I miss /r/dogelore anyone aware of a fediverse replacement?

conditional_soup , to memes in Calling all devs! We need moderation tools that can deal with the growth of Lemmy.

okay, let’s talk turkey. let’s define some requirements for the mod tools, and then we can start talking about how to satisfy those requirements.

I can code, but I’ve never been a moderator. What kind of mod tools do you want?

Don’t call it “accidental database deletion”. Call it “unannounced live exercise of backup procedure”.

Either that or rapid exodus from the country

I don’t even work with databases but I still have a fear of possibly doing this someday.

If it happens, it’s a lack of controls, and, at least mostly, not your fault

Lemming , to programmerhumor in I think I leave early today

Embrace it as you are now officially a developer

At some point this is just a rite of passage

Just tell them you identify as female. They won’t be able to say shit unless they start throwing religion at you.

Sunrosa ,

Gotta be careful doing this. It gives them more ammunition behind the vitriol of transgender people.

BigPapaE , to mildlyinteresting in On this day CBS aired the first color TV broadcast in the US

Makes you wonder what mind blowing technology they’re going to have 70 years from now

sygnius ,

I would imagine that we would’ve reached our limit on visual technology. The next step would be to integrate our other senses, like a haptic vest to feel the action in movies or something like that.

Watching that balloon deflate like a wet fart rather than pop was a huge disappointment

JeffCraig , to fediverse in fediverse soon

The beauty of the fediverse is that the last panel can’t happen.

We control our own instances. There’s no world where admins wouldn’t defederate from any Facebook attempt to barge in.

Maybe a few larger instances sell out, but users hold the power here now. If an admin betrays our trust, we’ll just make a new instance.

doctorzeromd ,

Even more than defederating, it’s in the hands of users. If people were to flood in from somewhere with bad intentions, it would likely be from one or two servers. At that point, just block those servers/communities from your view and continue about your day

zerozaku ,

At that point, just block those servers/communities from your view and continue about your day

But what if those servers/instances are the ones which has quality communities in it and what if the users and owners of those communities refuse to migrate to new server/instance? Wouldn’t that be the same case of reddit where the user base is split and the new migrated server/instance needs building again?

ram ,

DING DING DING. Here’s Facebook’s playbook:

  1. Create close sourced ActivityPub implementation to federate with mastodon/lemmy and gain users.
  2. Offer better experience than competition via exclusive features, reliability, more communities, etc.
  3. Once enough users have been obtained, completely defederate from fediverse.

This is absolutely a bad outcome and I hope the pact prevents this from playing out.
However, I feel kind of ok with losing the subset of users that would accept and use a Facebook implementation of the fediverse. It directly defeats the purpose, regardless of how much better the UI/UX may be, and shows they didn’t understand it in the first place.

What counts as an active user? Voting? Commenting? Posting?

The entirely of modern America could be summarized with “Mildly Infiruating”, tbh.

It is utterly baffling to me how the US has not figured out nationalized healthcare. Literally every other developped nation in the western hemisphere has at this point.

A politician could come out and say “my number one priority is to ensure that every American has access to healthcare, paid for by the state”, and would instantly be villified by like half the country, and that’s insane.

Negative_Pair_5694 , to fediverse in lemmy.world leads the pack as the #1 most active instance, outpacing the next 5 non-bot instances combined!

Also lemmy.world is extremely slow in pushing out messages to other instances, if at all. So leading the pack is not necessarily the best thing until you figure out scaling.

@terribleplan@lemmy.nrd.li avatar

Yeah, they should really consider not accepting new users until that is figured out, honestly. There are plenty of servers out there that people can join at this point. Too much centralization in a decentralized system for my liking regardless of instance scaling.
