    Is there anything good in Hexbear?

  • The question itself is inflammatory but there has generally been a good discussion. Locking instead of removing.

    Lemmy community that directs users Lemmy communities? (plus 2 other questions)

    Jump

  • This is more of a support question, related to using Lemmy. Please see the sidebar for a list of communities that offer support. Removing under rule #3.

    Feel free to make a new topic for your third question.

  • View removed posts in modlog

    Jump

  • That looks like the error that shows up when the community hasn't synced with the instance yet, usually when you're the first to subscribe to it. My guess is that the removed post wasn't synced to your instance before it was removed, so your instance doesn't have a local copy to show you. You could probably get around this by navigating directly to this community and then checking the home instance's mod log.

    Here's a direct link to test it out: https://lemmy.ml/modlog/8

    Note: I'm guessing as I don't have access to server logs to confirm.

  • Why was a post about "What's the worst Lemmy community you've run across?" removed due to rule 2 when it seemed kinda weaksause compared to what is normally here?

    Jump

  • The discussion on communities is better suited to [email protected].

    See rule #2 - we specifically are careful around offensive topics because we don't have the bandwidth to moderate them carefully. That can mean allowing a conversation to run to see where it goes if one of us has bandwidth - if it goes well, great. If not, it gets locked or removed, depending on the amount of interaction and the tone of the comments. Actively following each thread and removing comments as they come up isn't possible due to bandwidth and tools, so it's a question of looking at the value to the community and overall tone.

    A post that is unnecessarily provocative or won't lead to a good discussion is generally removed early.

    Regarding bullying, that's very much on our radar. There isn't a hard and fast rule and needs to be dealt with on a per situation basis.

    Feel free to take a look at the mod log (link is in the sidebar) for examples of how we handle tougher conversations.

    Jump

  • Initially the post itself and confirmed by the comments. Mod tools on Lemmy are very simple and I didn't have time or interest in babysitting a thread that was already looking for a negative, unhelpful discussion. If you really want this discussion, try [email protected].

    At the end of the day, it was a mod judgements call about the type of content we want to see on this community.

    Jump

  • Asking about the worst Lemmy communities is an easy way to share negative sentiment which has no real value and causes a lot of work for the mods. We're a small team and looking at the comments that had already been posted, it wasn't something that was worth our time to keep up with. Hence rule #2.

  • How do you consume Muesli?

    Jump

  • Please tell us how it comes out! I have time extra muesli to use up and am following along with curiosity.

  • What's the best Android/iPhone app for Lemmy?

    Jump

  • See the topic description: Sticky so that we have one place to discuss. This saves removing multiple posts about mobile apps per day. The post has been stickied for over two months now; pretty sure it predates the memes.

  • What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations?

  • Knitting - if you find the right audience, you can chat for hours, but it can also lead to blank looks or lots of assumption.

  • I still dabble with orthic shorthand - it's kind of like seeing language from a different perspective.

  • Removing per rule #4 - we have recently discussed this topic multiple times. I see the nuance that you're looking for but there's too much overlap.
