It especially leads to harassment of vulnerable people. There's many aspects of moderation that is done here that if implemented in other fediverse software would become a vector for Kiwifarms level harassment.

The thing is, sublinks lead developer tried to work with development team of lemmy. It was like pulling teeth constantly and his experience was overall negative.

It is unfortunate that this is what you have decided to take away from the blog post instead of reflecting on the criticism I have provided. Instead of reflecting on my list of legitimate criticism you have decided to call me entitled and hone in on small aspects of the blog post in attempt to dismiss it completely. Per usual, it is everyone else that seems to be the problem but you. I outlined my own issues with lemmy after a LOT of patience and goodwill. That's lost, and this comment solidifies further why I will switch away from lemmy as soon as I get the chance. Whether you decide to accept the points I have made is on you but ultimately your refusal to recognize the issues I have outlined will cause this project to fade away completely. And that's really sad. I love lemmy as a project and an idea.

Do you run an instance or have you ever ran a fediverse instance before?

[–] gabe@literature.cafe 1 points 1 year ago

I deleted the activitypub plugin because of how wonky it is, try again and let me know if you have any issue now

[–] gabe@literature.cafe 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You aren't, it's a weird issue with the activitypub plugin I am having. I'm contemplating removing the plugin itself due to this.

It can be a source of harassment to not be able to anonymize actions.

[–] gabe@literature.cafe 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Interesting. I might have to remove the activitypub plugin regardless then.

[–] gabe@literature.cafe 14 points 1 year ago (7 children)

It can become a source of targeted harassment, as it has on the rest of the fediverse before.

I couldn't find their pronouns listed anywhere, but it was my bad to assume regardless. Fixed it, my apologies.

[–] gabe@literature.cafe 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I will migrate it to sublinks as soon as I can.

[–] gabe@literature.cafe 8 points 1 year ago (5 children)

It might be an issue with the activitypub plugin, https://jewy.blog/b/1T try this shortlink version instead

 

They seem to be primarily linked to a nostr relay right now, but knowing them I doubt theyll stay allowlist only for long.

Immediately defederated cause fuck that shit.

It was a relatively quick update, seems to have a fixed a multitude of issues that 0.19 caused.

Also, local only communities are in the pipeline. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4350

Local only communities will not federate and will be only seen by those with an account. As soon as it's implemented as a feature, I'll make a local only casual chat community for the instance if that sounds like a good plan?

 

Hey yall, just wanted to pop in for a quick update. I'm here and very much alive and well. Things have been kinda dead off and on, just been recovering from medical stuff and just tending the server and occasionally popping in for the auto scheduled bot post.

Basically, I took a break from being super active here for my own well being to prevent from fully burning out. I'm feeling a bit better and am ready to dive back in to lemmy.


So, the elephant in the room. As some of you may already know, Meta's twitter clone thread's is actively making steps towards federation with AcivityPub. At baseline this doesn't really affect lemmy anyway since content is very broken out from lemmy into the outside world, and facebook is explicitly building with microblogging in mind. Lemmy is still in its infancy, and it likely will not work with threads when they fully federate anyway.

With that aside, we will not be federating with Facebook or any of its platforms. Beyond all the clear issues such as meta being an active danger human society (reading list can be provided if there's any interest about the evil of Meta/Facebook), I'm here to read and talk about books not mop up after Facebook. Moderation tools in Lemmy aren't up to par as is and the idea of federating with an instance nearly triple the current user count of the entire fediverse makes me feel ill. I hope yall understand.


That's about it, any questions? Thoughts? Concerns?

 

Please stand by!
