9 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I've noticed that at least one community from mander.xyz hasn't loaded since the update a few days ago. Here's an example:

https://beehaw.org/c/nativeplantgardening@mander.xyz?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New

https://mander.xyz/c/nativeplantgardening?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New

I'm not sure if this is happening elsewhere. Has anyone else noticed this?

Development wise i think mod tools are far more important

As a user who has literally never seen a post that needed any moderation... I'm struggling to see how that's more important. Clearly the moderation tools are good enough right now, because the moderators are able to do their job very well with whatever tools they have.

Basic stuff, like reading content, is totally broken right now. Large numbers of comments (millions maybe?) which should be visible, are not visible. That's clearly more important. I hope Beehaw waits a week or three before deploying the next version incase it's even worse.

Two big instances were defederated by Beehaw recently because there were no sufficient tools to deal with problematic users. For detailed information have a look at the announcement.

In case you want to see pre-moderated contet you can look at the mod log. I read a couple of pages some weeks ago. Besides a good amount of technical stuff like double posts, there was a lot of racist, trans-/homophobe content and general insults. What we see is the result of plenty of work done with insuffient tools. Keep in mind Lemmy is still 0.xx.
