Thank you for the tips.
I'm a moderator on the community where I encountered the spambot account, and already banned it there. My question is wondering how I can report the user upstream to the instance admins. I'm not very familiar with Lemmy, I see that there's a modlog, so perhaps the SDF admins would need to monitor it and act based on the user getting banned from one of their communities?
Erin Kissane has an excellent article on why Meta doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt. Meta/Facebook has had power over social media before and displayed incredible disregard for human life, much less anything else related to healthy communities.
To treat Threads the same as a brand new instance and federate with it is a mistake.
Just migrated from gerboa to voyager on f-droid. Voyager seems to work well so far.
That sucks, yeah. Thanks for sharing, its good to know that its not just me.
I'm not, I guess I wouldn't be surprised if this happened and I was though. Thanks for the context.
Thank you for the advice!
Started this morning. All of my personal tools like nextcloud and RSS reader were blocked, and I had to go manually override that screen for each one. Unacceptable.
Thank you for the suggestion!
That does help! Now I know it's not some global setting or affecting all users. Thanks!
Edit: I found it, apparently the list isn't ordered line-by-line, and sdfpubnix was just crammed beside another community name!
I'm not sure if that's a bug or not. I'm joined to the community, but for some reason it doesn't show up in the list with the other ones. Has this happened for anyone else?
To get here I currently click on @SDF in the "about us" sidebar, and then click sdfpubnix in that account's moderated communities list...
Hi,
When posting animated images, I see that the file is converted into .webm, but no thumbnail is generated. I'm curious if that's just me, or the case for others, or intentional.
No worries. Lemmy needs to be able to gracefully handle deletions, I'm just raising the flag that either something is configured weird or lemmy needs a bug fix somewhere.
I had a notification on the bell icon, and when clicking to open context for the item it returns a server error. Just FYI for the SDF crew.
I had a libre-booted X220 through college, and absolutely loved it. BUT it eventually couldn't keep up with my desire to be able to use Blender, Code::Blocks, and other more demanding software. Still miss that laptop.
Just learned about this, made editing speed limits a lot easier!
