I mean you literally need it in the UK to access lemmy.zip locally and imgur.

A detail: You actually can kinda follow users on Piefed. You can get notified when they post new threads, although it’d be cool if you could also “subscribe” and thus threads they make could show in your feed.

I think it is possible, but highly unlikely in this context.

I suppose I mean they’d account hop before they got caught and their posts removed.

Also, plenty of instances would like to restrict it. Ie I doubt lemmy.blahaj would really appreciate lemmy.world accounts hopping over.

I thought the point of migrating an account here would be to automatically migrate the post history too.

Piefed already has an extensive feed system for this btw

I am posting outside of my instance right now by replying to you

I feel like a bunch of trolls would abuse account migration tools by instance hopping before they get banned.

Find me a single user on lemmy.world upvoted for defending the invasion of Iraq or calling for the end of/opposing socialised healthcare

Votes technically being public and viewable however does mitigate voting manipulation and brigading and overall keeps the fediverse more honest and transparent.

I found that about 1/10 of the top lemmy posts (after filtering out jokes and sports) are links to AI slop that nobody bothered to check, comments just take the headline as real if they affirm. Pointing this out in the comments did not reduce engagement or drop the posts.

Can I see where/how you found this out?

We make a lot of effort to consolidate communities by closing on one instance, and opening it on another.

But sometimes multiple communities for the same topic make sense depending on different local moderation methods and instance rules.

Oh sorry, I misread, I thought you meant “one movie community” as if that was the only community on the Fediverse about movies.

That is has been the biggest surprise for me, so many communities are completely dead. There is one movie community. Whose last post was 1.5 years ago.

Serious question, have you considered defaulting to subscribed rather than /all/?

I’m not new as such. I joined up on kbin initially and tried to establish my communities on there, but kbin kinda collapsed. Then I gave up for a while.

When I came back, I moved to lemm.ee and set up television and obscuremusic and got them going (the former especially) and then unfortunately lemm.ee shut down and then I moved to Piefed and rebuilt it all over again.

Doesn’t Mbin measure this for communities you moderate?

Possibly the urls in the image that made it objectionable
