A geologist and archaeologist by training, a nerd by inclination - books, films, fossils, comics, rocks, games, folklore, and, generally, the rum and uncanny… Let’s have it!

@Cris_Color@lemmy.world being nice helps establish the “tone”, but I’m not sure that wouldn’t change with another “API event” on Reddit that results in another, larger mass migration.
The way I see it - the early adopters set the tone of a place and new arrivals are more likely to adopt that approach. So it is important to be kind now, so people will be kind later.

Report it - people jumping straight to insults are trying to shut discussion down which really isn’t acceptable.
Yeah, let’s show them! … how to be decent human beings by example.
Here is a discussion on Tumblr equivalents.
Sorry, English is not my first language, bit I thought the post is somewhat clear?
English is my first language and it was clear to me.
I already mentioned that there are edge cases. Edge cases do not discredit foundational frameworks that define reality.
But when you are trying to define or classify things it is the edge cases that are key. It is at the edges that we hope to find a clear divide between one set of things and another.
Unfortunately, with sex chromosomes, their impact on development and that effect on performance it feels like the more we know the less we understand.
International sporting bodies have huge resources and access to the best experts in the various fields and they can’t come up with a good way to classify male and female. I could, at least, see the logic in their going for testosterone exposure during puberty as being a useful guide, although it is complex and rather arbitrary, but there are counter-arguments to that which suggest it isn’t useful. So the sporting bodies seem to be falling back on chromosome testing, which is no guide at all to performance and seems to be favoured because it is easy to test for - like the drunk looking for his keys under a lamppost because the light was better there.
Can confirm. When we took over the running of feddit.uk migrating the images took forever as it was around 300GB.
I think there will be definitely people buying 2. 3 might depend on if the BLTs get a polish in the codex. Although 15 might still be a lot.
Perhaps Friendica because it plays nicely with following groups (Threadiverse) and profiles (most of everything else).
You might be able to self-host WordPress if it is just a matter of importing. As WP is federated, you can, presumably cross-post it from there.
You might want to spin up your own PieFed instance. There is someone using that service for a similar art project - they are grouping images into similar sets and displaying them like an image board. You can pin certain images and/or change the default sorting.
Reddit is worse, it is utterly indifferent to us. We’re just the skulls getting crushed under the treads of Skynet’s tank.
The prices as well unfortunately
Unfortunately so, but that is where these boxes shine as you can get up to a third off the usual price with all the units in this box being really solid.
Which tools specifically?
Standard Web forum tools include:
This post makes some good points about reports federating (being worked on, I believe) but also about the lack of what we’ll call a “moderation panel” where you can access tools for the community, like seeing a list of banned users and being able to add to it there or unban someone.
There are other “nice to have” tools like post approval
I am curious to see what moderation tools PieFed, has and NodeBB now they are federated, but the documentation is skimpy on that front.
It shouldn’t be too difficult. A move is essentially a cross-post but it keeps the OP as the poster (rather than the cross-poster). You’d then want to lock the original post, and either hide it or add a message directing people to the new post. That’s all current forum software does.
Address the comments or address the defederation?
I was the Admin who was contacted by Ada and that is a mischaracterisation of what I said. Our rules still stand that we won’t allow transphobia.
Unfortunately, as the ruling on the interpretation of the law has recently changed, we are going to have to figure out how we approach this and that is going to require a consensus amongst the Admins, and an agreement on our wording going forward.
This is going to take a bit for us to work out (although not too long, we’re getting there, I have been active on Lemmy but I don’t call the shots, and we need input from all Admins) and if, in the meantime, LBZ feel we aren’t moving fast enough and they need to defederate from us then that is obviously their right.
