They’re DMing mods. No one else is doing the investigative journalism on this.
I think someone at The Verge is really committed to this, and with good reason. Reddit is showing what can happen when you invest your energy into a corporate platform.
You’re in RedditMigration…
TIL hentai is banned in Australia lol
@spriteblood nah, editing is the way to go. mass deletion doesn’t seem to be working too well anyway.
@nxlemmy
Only difference here is maybe some posts don’t originate on an instance with the word Lemmy in it. It could be kbin or feddit or beehaw, etc.
We gotta find out whatever the best search term would be for the Fediverse.
I hope so! Might hurt their valuation lol
@soft_frog I was a mod on Reddit for a bit. As far as bans go, permabans were rare. There were a few people, however, that I or another mod banned that would play this “I was just joking” or “all I said was x and they banned me” game, but we would use a mod tag on these people so we quickly remember why we banned them. And it’s like dude, you told the dev who’s promoting their game to kill themselves.
There are some shitty people out there, and mods have to clean up their shit (hopefully before anyone else sees) so the users have a good experience in our community.
Yeah, there are some bad mods out there too, but it’s the ones that care that are going to have to work double time without these third party tools, and the site is going to lose some of those with this change.
@megane_kun I was thinking something very similar. I’m sure there are keywords they’re looking for too, like “third party apps” and “fuck /u/spez” which trigger the restore.
@gkd I would love an Android app! Will it support kbin.social?
@Hypx same with Tumblr. It exists, but the core reason I used it is now gone and so are many of its members.
+1 to Tetris Effect. Play it with some good audio too, they really went hard with it. NMS is always a blast.
