A bad, B good or something.
