Build communities without the middle men.

Polanski is gay, but I don’t know if he’s into Russians.

I did: https://bsky.app/profile/flamingos-cant.xyz/post/3mcd423kj2c2t, Bridgy-fed wraps the entire text content of a post into a single <p> element so the it’s being collapsed into a single paragraph in the markdown conversion.

Writing is okish, editing however is horrendous.

Formatting is a bit weird, but it works! https://feddit.uk/post/42603656

Maybe if we also started to promote eugenics and race science we’d also get the full backing of the American government.

When you delete something, your instance sends it the instance of the community. The community is suppose to process that and then forward that delete to every instance where a subscriber of that community resides. In this case, either zip failed to send the delete to world or something went wrong on world.

The mod of that community, qrstuv, is known to have weird opinions and enforces them heavy handedly. The no abbreviations thing is something that’s come up before, don’t know what their issue with the terms propaganda and kangaroo court is.

Just an fyi, but this is a news comm. Something like this would probably be better suited for !memes@feddit.uk or !okmatewanker@feddit.uk. I’ll keep this up, but just bear it in mind for the future.

Also: !justpost@lemmy.world

LMAO, a and o are on opposite end of the keyboard, how do you even do this?

This is Summit, which also shows 999+ for me despite me not having that many unread notifs.

It’s not a brag, it’s a confession.

I treat my inbox here like my email inbox (I have 548 ‘unread’ notifications).

The reason is bullshit, for sure. They should have pointed to the comm rule instead.

I mod !uk_politics and I’ve seen good articles go negative just because people don’t find the headline agreeable.

It’s rather questionable whether it’s worth it to dogpile the post with negative comments, versus just downvoting and moving on.

One, downvoting something can be a form of dogpiling and two, the mods clearly want disagreement to be voiced in the comments not through downvotes. This is laid in rules so I don’t think this constitutes power tripping behaviour.

How is just downvoting something telling someone a post is misinformation? People downvote stuff over the most random crap here. Also, they didn’t use admin powers, no site bans were handed out only 3 month comm bans.

Sure, it’s a bad article that relies on iffy reasoning, but it manages to dress that up enough that I can see why someone might be duped by it. And it hardly seems fair to be this vitriolic about someone being misinformed and enforcing their comm rules when no actually points out what’s wrong with what’s been posted or links to actual numbers, rather than guesstimations of the article author.

Rule 4 of that comm is:

Don’t downvote because you disagree. Doing so repeatedly may result in a ban

All the bans are from people just downvoting this post (but people who downvoted + commented didn’t get banned). Call the rule stupid or whatever, but this seems like honest enforcement of an established rule so I’d hardly call it PTB behaviour.

I think so, at least a reverse image search shows in image has been posted in the Black Lagoon subreddit.
