I agree it’s too much, but on the other hand the potential user base for the app is much lower than previously with Reddit. So I can understand it, even if I don’t like it.

The Boost dev is also working on an app. https://lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy

The developer, TalkLittle, has made another app but it’s for Tildes instead of Lemmy or Kbin. It’s invite -only so quite low population even compared to Fediverse instances. Plus iirc it’s only text. No images, no video, etc

IIRC they’re a totally private company and in one interview about the graphics card exit it honestly sounds like the founders/owners would rather go out of business than tarnish their reputation even by selling to someone else. So yeah it’s possible they’re just winding the whole thing down.

Yeah that’s just pre-registration – so you’ll get it automatically when the first release drops.

It gets slightly annoying when you want to use a non-recommended extension (like RES). You either need to swap to Nightly or something like Fennec (on F-Droid). Then you must curate your own collection of extensions on addons.mozilla.org and finally set your browser to pull from that collection.

If this is available it definitely needs to be an option, and I think it probably needs to not be the default. I know I like to know which instances I’m interacting with, and I think it makes sense because that’s part of the point of the Fediverse.

extreme far right buffoonery

Like the title said, it basically started off with Nazism. No devolution of discussion required.

I noticed the YouTube Addon for Kodi has started throwing errors about age restricted videos not being available outside of official YouTube apps or the site itself.

This is not actually about pornographic content. Florida already had laws to protect from actually obscene material.

Drag queen story time and drag acts that do not contain nudity are not pornographic.

I think if I were modding one of the remaining subs I’d just keep going and make Reddit keep digging a hole. Replacing the mods for a few of the subs? No problem. For all of the protesting subs? Yeah have fun with that Reddit.

At this rate he’ll be in a bunker next week claiming mods have taken over the Reddit headquarters.

There are screenshots of the mod log showing the “Moderator Code of Conduct” admin account going in and reverting the NSFW settings on multiple subs. Yeah screenshots aren’t always trustworthy but that’s really the best you’re going to get with this. It’s not out of character for Spez though, so I’m not giving Reddit the benefit of the doubt.

The Roommates.com case was about a questionnaire they had that was in violation of fair housing laws. They weren’t immune there under 230 because that was something the company itself put out. From what I understand it wasn’t just them taking moderation action or management of user-generated content.

No. The only thing they don’t have that immunity for is the employee statements made on behalf of the company, etc. The whole publisher/platform distinction based on content moderation is just pulled out of someone’s ass.

Only for Lemmy. Not natively for Kbin, although you can access it via federated Lemmy instances.

Unfortunately the tools for mass editing and deletion will probably stop functioning on July 1.

Yeah Power Delete Suite doesn’t respect the timeout limits for edit requests so it misses things sometimes.

One of the legal advice subs – I can’t remember which – was going forward requiring post approval from mods because they value community safety. But as they are unpaid volunteers they estimate it could take up to 14 days for post approval.

Artemis is going to be cross platform I’m pretty sure. Which is good. On Android, Jerboa is okay but still kinda rough.
