Interesting! Look’s really cool

I migrated over to writefreely, here’s the new link. https://my.jewy.blog/my-love-hate-relationship-with-lemmy

As well, I should highlight the project jgrim was desiring to do was an external mod tooling system for lemmy. Not something within lemmy itself.

It especially leads to harassment of vulnerable people. There’s many aspects of moderation that is done here that if implemented in other fediverse software would become a vector for Kiwifarms level harassment.

The thing is, sublinks lead developer tried to work with development team of lemmy. It was like pulling teeth constantly and his experience was overall negative.

I deleted the activitypub plugin because of how wonky it is, try again and let me know if you have any issue now

Interesting. I might have to remove the activitypub plugin regardless then.

It can become a source of targeted harassment, as it has on the rest of the fediverse before.

I couldn’t find their pronouns listed anywhere, but it was my bad to assume regardless. Fixed it, my apologies.

I will migrate it to sublinks as soon as I can.

It might be an issue with the activitypub plugin, https://jewy.blog/b/1T try this shortlink version instead

Honestly coming here and starting my own instance and providing help for other instances and stuff has reignited my long lost love of computers and open source stuff. The passion for it is thankfully coming back.

The only thing I really have to add is on the topic of toxicity. Like you, I’m an instance admin and have a bird’s eye view of a lot of behavior patterns. I’ve recently started wondering how many people are here because they’re too toxic for regular social media rather than because they want to be here. I won’t guess an actual number, but I would say it’s not insignificant.

That’s unfortunately a big issue with alternative social media platforms and without tools to combat them it goes bad really bad. I agree completely.

For context, there’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes when it comes to lemmy admin stuff especially in the matrix channels. There is a significant frustration and lack of confidence in the lemmy developers at this point. Even those who try to contribute to the project get eventually feeling pushed out.

Welcome to the hell of being a lemmy admin. There’s a reason why lemmy admins are fed up with the developers.

Will there eventually be a means of converting lemmy instances over to sublinks? I know that inter instance software migration is a nightmare though.

i hope it is due to my library or cat posts and not my occasional cursed shitposts

unironically loving the way it gives me a double notification on lemmy

With Tumblr the bugs became features, so its only right for the fediverse version to do the same.

Oooooof yeah I didn’t even think about the fact that instance might fuck up the user account number statistics. Ugh. I don’t think that’s a lemmy thing, that’s an alien.top thing.
