Bluesky just got major investment from a crypto bro…
It’s not flukey…
CachyOS. I use it because I am a fan of Arch based systems, rolling releases etc, but CachyOS is optimised for my generation of hardware, and has lots of good default configurations for various apps. They have a customised proton version, a good default fish profile etc.
tl;dr It’s Arch, but optimised, and slightly more pre-configured out of the box.
Not even!

None of them really fit me. Do I need to hand in my transfem card? :P
2·4 days agoThink of it like email.
You have an email account with yahoo. That allows you to send and receive emails from gmail users, but it doesn’t let you login to gmail with your yahoo account.
There are projects around to try and change that, so you can login to one instance using your account on another instance, but at this point in time, it’s basically not a thing that can be done by most fediverse software.
Thanks. This is one of the reasons we generally don’t upgrade immediately :)
You think a trans person getting death threats wouldn’t love to be able to identify as their AGAB?
No… That person wouldn’t be me, they’d be someone else…
I don’t remember him speaking like that though! :P
It’s a federated protocol, but the network itself isn’t meaningfully federated, and is basically just Bluesky (the company) infrastructure. Hopefully that changes, because until then, it’s still a centralised social media platform, despite the underlying technology
Maybe I’ve just played too much Shadowrun with too many Australians, but lots of them ended up speaking like that, even when they weren’t meant to be Australian! :)
A poster in that community posted a link to stonetoss (a vocal transphobic nazi artist). The post was removed by an automod, only to be manually restored. The person who posted it (the only mod of the community) hasn’t deleted it. It’s still visible on the home instance today.
For that reason, the community and the person who posted the nazi artist have been removed from blahaj, because if they won’t moderate nazi content, it means I have to double check every submission to that community.
If the sole moderator of a community was banned from an instance, does that make the community unavailable to the instance they were banned from?
No.
No, it doesn’t make the group inaccessible by other users, however, if the content posted by the banned user is also removed, it means that a lot of the group content also goes away if that user was active.
In this case, I also banned the group itself, because a group that won’t moderate against nazis is a group that I have to moderate to ensure nazi content doesn’t slip through.
But if it’s a one-off then I understand that you might not have the context to know that this guy is an asshole.
If you have any evidence of Lawrence acknowledging that stonetoss is a nazi and making it clear it won’t be posted again, I’m happy to restore that user.
If they just stayed silent on the whole topic, and didn’t acknowledge, I’m not giving them the benefit of the doubt.
Question for the mods: Is it possible to open a proper investigation to see if we can restore access to [email protected]? I love comics, it’s kind of a bummer that I can’t look at content (or even find) the largest comic community on Lemmy
If you can show me that something has happened to ensure that stonetoss won’t appear in that community again I’m happy to restore it, but as it stands, the stonetoss comic that started this is still visible in that community on lemmy.world. Lawrence (the only mod of the community) hasn’t removed it.
0·8 days agoThis is not polyamory. This is polygamy. They’re pretty much opposites, because polyamory is about multi partner relations that respect the needs and wants of all of the participants.
Polygamy on the other hand, is only about the freedom of one person (usually a man), and actively restricts the rights of the other participants.

Anything that requires end users to react to trolls in a reactive way and in a troll by troll basis, and only after the troll has dropped their payload is going to take its toll on vulnerable folk.
Big popular blocklists that people subscribe to aren’t always the answer, because they also have a history of incidentally impacting marginalised groups, even when they’re trying to protect them.
