  • Its very common to see Gaza flags in Spain.

    Edit: Palestine flags of course.

  • User profiles are only updated every 24 hours so that is normal. The url parsing is handled in lemmy-ui, you can check the issue tracker or open a pull request.

  • Thats not possible because instances are completely independent from each other, and one one can force admins to do anything (except their local governments and hosting providers). So different instances will always have different standards, and at most other instances can defederate if they disagree.

  • The way I see it funding for Lemmy development is entirely separate from lemmy.ml moderation. That is something for the local admins and users to decide, and they are happy with the status quo.

  • Its definitely a problem. One way to fix it would be for admins to be more strict with the moderators of local communities, and replace them if they go too far. But it seems most admins are quite hands off and prefer to let things run their course.

  • Where am I whining?

  • It seems a lot of people especially from the US are still suffering from red scare propaganda. Anyway its just an avatar to give a human face to my online accounts without using my real face.

  • Thats a character from "Mean Girls"? Never watched that series. Those who abhor lemmy.ml could simply ignore it, there are plenty of tools available. Instead some people spend all day complaining about it. Seems so pointless and exhausing when they could do something useful with their time instead, and post about things that they like.

  • Of the two us us Dessalines is the one who needs funding the least, he was fine with the previous donation amount of 1000 Euros per dev. Im the one who created the call for donations because I have two small children to feed. So whether you donate or not isnt going to change Dessalines' mind at all.

  • Sorry I talked with many dozens of people about this topic and dont remember what you specifically said. In my head it all got mixed together into a single conversation.

    The way I see it, funding for Lemmy development is an entirely separate issue from the moderation of lemmy.ml. The moderation for an instance should only be decided by its local admins and users. Imagine lemmy.ml users going around and saying that lemmy.zip must change this or that thing. You would tell them to mind their own business, and with good reason.

    I found your reply now, here it is. You were asking for lemmy.ml donations to be separate from other donations. This was already addressed long ago, see here.

  • I'm not a lawyer and people don't speak English in my country. So I don't really care how it works on another continent, as long as you get the meaning.

  • Lemmy communities are not businesses, usually they are just hobby projects run by people in their free time. So a closer analogy is that posting in someone's community is like being in their house (or garden). And when you're in someone's house they are free to throw you out for any reason.

  • lemmy instance admin recommended communities

    Also better UX, like lemmy clients with “multireddit” style browsing support.

    Both of these will be available in Lemmy 1.0

  • First you can explain why some people are so obsessed with lemmy.ml that they keep posting about every little thing that happens and even organize a "boycott" (lol). Personally I completely ignore all the politics communities on Lemmy, it's much more relaxed this way.

  • First you people complained that donations were paying for lemmy.ml hosting. As soon as that was addressed you moved the goalposts to something different. Clearly it makes no sense to jump through hoops for people who are never going to donate anyway.

  • It's definitely wrong to say we're poor, no idea where people got that idea. Yet the amount of money we get is very little for a Lead Developer. It also doesn't allow us to pay any additional developers.
