Why was the American federal corrections system harder to escape compared to Colombia's?

Is the Java ecossystem of languages and related stuff a thing, professionally?

"Moderation tools are nonexistent on here. It also eats up storage like crazy [...] The software is downright frustrating to work with" - Can any other instance admins relate to this?

After a year online the free speech-focused instance ‘Burggit’ is shutting down.
