That description is very fair. Hopefully as Memmy and other Lemmy apps progress, we will have more and easier moderation tools for users (rather than relying on admins).

Relish it. Go through your receipt and verify every item is in the bags. Bonus points for ticking off each entry with a pen and confirming the SKUs are correct.

Lol hell no. I can’t figure out why my kids want to watch some stranger play a video game.

Dude we’re old af and don’t have time to finish the games themselves. We sure as shit don’t have time to play extra levels on top.

I have an alternate solution: Let them in, and harass them mercilessly beyond the purview of Meta rules.

I mean, isn’t that good? Small instances thrive because they run faster without the overload of a bunch of users. I don’t want every asshole from Instagram on the instance I’m on.

Why would Meta target small instances, though, instead of larger, more popular ones? And how does it matter if Meta blocks small instances or if small instances block Meta? The result is the same.

Honestly, I don’t see how this is a threat to “small” instances. Why would Meta target defederation with some dude’s 5 user instance that barely registers on anyone’s radar?

Karma was originally visible raw upvote / downvote tally. Reddit just obscured the upvote and downvote numbers to discourage manipulation for karma.

Limiting participation based on karma didn’t happen for a long time. By the time some huge subreddits took that step, it (or some other gatekeeping) was necessary to filter a lot of malicious users.

Well. Fuck.

It isn’t a single site or host, and there is no owner. Wouldn’t that be like saying “e-mail must be GDPR compliant”?

 

I’m loving wefwef, but obviously it does not yet have feature parity with the web versions of fediverse instances. For example, if the user wants to block a community or what have you, the user must open a browser and manually navigate to the same location to do so. Saving images, copying text, and other capabilities just aren’t there (yet).

As a workaround, give the user the option to open the current location in a web browser. The user can do whatever they want there without retracing steps to manually find the same location. Then the user can quickly switch back to wefwef to continue use.

Thanks for everything you all are doing with it.
