  • Move on, it's a sign your not important to the other person, so they are not worth worrying about

    I've got a friend who just dips from the conversation for months and shows back up like nothing happened. Now I respond to their new message, but use signals timed message feature to match however long they ghosted the conversation. Disappear for 2 months then ask a question? No problem, the answer is coming in 60 days!

  • Its very useful for small instances to populate the all feed, otherwise you have to manually find communities and subscribe to them one at a time.

    I'd never seen the community mentioned at all, and it wasn't visible on my instance....

  • I have a UPS designed to run long enough to shutdown my server gracefully. I can manually turn it back on if the outage is extended.

    If I was designing a critical service the ups would have enough runtime to switch over to some other power system (solar batteries, generator, second circuit, etc)

  • Currently banned users cannot vote in the community

    My main issue is if you ban somebody from a community, it goes into the mod log, kind of like that person's permanent record. It's harsh to ban somebody for just voting negativity

  • As somebody who moderates health and diet communities, yes these community tools are absolutely required.

    Especially with respect to voting, there needs to be an

    • option for a community to not go to the all feed if requested
    • option to only allow subscribers to vote
    • ability that doesn't require a ban, but to unsubscribe someone from the community,
    • require people to have accounts of a certain age, or certain level of participation in Lemmy, or in a community, before being able to post or vote
    • remove a user from a community if they only have negative interaction with the community, like only down votes

    Right now it's very difficult for small communities to get started unless they're loved by the current population of lemmy. Which means it's going to be difficult to bring other groups here.

    I think it's critical for the growth of Lemmy that there are genuinely opt-in communities.

    I think the philosophy needs to take into account that people want to make a community to talk about a subject, sometimes they want to talk about the subject in detail, and not just hold a general referendum on the popularity of the subject for the Lemmy as a whole.

    Imagine star trek fans downvote everything from star wars, and vice versa. If someone comes along to make a community for snow speeder project building... They're going to have a bad time, all the Star trek fans will downvote and chill participation. We need these super small interest communities to grow to attract a broader population

  • You're saying he's a bad lawyer because he represented difficult clients?

    Do you have any complaints about the quality of his content itself?

    I think your post basically amounts to you don't like this person, and that's fine, but we really should talk about the content they're producing and the flaws there in
