dessalines,

I just watched this, it was a very good video, experienced a lot of the same things he did/does, thx. Was really interesting learning about the history of some these “alienated loner with god-complex” that was cultivated in early tech. Also good stuff about how the purpose for a given space shapes the discussion and interactions.

A lot of us understand the problem: that silicon-valley, in pursuit of profits and engagement, has wrecked peoples brains with traumatizing ragebait for years, and how stressful it makes all of our lives. We have to do everything we can to make these spaces the opposite: enjoyable, fun, and at the same time not addictive.

dessalines,

No probs. I got these ones too.

dessalines,

Thx for this work. I banned a lot of the users above, since most of them were just community squatting and had zero posts.

For the inactive communities, use !community_requests and we can transfer them as necessary.

  • dessalines,

    Thx for this, I took care of em. Keep reporting these scammers in the future and we’ll get to it as soon as we can.

    dessalines,

    Was just gonna say this. Run discord and slack, and you’re all set.

    dessalines,

    Usually gets much easier after a few days.

    His reaction looks like he’s getting interviewed by Dr. Steve Brule.

    dessalines,

    Never doing a code rewrite gives you stuff like this: a 15ft long nerve that should only have to travel a few inches

    dessalines,

    You’d have to have an account on this instance.

    dessalines,

    That sounds correct for the user settings form, but not for the comment / post creation form. Open up an issue on lemmy-ui’s gitbub for this if you would.

    dessalines,

    Possibly, but this is more likely related to your language settings, not having undetermined selected.

    dessalines,

    For privacy reasons, and so that people will vote honestly, I’d like this to stay admin-only (and possibly in the future, community mods). But if you ping an admin, we can look into it and see if you’re being downvote-stalked.

    dessalines, (edited )

    Lemmy is one of the few ones platforms that attempts to preserve vote and mod action privacy, to prevent harassment, and encourage ppl to vote honestly. Several other platforms just let any user see who voted, which isn’t the best idea since it’s been shown that ppl are less likely to be honest if they know that their votes are public.

    The main reason I added it for admins, is bc a lot of ppl have been understandably upset by downvote-stalkers, or those who downvote with multiple accounts.

    Like anything, there’s the possibility for abuse, but at least by limiting it to admins only, we can prevent a lot of potential harassment that other platforms are currently allowing.

    dessalines,

    I believe they’re lost, as recieved apub content doesn’t have the original post / comments, but I’m not totally sure. cc @nutomic
