small correction: the post that displays the instance you’re on (https://void.rehab/notes/9umvfd1lgoulvm0j) won’t work with “'regular” iceshrimp. it depends on an extra patch added to the version on void.rehab to function.

After seeing a team of fedi software developers drop their Matrix bridge to their Discord after the total lack of moderation tooling resulted in an extremely transphobic spam wave, I for one am not surprised.
Another team I’m aware of also dropped Matrix for other reasons, but went for Zulip instead, which is also open, but more collaboration oriented a la Slack rather than community oriented like Discord, which probably would not fit what the group in the OP is looking for.
people in real: hey how’s it going
Lemmy’s cross posts are separate posts that just happen to link to the same thing. so only replies to the original post would be sent with the current design.
that said, i severely doubt Lemmy will gain anything from this. publishers will not be sending out their posts to any communities, and i highly doubt they will expose any fep-1b12 group actors you can subscribe as a community.
kbin/mbin with it’s ability to follow users may work better, assuming people test their federation with software other than mastodon, and accept any of the interoperability bugs as actual bugs instead of ignoring them. (lemmy itself is no stranger to this: the fact that users and communities can share the same username break quite a bit)
i dont think i have the ai on my google yet + the pic works better if its obviously faked
while i don’t have any specific opinions about this that other people haven’t addressed, i just want to flag up something;
How this could be enforced? No voting from the All and/or Local feed. Seems easy and straight forward.
this seems unenforcable. as in, you can’t really tell where someone discovered a post from. yeah you can just remove the buttons from those views clientside and it’ll probably work for the majority of cases, but alternate clients or modifications to lemmy-ui can simply put the buttons back in (or in cases of unmaintained or differently opinionated clients, just not remove the buttons at all). the backend can’t really differentiate which view a vote comes from. federation especially can’t differentiate which view a vote comes from.
wdw and it’s circle is hands down the best fedi has to offer. miss me with that mastodon.social shit
at least you can use mastodon in the meantime
I would absolutely boost this to the microblog-verse if Lemmy federation with Misskey wasn’t broken
this is how it starts. first you open one for your cat as a joke and next thing you know you’re going meow meow :3 nyaaa~~ at people online and suddenly social media starts makign sense
and nyaizes your text so all your "na"s end up "nya"s. western forks like firefish/iceshrimp/sharkey have that separate from the cat ears toggle but honestly why would you disable that?
misskey cat mode my beloved <3
epic megapost
OP edited them out after posting for whatever reason
i cant help but not to when the entire internet has nothing but amerlcan politics
i dont even live in america
What I’m more worried about are posts relating to news mainly. Where even if the immediate first level comments are fine, there are threads that get out of hand really quickly.
I agree that while posts inherently designed to be controversial may not benefit from Active considering the influences voting has (though me being on an instance that has downvotes disabled may be influencing my view here!), Active may make it significantly easier for an otherwise innocent post to devolve into a flame war.
The main excuse for this kind of algorithm seems to be around “promoting discussion”, but in my experience tech that’s intended to promote discussion does inherently promote flame wars too, as they’re extremely difficult if not impossible to distinguish without a human in the loop. I’ve attempted to write something about this on the microblogging side of the fedi, directly influenced by this post
I’m just throwing this out there but having the default sort incentivize comments seems like it’d highlight posts meant to cause flame wars… Is that what we want out of this platform?
The Pleroma family of ActivityPub servers are on Elixir and their bottleneck seems to be their awful database schema where everything is JSONB, and even then they’re known to be quite lightweight, so I assume with a proper DB schema it’d work quite well…
