Oh, you can update the picture on Lemmy? Didn’t even occur to me, because I’m so used to the bad practices of Reddit.

All fun and games until we comment how wholesome something is, it swaps to goatse, and our comments get screenshotted & us doxxed.

That’d be a pretty targeted attack (and a good chance to find out who we know has a good sense of humor). Quite unlikely.

Could think of a sicko getting CSAM in the #1 spot on the front page if their initial upload was worthy of getting there…

Content swaps & edits always have some problems but I’ve definitely appreciated that feature.

Well, as long as Lemmy remains small enough, content swapping probably isn’t going to be a major issue. I think I’ve seen some posts about the data Lemmy collects. Isn’t there like a public history of upvotes, edits and all that?

I believe admins have access to just about everything including PMs.

I would guess that for some people, shocking a hundred users before a mod can delete a post would feel like a win in their feeble & deranged minds, so reactive controls (while very important) have a limit to their value.

Don’t have any suggestion here haha just hoping folks behave and weirdos keep it to 4chan.
