You are just that speedy:-) โฉ
That's simply the American hard work ethic - if you aren't having children at 90, then you aren't working hard enough!? ๐ (And then what, presumably they are raised by... older children? ๐)
The admin of Midwest.Social has been known for a long while now to be that way - though unlike the big 3, it's not full-on tankie b/c it seems so far to merely be the admin but most of the users are not that way? Still, after the big 3, it's the #1 instance I am aware of that comes the closest to being tankie, as you can see from peeking at its content.
I think using your LW account should be fine? Or perhaps we should add both your dubvee.org and LW accounts, for convenience? Mostly I'm waiting to see if a second mod would join, then I could add them, tell them to add you, and then you'd be good to go. Or if nobody does, then I could just add you directly and immediately - allthough if I do that, and subsequently someone joins the team, then you would become the new "head mod", needing for you to be removed, then go through the procedure above in order for you to be merely a mod but not at the top. Gaaah, hijinks needing to be jumped through here!?!:-P
I wasn't really familiar with Beehaw for most of my time on the Fediverse, but now that I do I kinda like it - and yet don't (or at least am not entirely sure) at the same time, b/c I saw for instance people advocating for actual murder there, right after Donald Trump won the election, which seems not entirely within the spirit of what they are aiming for? Or perhaps it somehow is (blowing off steam maybe?) and I simply don't get their odd rules for what is or is not allowed? In any case, I've never had any issues conversing with anyone from there, or commenting in any of their communities, which is a rare thing to be able to say on the Fediverse, so they seem very non-toxic as a whole, and that I love!:-D
And yes, I worried exactly about your blind spots - in fact I was going to ask about them - as well as those of my own. Although regarding the latter, Lemmy's instance-level blocks are so ineffectual that they shouldn't matter - e.g. I have such a block for lemmy.ml, yet am able to see those comments in the community and respond to them, and receive notifications from them too. But I don't know about your own true defederation with ML: I would love for DO to have defederated from ML as well, but as long as that has not happened yet... we don't want them to be able to post/comment but for mods to not be able to see that content. Which for a LW account definitely will not be an issue. But I don't know if you would be able to see those from dubvee.org? Anyway you definitely know a lot more about modding, in general and especially using Tesseract, than I!:-)
Ah, even the older ones? Nice!:-)
Except it looks like it won't ever retrieve the comments for them, boo:-(. e.g. I was going to respond to a comment by egrets@lemmy.world with how "no man can defeat me" for their #1 list item, but I cannot (with a DO account) b/c there are no comments federated from https://discuss.online/post/14197685.
Though at least posts are coming in, now that I've subscribed to it.
I thought we were looking at it as a potential USA-based instance, though perhaps I simply misremembered it as actually being within the USA rather than merely being a general-purpose one that could be used. Sorry. Either way if the admin is not fixing the server issues after this long... then I am going to stop worrying (as much) about communities being properly federated with it.
Yes:-). BTW have you had any further issues after all that weirdness with the images awhile ago? Also, wtf I just noticed that Fediverse Explorer is now reporting it as being from the UK?! "Server looks to be located in Slough Slough United Kingdom"
I subscribed so that should start federating content from Discuss.Online.
Lemmy.cafe seems to often get left behind though, and I checked and see that none of the posts there have any comments or votes on them - can someone with a lemmy.cafe alt subscribe to it?
Noice! I can't see any of the posts except one from today, though now that I've subscribed at Discuss.Online others should be able to see it there too.
A....nd now there's 5 posts and 8 subscribers there from DO, wow it's growing quickly, keep up the excellent work!:-D
Also this older one too - https://lemmy.world/post/18414833 - i.e. this is a repeated pattern of behavior, not just a series of isolated incidents.
Perhaps it somewhat depends on who you mean by "our":-)
No. People never listen:-P.
Omg these sound ridiculous.
They were literally created and indoctrinated from birth to be thus, that kind of brainwashing is most effective
THEY ARE LITERALLY DIFFERENT SPECIES
#11 takes the piss though, bc that is true of every successful movie series, though notably it is mainly for successful rather than unsuccessful ones... ๐
