All the arguments were had here: https://sh.itjust.works/post/11011288

Not a sentient pile of alley cats in a trench coat. You ask a lotta questions.

That’s why I use “site:reddit.com” instead of just adding “reddit”
Like ten people in all of the US love Biden, others just understand that he’s the lesser of two evils
Yeah, the mods are the landed gentry
Just fyi, if you do end up making a discussion post in the agora, you should back up claims you make (about posts that are allowed to stay up on the instances, or conversations with their mods/admins, etc) with screen shots. If I were you, I would also talk to one of the agora mods about whether you should make 1 discussion post, or 2 (1 for each instance you want to defederate from). I’m not sure how they’d want to handle it, but I’m pretty sure it would need 2 vote posts so they may want you to split it.
That sounds familiar, thanks
c/main is for instance news and general discussion, while c/agora is for discussion of instance rules and voting
edit: I should explain how the agora works. Any regular user can make a [discussion] post for proposing changes to the rules. Those are open for a week, then the mods of the community make a [vote] posts in which sh.itjust.works users can vote to accept or not accept the rule. That’s also open for a week iirc.
They don’t host illegal (in Canada) content, so the admins haven’t pre-emptively blocked them. There hasn’t been a discussion and vote in c/agora where the users decide to block them, so that hasn’t been done either. There was discussion of it for Hexbear when they first federated with us, but they blocked us after a bit and it was dropped or something, I can’t recall exactly. If it really bothers you, make a discussion post in c/agora.
somewhat related PSA: never use old psu cables with a different model psu. As far as I understand it they aren’t standardized as to which wires connect which pins, so you risk destroying components if you mix and match cables and psu
I was on Team Yuffie until
she stole my fucking materia
imo more scrote than heart
I didn’t cum in your burrito! I wouldn’t do that to you!
What was that? Couldn’t hear you over the layoffs
No way. You’re telling me the afterlife definitely exists, they’ll wish me back to regular life if/when I die, I can make buzzsaws that can cut through anything, I can fly, and I get a shot with Android 18? Fucking sign me up.
While I’d prefer better rail and public transportation infrastructure in America, this is a really cool use case for EVs that I’m excited about. See this video for how this works out in the real world
It is sort-of in the next update. Users can “block” instances, what this means IIRC is that they will not see posts or communities from the blocked instance, however they will still see the blocked instances users posts on communities on other instances, as well as their comments on posts on other instances. This feature should work to block the spam you’re talking about. We haven’t upgraded to that new version on sh.itjust.works yet because it introduced a bug in the federation system that hasn’t been fixed yet.
See the posts column in this screenshot for context:
That testimonial community at the top is the only spamming one as far as I can immediately tell. Every user is able to easily block that community with two clicks. I’m personally not inclined to defederate from an instance without multiple communities/whole instances dedicated to spamming, tons of bots, rampant and/or admin-sanctioned bigotry, rampant trolling, illegal content (that the admins already defederate automatically on their own), or something causing an existential crisis within lemmy (like threads). I don’t think lemmy.staphup.nl qualifies on spamming. If I were admin of that instance, I’d definitely ban the testimonial community though.

It’s the voting community of this instance. Users (or admins) post discussions on rule/policy changes like your post here, they’re discussed for a while, then an admin posts a vote thread for sh.itjust.works users to vote whether we should accept the change. Your post should go there.
To anyone reading this, do you find yourself unable to keep from nodding off in the middle of the day? You might have sleep apnea. If you can see a doctor, you should. I got a cpap and it changed my life. I went from being able to fall asleep anywhere at any time (and having to take a nap on my lunch break), to being truly well-rested every day for the first time in years.
It’s great when dystopic defense contractors take names from the things I love! Palmer Luckey started one called Anduril, and I just can’t tell you how much I love these fucking shits co-opting Tolkien’s words in their endeavors to profit on oppression and murder.
