MODERATOR OF
 

Here's how things will go:

1.) I will prioritize users that were/are engaging with this community in on-topic manner.

2.) I will prioritize users that don't have (much) controversial history.

3.) I will prioritize users that have regular activity on their account to make sure things will be actually moderated.

4.) I will prioritize users that don't moderate many communities.

5.) You can share something simple about what would you like to do with the community. For example keeping it like it was so far and just moderating titles, spam, and some posts that really lack any 'hmmm' value. Or changing the rules a bit and adding "nothing political" alongside other things. Up to you to share your views. I don't expect anything long, just something short and on point.

6.) I will not pay attention to the votes on applications although I may look into it if the user gets downvoted to see if there's a reason.

7.) I will pick 2 moderators next day to ensure a better moderation coverage. Doesn't matter if those mods decide to recruit some other users from the application.

Would be good if at least one mod had an account on LW because there are report federation issues (should be fixed in lemmy v1) and mod action taking issues. For example I can't moderate or demote someone using an account that's on a remote instance to the community AFAIK. Other actions like content removals/bans should work but who knows when even if the OP themselves removes the post it can have a federation hiccup and not federate to other instances.

Oooh, now I can see it. Now it fits in my eyes.

This is what I was referring to, your understanding is distorted because BOTH fall under the discoverability. You're bending the reality around you so that it fits your agenda ignoring literally anything that is said to you. The communities aren't forced upon you either as it's you choosing which feeds you follow the exact same way posts are added to a community you follow so they're not forced upon you buddy. Or what, should we get rid of communities as well? XDD Let's go back to microblogging where we can scream into the void that we can't navigate through due to almost nothing of organisation besides the tags maybe that can't even be moderated unlike communities/feeds. I guess we should get rid of the concept of tags too given your perspective on organisaton and discoverability of things you're interested in? Some of your points are valid but a lot of them are incoherent and ignore reality. Some of the suggestions are terrible for everyone out there too due to ignoring of that reality. I'd work great if the world worked the way you perceive it through your mind though.

Wish you luck. I wish I could donate but I'm broke. lol

I'm promoting the app every chance I have though.

That's some really distorted understanding of "discoverability" that you have in your head. Sorry for your loss. :(

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

That's just an obscure meme. You wouldn't use it as a reaction to something that you can commonly use.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Alright, in what realistic situation can this be used as a reaction meme? (I'm not going to take it down because I don't care anymore.)

I don't really want the gesture colors to reflect vote colors regardless of what I set it too. It's just that with vote colors you have an option to swap colors for them and I'm requesting the ability to swap colors of gesture colors for voting as well.

Your suggestion would be much more flexible/powerful and comfortable to use though as it's hard to get the wanted color correctly and repeat it as well. But what comes with it I assume there's more work for it?

I hope I'm clear now. :)

(Yesterday I converted someone into using this app and they love it a lot. Today I changed the text size for posts by accident when looking through the settings for something and it applied on the spot. I think it would be great to apply settings only when pressing "save settings" button or a way to revert settings to the previous ones you had maybe. The button sounds simpler. I was lucky to have a backup from sharing the settings with that person though.)

How'd you follow a feed to regularly visit if not without subscribing to it? The person you responded to complained that communities may get unwanted traffic if they were included in bad feeds. So while you suggested subscribers only comments and it would work for 'all' feed to filter out low effort trolls it wouldn't work with feeds where they are already subscribed to it.

Just like with communities where you don't look them up each time you want to see their content and you subscribe to them to have them easily accessible on you subscribed list or in subscribed feed the same would go for feeds.

I may have missed your subtle suggestion somewhere about changing the behavior of feeds in which case the feature would check out although that would cause some friction still when it comes to ease of interaction.

E:

I mean if you click on subscribe, to subscribe to all the communities within, that’s kind of intended behaviour?!

The conversation isn't about fair users anyway. If someone comes in without care about community talking bs then it wouldn't matter if you gave them option to avoid it because they would do it anyway. Just like people don't bother with block feature which there always was.

restrict commenting or voting to subscribers only.

Feeds subscribe you to those communities. Maybe if the feature didn't do that it would make more sense but with the current way things work it would require a different solution. Personally I strongly believe in granular control over to which feeds the community gets added with default opt-in where mods can react if something unwanted starts happening.
