Technical question 1: as an alternative to a full block, is there a way to “soft block”, or tag, or whatever, some people, to act as a sort of CW?

Not ideal, but Sync for Lemmy premium (ultra) has a custom tagging/highlighting feature. Not sure about other apps. It’s subscription or a large lifetime payment. But there is cloud syncing (and other features).

Which phone?

That doesn’t justify it…

I don’t even see how it’s possible to stop someone from using social media until they’re 18 unless they truly don’t want to.

Thank you.

I’m not sure actually, but that’s a good idea.

How does that relate to staying defederated then? Or are you calling for more of it? I don’t care either way, just curious.

That’s still “all”. Sync just calls it everything.

but that’s still beehaw

If you’re signed into Beehaw you won’t see lemmy.world content anywhere (including in all/everything).

If you sign with an account from somewhere else that “everything” feed will be different.

“Local” is communities only from your signed in instance. “All” will include posts from communities anyone from your instance has subscribed to (and they can only subscribe to communities from federated instances).

I’m not sure. Once the connection has been made I’d assume it stays but I haven’t verified.

Who’s demanding anything? Surely we can discuss it amongst ourselves as a community?

I do. I generally don’t have problems on lemmy.world communities. I’d just understand the hesitation to refederate. To me if that’s on the table I think it’d make sense to do one at a time, and if one has to be first it should be the smaller one.

Not my comment, I was just quoting it here since the original commenter linked to their comment on kbin which isn’t terribly useful to users here. You’d have to ask @[email protected]

I agree. I haven’t noticed anything from lemm.ee in my casual browsing.

Very prescient

Do they have reasonable competitors? I see them used so much.

Let’s all just use IPs

In nearly 17 years at Valve, Wood helped build and ship the company’s most notable titles, including Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Portal 2, CS:GO and both episodes of Half-Life 2. He was a founding member of the CS:GO project and worked on that series for six years; he was pivotal in crafting Portal 2’s co-op mode, and he created choreography and combat scenes in Half-Life and Left 4 Dead. Level design was one of his specialties.

You have my attention.

“It really is more about cozy exploration,” Wood told Engadget. “The game has aspects of platforming, but it’s very light platforming. It’s more about exploring vertically, and exploring nooks and crannies. I’ve done a lot of things throughout my career, but one of the things I spent a lot of time doing was level design in video games, so I have a lot of personal interest in creating spaces that feel fun to explore, to sort of poke around in.”

The comment would be more useful if you linked to the threads you reference in it.

There was a thread dunking on Nazis and an admin came in, locked the thread and told people to be nice to everyone regardless of their ideology. They refused to defederate from exploding heads for a very long time, preemptively defederated from hexbear (whatever your thoughts about the instance it’s deeply weird they didn’t want to defed the Nazis but immediately defederated from the weirdo lefties)

The guy who blew the whistle on the piracy forums was an out and obvious nazi. They didn’t ban him after his obvious naziness went on display.

It’s not really an outlandish thing to suggest. They clearly are much more biased towards fascists than leftists, at the very least - which is highly questionable and problematic on a leftist-literally-by-design site.

And, it’s only communities someone on beehaw has specifically subscribed to. Communities from federated instances won’t show up in all if no one from beehaw has ever subscribed to them.
