Question about possible vulnerability in lemmy
User “Wookie_the_ewok” appears to have changed their username on the same account to “Chuckles the cheese” unless im misunderstanding how lemmy works. Seems sketchy in the sense that could be a way to troll, violate TOS, and evade bans and defederation. Maybe someone more knowledgable than myself could explain better...

People who work in food service or customer service: What’s the dumbest thing a customer ever insisted was “the law” or “illegal”?
Brought to you by my discovery that some people think that “the customer is always right” isn’t the slogan of a long-dead department store, but rather it’s an actual call the cops law.

Please don’t ask why I need this....
Whaf do you think of hosting an AMA with John Oliver to make Lemmy/kbin officially a viable Reddit replacement?

What is the difference between linked instances and allowed instances?
I’ve contributed to the project for a few months and used it for over a year and I still don’t know the difference. I think I asked the maintainers once, but I forget the answer.
