  • ctag ctag 5 months ago 100%

    Thank you for the tips.

    I'm a moderator on the community where I encountered the spambot account, and already banned it there. My question is wondering how I can report the user upstream to the instance admins. I'm not very familiar with Lemmy, I see that there's a modlog, so perhaps the SDF admins would need to monitor it and act based on the user getting banned from one of their communities?

    How does SDF handle moderating spambots?

    Hi, I have a tiny newsfeed community here on SDF. We got a spam comment by another user registered on the instance. Looking at the account, all it does is link spam. Is there a process to flagging the account for moderation at the instance level, rather than flagging to block in individual communities? Account in question: https://lemmy.sdf.org/u/dordle12

  • ctag ctag 9 months ago 100%

    Erin Kissane has an excellent article on why Meta doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt. Meta/Facebook has had power over social media before and displayed incredible disregard for human life, much less anything else related to healthy communities.

    To treat Threads the same as a brand new instance and federate with it is a mistake.

    I'm not too happy about them either. To some extent I think I avoid organizing them because leaving them as tabs makes them more "pressing" for me to some day get to reading. I'm like a failed data hoarder/archivist.

    Alabama lawmaker’s dumbest idea is now mainstream American politics www.al.com

    > In 2004, Allen introduced legislation to pull books with LGBTQ characters, themes and authors from school libraries, and it was this bill that set the tone for his political career. > When asked what should be done with the books, Allen said he didn’t think they should be burned, necessarily. > “I guess we dig a big hole and dump them in and bury them,” he said at the time. > Friends had to quietly explain that Allen’s bill would ban, along with works such as “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” and “The Color Purple,” a little best-seller called “The Holy Bible.”

The majority of these books were about the LGBTQ community. At least one was added to the list because the author's last name is Gay.

A couple of seconds after Perkins yells for the tow truck driver to put the truck down, there is a shout that comes from the area behind Perkins’ truck. It sounds an awful lot like, “Hey! Police!” And immediately, shots were fired at Perkins. Eighteen of them in all, by my count.
