We need more moderation
  • I like so many things about kbin, but definitely don't need another unmoderated spammy site to visit. I check back every few weeks, and nothing seems to improve.

    Given the apparent inability to implement blocking, I'm not terribly hopeful.

  • Fleeing Elon Musk’s X, the quest to re-create ‘Black Twitter’
  • Yeah, it's very sad.

    The core of the issue is that it's too easy for us privileged folks to suggest things like - and I'm not trying to pick on you at all here - that vulnerable people stay in any sort of "self-enforced walled garden" rather than robust moderation tools and the human resources to use them to their full potential.

  • Fleeing Elon Musk’s X, the quest to re-create ‘Black Twitter’
  • As I understand it, one of the major issues with moving to e.g. Mastodon is that the Fediverse doesn't implement blocking in a way that you'd expect, at all. It's effectively impossible to block someone the way we're used to blocking in places like Twitter, Instagram.

    I have also heard a lot of stories from Black folks about anti-Black sentiment on Mastodon.

  • GDPR settings are simply insane
  • I'm in the US and don't have the ability to opt-out of these things.

    I used Sync for Reddit for many years but the Lemmy version's privacy policy is not what I was hoping to see. I would love a clarification around what privacy improvements a subscription might add...

  • (Opinion:) You're So Vain, You Probably Think This App Is About You: On Meta and Mastodon
  • The author dedicates gobs of prose to illustrate their weak theories while on the other hand mocking the legitimate concerns people have, implying they are childish. And in reality most of the things people are concerned about will absolutely, certainly happen.
