3 days ban from [email protected] for "siphoning users" to [email protected]
  • Nah, having a reasonably active community on another instance is also a bulwark against mods going rogue.

    Trying to ask where the back up communities are for the ones you posted is not exactly relevant, if they did have secondary backup communities I'd be in favour of them staying indepdnent and active but we're talking about ones which do currently have communities across different instances.

    And yes people will reorganise but that takes a degree of time even if only a few days, I see no reason to go around pressuring for "duplicates" to be folded into a single large community when they don't exactly impact the function of the subject matter and allow for a very quick migration should something go wrong.

  • And? This is the entire point of federated networks, if for example the .org instance imploded for whatever reason then the community could easily regroup and hit the ground running on the .UK instance, pushing for everything to be centralised in large communities undermines the benefits of federation.

  • YDI, aggressively trying to stifle a community like that leaves a very very poor impression IMO, people have their reasons for choosing certain instances and that should be respected.

  • Just wanted to say ty for coming on here to respond! Many don't do that, seem like a decent enough mod IMO & I can't say I disagree with your actions.

  • Canada says too little, too late as Trump flip-flops on tariffs
  • Bit tired of hearing this NGL, the problem is with your entire country and frankly that includes casting off the American rural poor as "idiotic country bumkins". Stuff like that is exactly what will turn them away from your ideals & into the hands of those pointing at the snobbish urban elites looking down at them.

  • Germany to reach out to France and UK over sharing of nuclear weapons
  • No it doesn't, only the rockets are from a shared pool the war heads are entirely British.

  • The Ubisoft sale on Steam is bonkers!
  • I actually bought anno 1800 a while back when it was on sale, running it under proton was impossible as the performance was absolutely terrible. It also damaged some system files which took me hours to fix. Pirated copy worked perfectly on lutris though lmao.

  • Second U.S. Pirate Site-Blocking Bill Incoming: MPA, Google, Verizon Met to Discuss.
  • This, if you're present on any private trackers you really need the port forwarding feature.

  • Telegram Shuts Down Z-Library Download Bot and Backup Communication Channel.
  • I think Pavel getting a stale baguette shoved up his behind has truly rendered Telegram compromised in more way than one... I'd be highly cautious of using it for anything at this stage.

  • ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners
  • They were absolute bellends when I tried to get it sorted to transfer the money to another bank as well, sat there insisting my "phone had been hacked/had a virus" and only actually moved my bloody money after I threatened a official complaint.

  • Lloyds? they're closing my local branch as well really need to go in and close the accounts tbh.

  • How does what you said have anything to do with my comment.

  • Surely that falls afoul of some sort of equality legislation/disability legislation?

  • Adding two new admins and introducing radical recalls
  • Set up a system where you need to have

    A: An account here over a certain age

    B: A reasonably high bar of activity where it can be ascertained if the account is acting in good faith.

    Imo the reasoning for doing this is a noble one but its very very open to being exploited unfortunately.

  • What did they do there exactly? bootlicking or?
