has led to a lot of the same moderation rot on Lemmy

Almost as if the platform wasn’t the problem.

No, why? That is an utterly stupid idea. No-one should be able to edit some else’s posts. Even more: posts should be audit-proof.

If a post contains content that is not allowed, the post should be deleted, that’s it.

Short answer: no

Long answer: no, but longer

Ah yes, the good old “testing in production” 😆

Good luck!

The first time they got banned.

Post rating is good already. Upvote button, score, downvote button. This could be same for comments, but horizontal. And on hover just show upvotes and downvotes individually as it’s done for posts already.

You people just need accept the fact, that it is not “THE xyz community on Lemmy” but just “one of the xyz communities using Lemmy”.

but you can change them for yourself.

Exactly.

It depends on your sorting option.

Unlike on Reddit.

Fortunately upvotes/downvotes on Lemmy do not affect visibility.

Monetizing something ruins it.

No, thank you. Let’s keep that on Reddit.

While SHA1 might be considered problematic security-wise

That’s a huge understatement.

SHA-1 was cryptographically broken over 20 years ago and should not be used anymore.

You can hover the vote counter with your mouse cursor and a tooltip appears showing you the numbers for upvotes and downvotes.

This and the instance-blocking are welcome changes.

The people at lemmygrad, kbin, and hexbear will be so mad about that!

ipv6 only

You successfully identified your problem.

We have the blue corner we have the OSU logo, we have the German flag, and we have the crewmates. This feels complete, yes.

The fact that people were registering .ml domains for projects like this is mindboggling. There are many TLDs to pick from without infringing on the terms of use of a country-specific one.

Quoted for emphasis.

Seems like it replaces .. with … (a distinct typographic character that is called ellipsis, not just “a third dot” – and this could be relevant)

While it may seem nice

No, it really doesn’t, its a horribly bad design choice. Especially on a “more tech focused” where two dots are used to represent the previous directory.

Also: An editor should not change the input of the user. If someone wants to write 2 dots, the editor should not force an ellipsis.

I wonder if there’s a programmatic way to detect these bots?

Technically there is. Bot accounts can be market as bot accounts and you can decide to show bot accounts. There are buttons for this in the settings.

But if bots are not marked as bots, there is no way.
