  • We are aware of the limitations of emoji, thanks. We too have functional minds with thoughts.

    You are welcome to continue using Lemmy which doesn't have emoji, no one is imposing emoji on you.

    Also I've just added a way for PieFed users to report AI content without relying on emoji.

  • tagging AI content posts

    Jump

  • When you report a post, there is now a new option that relates to AI posts that need flair added to them. In PieFed communities this works as normal but if it's a Lemmy community then the admins of your PieFed instance will get a notification so they can apply the flair that Lemmy cannot.

  • I have added that emoji now, you can find it on the 'custom' tab.

  • Workflow for Users With Posts Deleted and Other Thoughts

    Jump

  • There's definitely more we should be doing to notify people when a post is deleted. Yes. It hasn't been super high priority as the people who get their posts deleted tend to be a pain in the ass.

    I don't think many communities have enough activity to be able to automatically detect stress levels based on the mod log. That'd be a good problem to have, it means we're busy!

  • First time here: What are some tips or rules I should know?

    Jump

  • If you get banned from a lemmy.ml community don't be concerned, it's a rite of passage.

  • Welcome!

  • Votes are pointless if they can't be filtered

    Jump

  • In PieFed, when you block someone they don't see your posts or comments. So they can't vote on it either.

    The best I can do for you @iloveDigit@piefed.social is make it so that votes from blocked people on Lemmy (which does show your posts to people you blocked) are not accepted. Making votes public so you can go down the rabbit hole of policing the votes on everything is not going to happen.

    Please remember that we are building PieFed at significant personal cost and giving it away for the good of everyone. That comes with limitations on how much time we can put into it and how many people we can satisfy. There just isn't time to build every possible feature and some features would negate the value and purpose of other features.

    We're doing our best here but if you don't like it you have other places you can go.

  • We did this to ourselves here

    Jump

  • Even if fedi was pure and perfect, it still exists within a wider ecosystem of algo-driven rage and it's influence leaks in from every side. It's not just that we don't exclusively get our news from the fedi it's that news articles themselves are optimized for rage, the writers are deeply under it's spell, politician's media strategy is optimized for it.

  • I created a dedicated Show & Tell community for showing off personal projects

    Jump

  • Are there "big accounts" on the threadiverse?

    Jump

  • Yes that is the crucial difference. Without followers determining your reach, every post earns it's upvotes on an equal footing with the others, regardless of author.

    It's a much better system.

    Follower-based networks like Mastodon and Twitter inevitably end up with a handful of people dominating the space because their posts get boosted which gets them more followers which gets them more boosts etc in a spiraling way. This attracts narcissists and drama queens.

  • Where should the line be drawn for using the "AI generated" check box?

    Jump

  • I don't know either. Let's leave it to the mods to figure out, hopefully they know more about their subject than I ;-)

    We have decades of practice distinguishing between NSFW and SFW and it's still not fully resolved so this could take a while.

  • Where should the line be drawn for using the "AI generated" check box?

    Jump

  • Instead of using a checkbox I considered having a slider so people could choose various values in between no and yes. But that would have been confusing...

    I think it'll come down to whatever the mods in each community want and there will be significant variation to that.

    IMO your process does not reach the threshold of AI Generated because you're just using it as a short-cut for some of the steps and you still have your hands on the wheel. Unlike this which was probably just someone prompting "gimme a cute hamster with a helmet".

  • What communities should I recommend to a friend joining Lemmy?

  • Nice feeds! I have added them to the Explore menu for everyone, now.

  • Recommend some games for PCem
