“Oi, 'scuse me mate, have you got a wank loicence for that file system?”

Because I too am a billionaire fascist.

Or possibly slightly more likely its just pulling rss feeds.

Lemmy.zip has a moderation policy under our Code of conduct.

FYI my reply is above Blaze

We’ve had an chat internally and decided that we’d be happy with a community that separates HP from JKR as long as it was properly moderated in line with its purpose.

The suggestion allows for a community on another instance where JKR could be discussed in relation to HP. The merits of such a community are obvious, however we don’t agree that the subject matters can’t be discussed separately, if there was a demand for that community to exist.

So, we would be happy with a community to specifically discuss HP, if such a community was to be opened.

Constantly tired and constantly being screamed at, but its all good thank you 🤣

Yeah spot on, it’s complicated by me being a UK resident and also the owner, and so the only way to protect the site without introducing age verification and AI monitoring (which are dystopian measures, not to mention incredibly expensive) without changing aspects of the site, is to just not provide a service to the UK users.

If I wasn’t in the UK, I’d just ignore this act like every other admin and service does.

That works! First time I’ve seen it happen tbh, saw it was throwing some errors and did some digging :)

Thanks for updating!

Hey, just FYI that you’ve used the slrpnk proxied image here, so the image is double proxied over to other instances, and won’t show up if they’re proxying it too. I’d recommend switching the image link to https://images2.imgbox.com/ce/a7/69MRkLZq_o.jpg

This game defined my childhood. Guess its time to relive it.

What a blast from the past

@Sunshine@lemmy.ca thanks for cursing lemmy.zip 😭

We have a hook into the account creation process via the api, and when a new accout is created we basically mimic the user inserting personal instance blocks directly in the db. We also pm new users on account creation so we include info on how to remove the blocks there. It’s about the best in-the-middle solution i can do at the moment!

I agree fully with you around the moderation tools built in - it really needs some development. We do a lot via our bot to try and provide some better tooling and especially focus on the onboarding part of a new user. I think 1.0 includes some improvements here.

I can’t say how effective all of this work has been for user retention, but I’m hoping it helps get a few people away from reddit!

(just to chime in uninvited to say that we have a bit of code that inserts blocks for hexbear and lemmygrad for new users, so the new user has the option to remove the block and see that sort of content if they want to - we’re all about choice!)

Good point - we don’t really have a space for this. We kind of use !home for most things, and i wouldn’t moderate a post from an external user if there was a technical issue. So !home is probably the best place. (I’ll update the description to reflect)

I will have a think about a support community but home is fine for now :) thanks for checking!

!home@lemmy.zip

Or PM an admin :)

That’s neat, nice find!

I imagine it truly won’t change anything. Some of the major challenges to the UK health sector is social care, in which there is very little focus, with each area responsible for its own arrangements already.

With an aging population, the system just can’t cope. Social care is already massively supported by overseas workers coming to the UK, mainly because of the piss poor wages and shit working conditions.

This isn’t going to magically create more beds in hospitals, and so the continual downfall of the NHS will continue.

It is obviously more complex than that, but finding the resources to accomodate the challenges of an aging population are a large part of the problem.

Maybe, just mayb,e this would free up the money to invest into these areas, but with another government pushing austerity it just isn’t going to happen.

No, you have a fundamental misunderstanding of how federation works.

The user is on lemm.ee. When they make a post, they’re posting to a local copy of the community, and never directly onto the server. Thats not how federation works and so your points are all totally invalid.

At no point does the user ever make contact themselves with that external server. They never physically touch lemmy.world in their actions, everything they do is on lemm.ee, and so lemm.ee’s Terms of Service is the one that applies to the user.

As has already been hashed out multiple times, Lemmy.world’s ToS is not relevant here and does not apply to an external user.

This is totally up for debate, and you don’t understand it. That’s fine, learn from people who do know and take it with some humility.

Oh and if you still don’t get why its important and how wrong you are - if you were right, then every single post you make is federated to thousands of different fedi servers. Suddenly, you would be legally in contract with all those thousands of servers and their ToS. Imagine if I put in mine that users have to pay a small sum of currency for every post that they make on my server. In your incorrect definition, you would be liable for that just like lemmy.world have applied their ToS against someone who isn’t one of their users.

What lemmy.world should do is update their moderation policies/code of conduct/whatever to specifically say that they will ban you if they suspect you are under 18. Its such an easy fix. This never had to be so wrong in the first place.
