    You want a…private…community on the Fediverse? I’m sorry Sir/Mme, I think you are pretty lost and confused here. Nowhere is it specified that this community is exclusively for iOS users.

        My point is that this is supposed to be community for people who daily drive these Apple operating systems

        Counterpoint:

        Apple !apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

          Yup, them’s the rules.

          All I’m saying is that this community often feels like walking into a restaurant called “The Vegan Enthusiast” and finding everyone complaining about the lack of steak on the menu.

          Realistically, Lemmy is only really only going to be able to discourage brigading and focus community conversations once it implements some of the community subscription options that Reddit’s mod tools have.

            Sure, but that’s an entirely different complaint. I still think this is not the place for that. If you want privacy go to a forum or a discord, or wherever walled garden people like on the Internet to gatekeep communities now (non-derogadory, there’s uses for that kind of places).

            Lemmy is already an echo chamber, such rules would make it worse. There’s not ensured volume of interaction yet to grant that either. Limit c/apple_enthusiast and the community collapses in inactivity.
