I don't want to be incendiary, but aren't they just getting new mods? Are the new people going to show up and wreck the place for fun?

  1. Make lemmy stupidly easy to prop up an instance
  2. Cap users of any instance to 100

This way, no one instance can bloat up to thousands of users and start making a big island.

I'm not that well read on this subject, but you can do this in your house or with a VPS? I always thought there was some conflict with residential internet and selfhosting?

Maybe I'm being pessimistic, but this whole thing is starting to sound like "don't interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." Was it rigged from the start? For a couple of days everyone was civil and in less than a week, "Let's Get Ready toooo RUMBLE"!

Was there another way?

Out of the loop here, but I've heard about this.

Is this roblox?

I will elaborate. Every user can and should make a list of instances they personally don't like, but admins/mods are also users. They're just telling you that we don't like these instances, but it's your choice on whether you want to block them or not. Maybe they shouldn't show it to you upon signup, I sort of agree there but a new user showing up and needing to start by cleaning up the place to their liking is a bit of friction for them. Will make a stronger selling point for another server that just defederates by default.

Here is the answer.

Autoblock spam and illegal content Make a "not cool" communities list and allow users to check a button upon signing up to block instantly.

Problem solved.

I love factorio!

Using Speed Queen as a benchmark, how does Maytag compare? I think they're cheaper but is the quality comparable?

Not sure if I should just make a post for this, but I will ask here.

Is lemmy searchable? The main appeal of reddit for me was searchability. I see a lot of different instances with different domains names.Maybe there is a meta search or something? Adding reddit to the end of a search was very convenient.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yes but I only see 2 problems so far. The siloing of instances and searchability. I can't search with lemmy yet since there are so many instances with no standard like with site:reddit.com. Way less issues than dealing with reddit so it's a big win for me!
