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.

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.

Are you able to renew the SSL certificate? It appears to be expired.

I wouldn’t mind, comics are absolutely a form of book. But I’m unsure how successful such communities would be since community subscriptions cannot be migrated on lemmy right now.

Chill with the FUD. As a web host there have been far more cases of random web hosts doors being busted down by the feds for hosting copyrighted material than CSAM they had no reasonable knowledge of.

Yes. They can stress test it if it is not under tight lock and key. It is why these databases are so heavily guarded and every new user for it are heavily vetted.

Yes. But only if you are in the US and get an API key from NCMEC. They are very protective of who gets the keys and require a zoom call as well. There is hope cloudflare will integrate with other countries database as well but we will see. There is also active discussion of deals to provide hash scanning software to fediverse instances more easily as well.

Absolutely but this is a good basis to work from.
