So if I understand correctly then, if a mod from here flags this comment as being in violation, and deletes it:

All other instances have to download that decision and delete the comment from their own servers? That seems like a looot of data transfer

Damn! Seeing it happen to/r/mildlyinteresting is what made me eventually sign up here! This is just reiterating that decision.

I wonder how many other people are going to do the same thing I did

Here meaning TIHI@kbin.social? How do I sub or join or whatever it is I do now?

Instead each instance is responsible to create and enforce its own moderation policy. This means that two Lemmy instances can have rules that completely disagree or even contradict. This can lead to problems if they interact with each other, because by default federation is open to any instance that speaks the same protocol. To handle such cases, administrators can choose to block federation with specific instances. To be even safer, they can also choose to be federated only with instances that are allowed explicitly.

This is really what I’m not quite getting though. I understand (I think) how defederation works at a server (instance) level, but assume I call you a slur here.

The way that ☝️ is written implies that a moderator from each instance that federates with this one will need to moderate this comment separately… Which seems wasteful

Thanks, I think this might be why I can’t find it. Will have another look in the morning

Someone please gild this!

The thing that I’ve seen pretty consistently from both RIF and Apollo devs is that they’re not disputing the fact that reddit needs to start making a profit. Nobody’s (seriously) complaining about what was free becoming not free.

The fact is, if this was purely about money, they’d be willing to negotiate on price. The price they’re asking is ~70x more than imgur, which hosts images WAAAAAY heavier to host than text, and links etc.

If it was solely about showing ads, they could have given 3PAs access to reddit ads via the api, and enforced showing them.

There are several ways this could have worked for everyone.

Reddit wanted to kill 3PAs. That’s the only logical conclusion here. Hell, if they’d come out and said THAT, as well as fixing the problems with their own app first, I might even have been able see their side of it. I would still be pissed, but it’d be more understandable than this very blatant Twitter-esque death-by-pricing thing they’re trying to do.

TIHI mods have moved here btw: TIHI@kbin.social

I’m seeing clumps from the same community/magazine all grouped together when sorted by “active”

My best guess is that the data is transferred across instances in chunks and I’m seeing the content in those chunks! It’s far from a deal breaker but there’s definitely room for improvement!

I’m far from any kind of authority on this, but I think you’ll find the similarities in language (like ma mama mom mum mother mummy) come from the fact that very many languages today stem from the same root languages.

What I find far more interesting is where they diverge.

Wtf!

Edit: I’ve just remembered reading that “mama” and “papa” come from the sounds that babies make naturally…
