  • [Resolved] Outbound federation issues

    Jump

  • I'm not sure what exactly you're referring to, but this issue seems to have been introduced in 0.19.16.

  • Removed

    Maybe you've heard this story before

  • that's a great way to say piefed.social does that as well

  • ZippyBot should be blockable

  • this is not in any way related to lemmy.world

  • [resolved/non-issue] I was just banned from Lemmy.World and I am very confused. How do I figure out why?

    Jump

  • you linked to a shady domain that lots of bots linked to in the past

  • since this post wasn't to a LW community the removal didn't federate. to see the full picture of our automod actions you have to look at the modlog at the source instance.

    the post you created that was removed here was linking to a domain that has been massively spammed by bots in the past, which is why it's in our automod blacklist.

    as others already pointed out, you've been unbanned already when we saw the automod notification. you can also find contact in our instance sidebar:

    i don't have any evidence whether this domain has been spammed on behalf of the website owners, or whether this was a third party trying to frame them, but since there were no or almost no legitimate links to this domain before the spam bots i'm inclined to believe that this is a very shady website that should be avoided in any case.

  • all content is generally owned by its creator and only the creator can change it. for lemmy 1.0 this will be changing for marking as nsfw and managing tags, so it seems that this is somewhat being relaxed.

    how much is that in €?

  • Hello,

    the community has been transferred over to you.

    The spam account has also been nuked earlier today.

  • Lemmy needs real deletion, not just soft‑delete/hiding

    Jump

  • A user‑level version of that, or a proper “deleted” ActivityPub signal, would give people far more control than the current soft‑delete model.

    This quite literally already exists.

    When you delete posts, comments or PMs, the ActivityPub message is a deletion. How other servers handle this depends on the software, some immediately delete the data, others will retain it for some time and trigger a delayed deletion. Others may not delete it at all. Likewise, if you delete your profile in Lemmy, you have the option to select whether your content should get deleted along with it.

    With Lemmy, some of these actions are not always instantly deleting data from the database. For example, if you delete a post or comment, you still have the option to undelete it to restore the original content. From a moderation perspective, it is crucial to not purge everything from the DB without a trace immediately, as this would easily allow abuse by bad actors.

  • New anti-bot rules

    Jump

  • at this point they're long past the point where they'd be tolerated here to keep a single account. they're constantly impersonating and harassing other people, they need the new accounts to be able to evade bans.

  • New anti-bot rules

    Jump

  • it just takes one mentally ill person to make it their hobby to harass people on the internet

  • New anti-bot rules

    Jump

  • only the person creating a post can mark their own account as bot or change the title

  • feel free to get in touch with us if you have issues with api limits. we can't change them for individual users but we may be able to give you advice on more efficient usage.

    your bot shouldn't be logging in every time it checks what is going on; it's best to persist the JWT you get from logging in and keep using it. the signup/login rate limit (which for whatever reason has the same counter) is relatively low to limit abuse, but the other endpoints should be more relaxed. you'd also have to hit pretty high request counts for us to even look at it. i recommend using a separate bot account (see bot rules).

  • Hello,

    most reports will only be seen by community moderators on our instance. We're typically seeing about 100-200 post/comment reports on any given day, and we don't have the capacity to look at all of them on admin level. If you need to report something to our admin team the best option is to message @lwreport@lemmy.world, which will go straight to our admin team. This does however not make Lemmy's built-in reports useless. Lemmy does not store an edit history for posts and comments currently, but your report stores a snapshot of the contents at that point in time in our DB, which we can look up even if the community moderator resolved the report already.

    The user is now banned and the community removed.

  • we could probably lock communities on instances that no longer exist, that would solve that. i'll see if i can find some time to look into that.

  • thanks, feddit.de and lemm.ee are now defederated.

    lemm.one doesn't seem to be a thing. if you're referring to lemmy.one, that one has been defederated due to lack of moderation a long time ago

  • I recently switched over from Lemmy.World, to Piefed.World, and I have been having issues.

    Jump

  • performance should already have improved a bit on certain queries, is this noticeable?

    there are still a number of slow queries, but they'll probably have to wait for the weekend.
