Why is the culture of hate growing on Lemmy? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

What's with all the downvotes? I swear there has to be vote manipulation going on with some of these threads.

Itt, I struck a chord? Not sure why I'm being downvoted.

It's a community only instance. If two big instances defederate from each other, then those users can still visit the same old community. I also don't have to follow any rules set by admin which don't really apply to dull content in the first place. Plus I just like growing the fefiverse and the idea of decentralization.

If I subacribe or visit any communities elsewhwere then those will show on the all feed on my instance. So I just have an admin account over there.

It gives you a bit more freedom in that you can federate or defederate with whatever instance you want, you can make your own communities that are free from other instance admin descisions like fed/defed. Less risk of losing your account.

I own dullsters.net but I keep it "pure" by not using that account out here. That way any outside visitor to the site only sees dull stuff.

For me it has been very little work. We'll see how the 1.0 update goes.

My so is a teacher and they have some rough days, but I swear they love those kids more than me. Sometimes they get reccognized in public and it's like they're a minor celebrity.

User banned by instance mod shows "Banned by moderator" on mine. (lemmy.world)
 

I saw that a user was banned by moderator on my instance and their comments removed. I don't have a moderator, it's just me, I'm the only user. I thought I accidently fumble fingrred the ban button and restored their comments and appologize. Come to find out that they were banned from their own instance.

I'm not sure how I feel about that. On one hand it's good if it's a really bad user posting spam or worse. On the other hand it is a conduit for censorship. If an admin doesn't like what you post on another instance, then they can censor you everywhere. On top of that, it makes it look like I am banning people, and I don't like that at all if they're just making normal comments. It should say something else and I should get some kind of alert that lets me know so that I can decide if the comments on my instance are appropriate.

I created an instance for a specific community (lemmy.world)
 

I created [email protected] a few months ago and then started seeing contraversies around moderation policies and federation that just don't apply to the type of content on dull mens club so I decided to make an instance solely to host that community.

[email protected]

I'm not sure if this has happened yet, but I like the idea of having a neutral instance that users can still visit regardless of what happens. There's no user signups, only admin/moderator accounts. Users have to use an account from a federated instance.

I created [email protected] (lemmy.world)
 

I created the popular [email protected] several months ago.

In the interest of decentralization, I decided to create an independent instance.

The dull mens club community will stay active, but please visit us at the new one.

I created a Lemmy instance and the future of this community. (lemmy.world)
 

I've created a new Lemmy instance at dullsters.net

When I created this community several months ago I had no aspirations of it becoming much of anything. In a short amount of time it has grown to over 1500 subscribers and is one of the top recommended non-political communities. I am always looking forward to the posts that are shared here, and the unique culture being developed.

I see the importance of the decentralized aspect of the Fediverse. We frequently see drama surrounding moderation and federation policies. None of that applies to the content in this community.

I have no qualms with admins running their site the way they want to and they are often placed in difficult positions. However, this is one of the true places of neutrality on the Fediverse and it should remain that way.

In the few months this community has existed there have been maybe a half dozen moderation actions taken. You have remained, for the most part, very dull, and I thank you for that.

The name of the community should be changed, I hadn't realized that dull men's club was the result of someone else's ideas and work. The new name should represent this community that you all have created and the place it exists, The Fediverse.

The new instance won't have any users except for the purpose of moderation, you will still use your account from a federated instance. I'm still ironing out a few wrinkles with the site, it should be done whenever I get around to it.

In the meantime suggestions for the new name should be made in a top level comment so that they can be voted on.

Thank you all once again for making this community what it is.

How to get email to work? (lemmy.world)
 

Do I need to do anything to get emails to send from my lemmy instance? I have the site up and running, but emails won't send. I'm using Digital Ocean as my server provider.

Difference in config.hjson with ansible [Solved] (lemmy.world)

Edit: the issue was cloudflare proxy. If you're using cloudflare for dns, turn off proxying if you're using lets encrypt.

I must be doing something wrong, because when i run the playbook I get an unconfigured nginx page at the ip of my server.

The instruction docs for ansible states:

Do not edit anything inside the {{ }} braces.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/blob/main/examples/config.hjson

however that config file points to:

The dullest day is upon us. (lemmy.world)
 

Tomorrow (Saturday) will be the December Solstice. The "shortest" day in the northern hemisphere and "longest" day in the southern hemisphere. Although it will be the day with the least amount of light for many of you, it means that each day after will be brighter. For others each day will be shorter, and thus duller. For places near the equator the change will be negligible throughout the year. Of course if you live near either of Earth's poles you will need to wait a few months to see the change.

I wish you all a very dull and uneventful day.
