I edited and deleted all my posts and comments, yet a google search will show all my comments and posts still there. If I edit and delete the posts from the post page it works, but I did it through my profile and it only hid my comments and didn’t even apply the edits…. Kinda frustrated and have no resolution with Reddit. Waiting to see if my comments are still there in my gpdr request.
This is not how it works. Google has its own copy, possibly a stale one. Nothing Reddit can do about it. As much as I'd love to blame it on Reddit (or Google for that matter), this is just a search engine working as intended.
When I was a mod, karma points could come in handy when trying to decide if a user 1) just had a one-off weird day and just needed one comment removed, 2) had a slightly questionable comment history and needed to have all comments manually approved or 3) had a history of hate speech and needed to be banned immediately across the associated communities.
I also appreciated in informational subs that karma would allow for the most accurate or additional information to rise to the top. It wasn’t 100% accurate and could really depend upon the sub, particularly the moderation team, but it allowed the drivel or disinformation to be more easily ignored.
Sure, there’s a bit of gamification with made up points, but karma does have it’s uses and I’m hoping that the positive aspects can be brought over to the fediverse.
Two things with thumbnails: the photo is cropped, it should resize to the ratio and show everything so we can see the full thumbnail instead of a cropped one. Secondly, can you make it so clicking on an image thumbnail opens the image instead of going into the thread and then needing to click the thumbnail again to expand it/open it. Thanks
The people in that subreddit seem pretty cringe and whiny. Some of them will quietly eat their word in the not so distant future when Lemmy and Kbin has more useful features than Reddit as Reddit keeps going down hill.
Edit: I am releasing Boost for Lemmy, you can pre-register to get notified when it is available. In the meantime you can create an account and join lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy
This is where I get confused with the federation part. If I’m signed up on kbin and masterdon do I need to sign up on lemmy as well or is it pointless having 3 signups if you are able to see all posts?
It is useful to have just 2 logins, one for kbin (or lemmy) and one for Mastodon (or Calckey).
You can see content from Mastodon on kbin but it's not the same experience since there's no timeline, hashtag follow, etc. Similarly you can see threads from kbin in Mastodon but the UI is not very nice.
For kbin and lemmy, different logins are not needed since they share the way they show information. So you can seamlessly browse lemmy content in kbin without worrying where it was originally posted.
