I don’t think a single Reddit ‘power user’ moved to the Fediverse.

That’s why a swath of us left Reddit in the first place, isn’t it?

No. I don’t think many people left Reddit for a desire to post in a ‘free speech absolutist’ instance.

I can think of many other reasons why many people left Reddit. One of which is that it isn’t moderated efficiently enough.

I think the Fediverse has largely lost the script and the plot entirely. If you want a more better experience on the Fediverse, stop installing crybaby over-sensitive mods.

You know the Fediverse is comprised of different instances that exercise different levels of control over local community moderators, right?

I don’t know what “substitute thorns (th) to spite a member of the community who uses them” means here

I am confused as to what you are getting at here. Piefed crossposts display post content from different communities separately within a link post that is crossposted.

Crossposting visibility is a pretty normal tool that should be on by default. It helps communities grow.

It won’t work. The user is talking about accounts that are masquerading as actual users, so they would not be identifying themselves as such.

It’s not as if anyone is /allowing/ these bot posts by the way. They are being banned when they’re spotted.

I have no idea why they allow bots. Usually websites are trying to get rid of bots, but I guess it’s backwards on Reddit and lemmy

The etiquette on Lemmy/Piefed is that bots are tagged as bots. I doubt anyone would allow a bot larping as a user.

Apparently there was some harassment allegations against the lead.

Each instance will have its own policies and systems. I can’t speak for blahaj.zone.

That might be possible. Rimu could add filters into community settings to hide crossposts.

Oh I agree, it wasn’t explained (how could it be explained, to be fair) but they didn’t drop it is what I mean

?

To be fair, HBO is a better fit for this than Netflix or Amazon would be.

I don’t get how you think its centralised here. What code are you referring to?

This would mean a fundamental change to how both Lemmy and Piefed work.

I think you may be overestating the amount of crossposts that happen for the idea that it would somehow cause ‘monoculturalism’

Alternative suggestion - allow communities to block crossposting functionality with specified communities in the community settings.

I thought the video was about “watercooler” TV. The stuff people watched in en masse and then discussed the next day at the office/school/whatever.

Kind of. Yes, but it’s more droning than that. The guy goes on and on about the history of successful tv shows on network TV from the late 1970s to idk when he stops, I stopped listening. Maybe late 2000s probably.

Piefed splits up the comment boxes based on community when a thread is crossposted, so you can still distinguish between the comment boxes on different communities despite them being visible.

That said, a potential future option here would be a community opt-out of crosspost functionality in this way
