Do you have a source for any of that? Historically, the Latin Church has leaned liberal.

The religious = irrationally conservative dynamic is a pretty broad stereotype.

Why is this news?

gedaliyah , 7 months ago to fediverse in One thing I hope to see in the Fediverse is people engaging with old content

I think they are talking about moderators locking threads. There should maybe be a “lock for 30 days” option that would allow threads to open up after things cool down. Although if a post led to abuse in the past, perhaps it is likely to do the same later on.

There is also the option to sort by “active,” which is not exactly what you are describing but makes it more likely to see older content. Some apps default to this sorting mode

Is there any source corroborating this story? No offence but I’ve never heard of this “Hell Gate NYC” reporting commune and there is basically nothing about it online.

gedaliyah , 7 months ago to fediverse in What are the practical benefits of the fediverse?

Exactly this. I left Xitter because the moderation became so bad that literal bigoted harassment of entire communities was left unchecked. What are my options? Stay or leave.

I left reddit because the server became hostile to the ways that it was useful to me (third part app usage, corrupt moderation and administration, etc.). Again, the options were to stay or go.

If any of those problems were to happen here on lemmy.world, I could migrate to another instance and still have access to the platform.

gedaliyah , 7 months ago to technology in Proton Mail says that the new Outlook app for Windows is Microsoft's new data collection service

I just checked and you’re exactly right. It does have OAuth, but uses IMAP. In retrospect, I think I did have to talk to our sysadmin when I first set it up.

gedaliyah , 7 months ago to technology in Proton Mail says that the new Outlook app for Windows is Microsoft's new data collection service

Like all open source software, there’s more of a build-it-yourself ethos. I was able to customize it to my liking to replace most of the functions of Outlook. Someone here mentioned the focused View which was hit or miss to be honest, but it did a good job of filtering out most of the nonsense.

It took a little bit of time to get the settings, layout, and add-ons that I wanted for my workflow. The best thing about switching is honestly how quick it is, how easy it is to have all my emails open in one window with tabs, and above and beyond all, a super powerful, super quick search. I feel like modern searches across all software are doing away with Boolean operations, thinking they can replace it with AI rankings. A straightforward search that lets me find exactly what I’m looking for and nothing I’m not feels like a superpower in this day and age.

gedaliyah , 7 months ago to technology in Proton Mail says that the new Outlook app for Windows is Microsoft's new data collection service

For me, Mail was a little anemic. It’s nice to have a more full-featured option, but I agree that it’s a mistake for MS to can the Mail App that met 90% of people’s needs.

I use if for exchange and gmail - it’s pretty robust. Plus, they are approaching completion of their mobile app which has similar capabilities
