I saw this post which is completly unrelated to me making this post btw.
The way you sync communities makes a lot of sense when you only want to subscribe to certain communities, but when you want to see what’s going on lemmy it’s bad. When I scroll through all can’t shake the feeling that I could be not seeing some interesting posts. This is not only a problem that small instances have. I checked lemmy.ml and it had some posts missing from all: new that we can see. But this could also be because of defederating.
This problem is even worse with nsfw communities. They don’t show up when not logged in, so looking on other instances is useless. And the community search site in the sidebar doesn’t work well and doesn’t show nsfw, although lemmyverse.net works fine.
So what I’m saying is who on this instance is going to subcribe to furry porn, jk
I apologize but I’m finding it tougher and tougher to want to hold dialogue with someone who is skeptical of seemingly everything.
Skepticism is healthy and should be exercised whenever the situation calls for it, but it’s also tiring when the footwork is minimal to disprove it. This is not aimed solely at you; we’ve tried to be as transparent as possible and last week it’s suggested perhaps we allowed a vulnerability to be exploited to push communities on people and everything is always met with this air of disbelief. Soren works full time and made this because he believes it’s necessary in his offtime, for you. I work full time and try to assist with the social aspect of it because I believe in him and this. I only try to do things to make it easier or better, or clearer for people – that’s it. There isn’t even a point to trying to have an ulterior motive here.
I’m sorry, I can be too skeptical a lot of the time, yes. And I should have just not written the first part of my previous comment. It’s not as informative and funny as I thought.
I think yall are doing good with the transparency. Has anyone unjokingly suggested that random subscriptions were caused by an admins deliberate actions?
I didn’t want to call anyone out with this post. I know that a lot of things on lemmy are due to circumstances that might get better as lemmy matures.
I and presumably most people here are thankful for your work admins.
What did the deleted posts say? It looks like the user just nuked their account…
Not sure what happened to justdrop :( he nuked his account and also cannot reach him on discord anymore. I hope he is okay.
