A true “They live” vibe, I agree.

I wanted to ask you the difference between social democracy and democratic socialism, but I’m afraid of being angrily condescended too.

This looks like an app version of [email protected] .

Might be a confusion. The self hosted community has such a rule (tagging AI projects in the title). Since this is a post about a self hosted app, people might have thought they were in that community instead.

Where?

Your two first examples are literally a screenshot of a text joke.

The one with the buckets is a loose fit, IMO.

I get your point, I just think the examples you picked work better as counter examples.

Summit is great. On the web, search for remote communities in your own instance server. This will let access the com within your home server, and you should be able to subscribe with a single click.

Open the sidebar, that’s where instance rules live, generally.

Flaws? It’s a feature.

You could format a message with xmpp connection data, so both parties could “dial” and talk, if the client is aware of the format. A bit contrived, but workable.

Well, I think the size of their userbase naturally poses a higher workload for admins and mods. So they naturally will have a lower tolerance for any risqué behavior, by sheer need of expediency dealing with the issues there. So even if a smaller instance shares the rules with them, the way they’d apply the rules are likely to be quite different.

I was going to mention the FAF.

.world has its issues, mostly because of its behemoth size. Not all bans there would necessarily be a great idea to apply on instances that are an order or two of magnitude smaller. Their needs and approaches to moderation differ in enough ways that an auto-copy would probably not be advisable, unless we can reliably categorize them. If we can tell a ban comes because of CSAM, or something like that, that would make sense to immediately copy. But a behavioral / rule break sanction is much more closely tied to the specific instance rules and moderation standard.

I was able to implement community maintained blocklists.

Could you share how? That’s very interesting.

And Pixelfed, Peertube, Bookwyrm, PyLova, WAFRN, Mbin, Loops, Vernissage, … We are legion!

I consider myself quite tech savvy. Some 20 years ago I even coded for the PC, and might have run questionably sourced software a few times. Nowadays, I have a home server, do my tiny bit of tinkering. My current approach to pirated software is “nope”. I find it too much trouble to still not feel safe. If there isn’t an open source alternative, I’ll either cough up the dough for the real deal or go without.

Thanks!

What’s Kioxia?

Did they stutter? Clarifying comment, move on.
