Interesting! Look's really cool

For context, there's a lot that goes on behind the scenes when it comes to lemmy admin stuff especially in the matrix channels. There is a significant frustration and lack of confidence in the lemmy developers at this point. Even those who try to contribute to the project get eventually feeling pushed out.

Welcome to the hell of being a lemmy admin. There's a reason why lemmy admins are fed up with the developers.

Listening to Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of the otherlands! It's so good so far.

Also, we may need to scale up the instance soon. Oof.

With Tumblr the bugs became features, so its only right for the fediverse version to do the same.

Well, please make sure it respects post privacy at least but also realize that on the microblogging side of the fediverse, they may not take kindly to this prospect at all. People who start these kinds of projects are often harassed or at least receive passive hostility. Making it opt in instead out of opt out in some capacity is best.

Please, please, please do not blame yourself for this. This is not your fault. You did what you were supposed to do as a mod and stepped up and asked for help when you needed to, lemmy just needs better tools. Please take care of yourself.

Vile. How filled with hatred do you even have to be to do something so vicious?

Absolutely, literally just swap instances. Hopefully instance migration comes in a similar way that mastodon offers.

What in the hell?

Lemmy.world admins, I am truly asking you to please reflect on how bad this looks. It honestly makes you seem like you can't handle criticism and if people get that vibe they will use it to absolutely fuck with you. I know from my own personal experience. I understand that you're volunteers but this is a step in a very bad direction that will only serve to cause more issues.

The "ight I'm out" ban note was.... hm. Not a great look. Comes across as petty and vindictive.
