        I may say this as a LW user, but LBZ feels like home and the whole community was rightfully pretty hurt about the 196 drama. Glad everyone stood together and made it clear what was up, and that Ada’s work in particular is much appreciated

              For the record: Drag directed an individual to commit a specific act of violence that would likely result in suicide, which led to Drag being banned. This decision was based on basic community standards and not motivated by any “anti-Luigi” or “anti-leftist” sentiment.

                  Drag gets that your theory sounded nice, but it’s not true and here’s the proof. The 196 mods were not concerned with encouraging suicide.

              Ah sorry, I thought drag meant LW as it is the subject of the topic.

              Well, there are probably other communities to discuss Luigis.

      In another month or so when LW updates (the synching issue will actually be delayed even further beyond that they said), will this really be as much of an issue anymore?

      If they want to provide hosting services, then let them? We can always move if we don’t like them, and let’s face it that some of those giant communities are fairly toxic and would remain so wherever they go.

      Then again perhaps I am speaking of things that I do not know here: out of the top 10 communities listed there, I am not subscribed to any of them.

    LW is trying to be Reddit 2.0 with all the excessive moderation and “real” email address requirements. Hell, it might be even worse.

          nice to know they’re blacklisting burners instead of whitelisting “known” email domains at least!

    We need a server that just proxies the main instances but filters out every post containing “Trump” or “Musk”.

        Also the filters should include images of vote-slogans. Which could be tricky with OCR.

            I’m not sure a filter would actually work that well. For example, it might block out Trump and Musk, but then a new keyboard keyword appears, and having to manually re-adjust the filtering all the time quickly becomes tedious.

            Instead, it should probably be based on instances (for example, block a whole instance), communities (whitelist/blocklist communities), or some kind of more complicated recommendation algorithm, but i don’t know how that would work, or how to make it “unbiased” and fair.

                I guess making new instances gives us the chance to block certain topics from the start, setting in new moderators that can maybe be more stringent on keeping the community fun.

        If you dont want to see those type of posts, then you can follow communities which dont include them. And block any instances/communities you dont like so they disappear from /all. You can also create your own community with your own rules, or your own instance. Neither of these things is difficult, they just need time and determination.

    I don’t know if LW is too big, but there is such a thing a too big. Ideally no single instance should have to use “federation-style” synchronization within itself. Below that size economies of scale might justify growth, above… not so much.

      It’s too big regarding the whole platform. https://lemmy.world/comment/14610021
