Way to turn the communist acheivement of women's empowerment into something negative.

Once its mature, I personally wouldn't be opposed to moving issue tracking off github and into a federated one like forgejo.

Sure, and be sure to link that closed github issue.

This is helpful. Could you make a github issue and copy-paste this there? Thx.

I think slur filters, tracking param removals, and local link rewriting are acceptable, because (with the exception of the slur filter) they're non-moderation actions, and also applied uniformly regardless of who made them.

It also ignores that savvy-enough admins can edit user content with SQL queries.

That's unavoidable of course, anyone with DB access ultimately can edit things. But if people catch on, I doubt your server would gain many users or last that long. Most importantly, we shouldn't allow that to happen via the API.

You're free to start a "Should mods be able to edit user's data?" discussion, but I doubt it would get much support, especially from reddit allowing this and it souring everyone to it.

Thx! Hard to pick a fav, but meercats are pretty cool.

Thx! Really appreciate it, and I'm glad someone thinks its worthwhile work we're doing.

You can just use magnet links. I wrote a guide for how to use them here

Like here's a Joan Crawford movie I like: Sudden Fear 1952 . A super-beginner way, is to install stremio and click that link. Boom, you're now watching the movie.

We have an issue discussing non-local community discovery here.

My vote there is to extend our lemmy-stats-crawler to crawl communities also, host that file somewhere, and build in a scheduled job to refetch and populate missing communities periodically. Its centralized, but if that file is unavailable, it wouldn't break anything.

Who controls this universal community name system?

Editing posts - the main issue is misleading titles

Moving posts to different communities

You can read over the discussion here, but we will never allow mods or admins to act as / impersonate users, or edit their content.

We also can't rewrite history in the fediverse (unlike a forum) so "moving" a post would also entail deleting and recreating content other people made.

Splitting comments into separate posts

Merging posts

These ones sound really strange, but its similar, I don't want mods to be able to rewrite user history or move it.

IP check

We don't store IPs so that'd be impossible.
