Sharing and discussing the brilliant new political ad from the UK’s Green Party with leader Zack Polanski, and taking a look at how far the Greens have come in just a few short months since his victory as leader.

@BrikoX Unfortunately lemmy.zip is restricted in the UK because online safety act, so we can’t see your post.
Direct access to lemmy.zip is restricted, but the post is still federated so people from any other instance can access it.
Post can be accessed from the UK here: https://feddit.uk/post/43147418

@flamingos Thanks. Original still hasn’t made its way across to my Mastodon instance it seems, but I can see this.
That’s just how Mastodon renders Lemmy posts unfortunately, it just takes the title, makes it bold and adds a link directly to the post.
@flamingos I know. Federated but not the same.
I’m in the UK and can see this post just fine.
Edit: oh hi cybervegan. I wasn’t expecting to see you here!
UK here. I can see the post fine.
Yes it’s fine if you view it from other instances, but the original federated version on lemmy.zip is inaccessible.
It should also be said that it isn’t so much because of the Online Safety Act, but because of a protest stance taken by lemmy.zip against the Online Safety Act. Similar to imgur, although with imgur it was more because they had other legal issues in the UK and they used the OSA as an excuse to step out.
None of lemmy.zip infrastruture is hosted inside UK, but lemmy.zip main admin is UK citizen so the law can target him directly. Not sure how much of it was a protest and how much of it was a simple protection from abusive law.
