it’s been deployed

Lemmy has a feature for taglines where you’ll see a random one on every refresh. We used to have a selection of a few communities in there, but at this time we don’t have anyone available who has spare time to maintain this. We’re open to suggestions or even someone joining e.g. our matrix and we’ll be happy to set up a group chat for collecting communities and adding/rotating them in our list.

This is instance specific, so each instance has to maintain this on their end.

At the moment we have only !newcommunities@lemmy.world and !communitypromo@lemmy.ca in the list.

looks like the mod addition didn’t federate to us for some reason. i’ve added your LW account as mod now.

Hi,

could you please clarify what you mean by error page? What exactly are you seeing?

thanks for the reminder, it’s updated now

Hello,

we can mark your community as locally hidden, which will prevent non-subscribed users from seeing it. This is however only a local thing and will not affect users on other instances. It will therefore also prevent discovery, as it’s not only removing posts from a feed, but also removing the entire community from being seen anywhere unless accessed directly.

this already exists in user settings:

you can find this at https://lemmy.world/settings

This doesn’t really solve the problem. This person used to scramble/delete their own content in the past before they went to delete the entire accounts.

They’re a rather persistent ban evader who can’t accept not being welcome in some spaces on the internet. Even before they started deleting accounts they already used multiple accounts to evade bans.

I’d be happy to hear suggestions for addressing this without essentially banning all new accounts. Preventing new accounts from participating will only result in them aging accounts for a bit before usage and discouraging legitimate new users from participating.

Hi,

this community is primarily intended for support topics related to this instance, not about general Lemmy topics.

I’d recommend a more general Lemmy/Lemmy moderation community instead, such as one of these (some of them seem to be dead, but a crosspost probably wouldn’t be an issue):

• !moderators@lemmy.world
• !mods@lemmy.world
• !lemmy@lemmy.ml
• !lemmy@lemmy.world

reset federation failures for both dubvee.org and piefed.social, it’s sending again. thanks for the report.

unfortunately i don’t see anything useful in the lemmy logs that would indicate why this has happened.

can you please share the ray id shown by cloudflare? alternatively please send me your ip in a pm.

jordan is also saying that “from the river to the sea” is a call for genocide? if so, please provide a reference

thanks for flagging this, we’ll have to do some research on this phrase. I don’t know the exact details of its usage yet.

how long users should expect

i expect that we get the consequences sorted out before the end of this week.

there’s another high level lw person here acting similarly to the mod in question

would you mind adding some context to this?

Jordan no longer has any responsibilities or privileges beyond being a community moderator at this time.

The original description of our community teams can be found here, but over time this has changed a bit. We’re looking to have this more clearly defined again and are talking to the two active members of the team to figure out a good way forward. Currently, this includes for example reviewing communities with unresolved reports that keep piling up, trying to find new moderators for those communities, and it can also include helping out with instance bans to provide more coverage throughout the day when trolls or spammers show up.

As far as transparency is concerned, there’s still a lot of room for improvement, especially on the timing aspect. We’ve also had more reports in the past about Jordan, but they were either resulting in internal conversations or not necessarily enough to take further actions.

that community primarily is people reporting on behavior of moderators that they disagree with

it’s a range of private and public reports, some of the public ones can be found in !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com.

we’re still working on this, you can find our update here: https://lemmy.world/post/36621226

unfortunately it’s still not finished, but we have an update here now: https://lemmy.world/post/36621226

i tend to be too optimistic on the timelines in which we get things done, especially when they are moderation related. we have just published an official update on the current situation: https://lemmy.world/post/36621226
