Quiblr actually is open source now: https://github.com/Technicolor-Dreamcoat/Quiblr

Irrc, a ‘For You’ algorithm is on the road map, but it doesn’t currently have it.

I got the same timestamps with:

select name, score, comment_like.published from comment_like 
left join person on comment_like.person_id = person.id 
where comment_id = 16354453;

IDK, I just don’t think this is the pattern of someone boosting their comment (see !albumartporn@lemmy.world for actual vote manipulation), or at the very least I don’t think it’s Plinky doing it (he’s a fairly regular contributor to UK threads and this is the first time those accounts have interacted with his comments here).

I don’t know why Hexbearers are so insular (I have also noticed they rarely interact with stuff not from their own instance), it could be malicious or just another aspect of the annoying culture they’ve developed over there.

Please pray for those of us who mod political communities that Hexbear federates with 🙏

I checked in the DB and the other Hexbear votes happened quite a bit after the comment was made. I don’t think someone doing voter fraud would wait 50 minutes, then another 15, to boost a comment, but maybe I’m underestimating their dedication.

Sex isn’t a “gender orientation” it is really simple biology.

Gamete size – its really simple.

Congratulations infertile people, you are now officially sexless.

Though this content could flourish in pockets of the fediverse, the scary scenario of prevalent child sexual abuse material is not the case. There are many moderation tools, including shared blocklists, that prevent it. However, the idea that the fediverse is full of harmful content was used by Elon Musk to justify his anti-competitive decision to block links from X to Mastodon.

Didn’t he unban someone who posted one of the worst CSAM videos known?

At this point they should just hire the Heroic devs, I doubt anything they could build themselves would compare in terms of quality.

“The bourgeois simultaneous pushing both sides of an issue to divide the working class? Nah, seems far fetched.”

Also, secretly? The worst thing about transphobes is their constant need to be the centre of attention.

If a post contains content that is not allowed, the post should be deleted, that’s it.

OK, but what about content that is allowed, but has certain restrictions, like needs to be tagged NSFW. The current workflow to get this changed is: A mod comments under a pot telling the creator to tag it NSFW -> Remove the post -> wait for the creator to edit the post -> restore the post. This seems needlessly complicated and labour intensive, no?

Most importantly, we shouldn’t allow that to happen via the API.

My view is that not adding this to the API will only encourage admins who want this to do it through less transparent means, like injecting fake activities into the sent_activity table. Most admins are reasonable people, and have good relations with their users, so if admins explained themselves then I think most users would be pretty accepting.

You’re free to start a “Should mods be able to edit user’s data?” discussion, but I doubt it would get much support, especially from reddit allowing this and it souring everyone to it.

I mean there’s been like 3 or 4 GitHub issues opened about this, so there’s clearly some demand for it. Should I make a post in !lemmy@lemmy.ml? So users not on GitHub can chime in.

You can read over the discussion here, but we will never allow mods or admins to act as / impersonate users, or edit their content.

I really don’t get this. Why is editing user content with slur_filter or modifying URLs accepted but allowing mods/admins to change the NSFW toggle isn’t? It also ignores that savvy-enough admins can edit user content with SQL queries.

If we’re talking about religion and conspiracy theories then yes, your religious affiliation is relevant. The more religious someone is, the more likely they are to believe in conspiracy theories, such as the ones I mentioned.

Literally trying to do a genetic fallacy. Trust me it not Geneva_convenience who looks like the raving conspiracy theorist here.

This thread started with geneva_convenience claiming the rape gangs were a hoax. That’s crazy talk. They were not a hoax, heinous crimes were ignored and brushed under the carpet for years, children were seriously let down by the system, police and authorities missed many opportunities to help children in desperate need.

The hoax isn’t that there weren’t gangs of people of South Asian decent participating in group-based child sexual exploitation, but that this was a phenomenon exclusive to/overrepresented by the South Asian community. The hoax is the picture the media painted in the public’s eyes that ‘rape gangs’ (no legal definition of this either, BTW) were predominantly done by Muslim men.

Yeah, if I was building something production ready in Lisp, Clojure would be my choice even though I prefer CL. Ecosystem is ultimately king.

Oh, to be able to develop Lemmy with something like SLIME or Geiser, now that would be a dream. Too bad the CL’s library ecosystem is so much worse than Rust’s.

Will Lemmy can become easy like Bluesky? Are there plans like that?

Echoing @Die4Ever@programming.dev, but it’s hard to comment on something so vague. Of course making things easier for users is an important goal.

Streeting said he found Israel’s decision to break the Gaza ceasefire “soul-destroying”, and insisted the attacks do not “serve in Israel’s self-interest and cannot be justified as self-defence”, adding: “It has got to stop.”

It must be a cold down there in hell, because I have to give Streeting credit here.

Reflecting on the government’s unpopular decision to cut disability benefits and foreign aid, Streeting urged Labour’s critical friends to “cut us some slack”.

No, stop killing disabled people.

Trying to get someone to profess their religious affiliations just so you can have an easy dunk and dismiss what they’re saying out of hand is not the killer debate tactic you think it is. Geneva_convenience being a Muslim or not has nothing to do with the truthfulness of ‘Muslim grooming gangs’. The term ‘grooming gang’ has no legal definition, BTW. It’s pure media invention that’s only employed against South Asians, despite the perpetrators of group-based child sexual exploitation being predominately white.

Labour doubling down on “Sir Kid Starver” is certainly a look.
