It appears every time I upload an image

Since people are concerned about having a space where they don't have to constantly justify their political leaning I'm creating a community specifically for anarchist & adjacent folks.

It will have a strict no electioneering rule.

Seeing the liberty hub head mod get chased out because of an honest mistake is pretty fucking disheartening. Liberty hub was one of the only places that was free of the reddit brainworms that infest almost every lemmy instance because of liberty hub's aggressive modding.

All of the people celebrating him being chased out have been banned from liberty hub for very valid reasons, whether they were very argumentative or genocide apologists. Seriously. Look up the modlog of the people actually celebrating it.

I could put up with 196's bullshit by just blocking them and hoping none of their frequent posters wandered into spaces i took part in but the fact that non-voters is still allowed to run when it's very clearly just meant to be a place to post content that's incendiary towards people who hold political beliefs that don't line up with mindgoblin's as a reaction to mindgoblin being banned from liberty hub for being incredibly argumentative is honestly pretty gross.

I'm just gonna pass mod of the comms i manage to someone i can sorta hope to handle it.

I'm too fucking old and not terminally online enough to put up with this, i'm clearly not the target demographic. Good fucking luck

Two hours ago I made a post to !libertyhub@lemmy.blahaj.zone about US politics. I had previously had a good relationship with the head moderator of this community. They've encouraged My political posts, and he's removed comments by people that misgendered Me, and reminded people of My pronouns, like in this thread two days ago:

However, an hour ago in this new thread, the same moderator who was telling people to respect My capitalised pronouns uses lowercase pronouns to address Me:

And he has left up earlier comments which also seemed to misgender Me, and which I specifically pointed out:

Even as some users in the thread gender Me correctly:

I'm making this thread in the main community because since the mod has banned Me, I can no longer report the comment or leave a reply correcting the pronoun. I would like to gain the attention of @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone

Misgendering trans people and banning Them at the same time so They can't do anything about it is not the kind of thing I expect to see on Blahaj. This mod is clearly 100% aware of My pronouns, and made a choice here. I suppose they could be using the general "you", but it just doesn't look like that, what with banning Me, telling Me My post isn't welcome, and telling Me to go to a different community. I used to have a good rapport with this mod, they said several times that they valued My posts. I posted something he disagrees with, and now all of a sudden respecting trans people's pronouns isn't a priority anymore. He's misgendering Me and they're leaving up comments that also misgender Me. It feels targeted.

EDIT: I cannot seem to embed images. Every time I hit edit and fix the image links and press save, they change to some kind of aussie.zone image proxy link. For now I have left them as links without embedding them.

The2024 fediverse canvas has started, and it's busier than last year! We need your help placing pixels and making Shonky come to life!

@totally_notAcat@lemmy.blahaj.zone has created a template for us to use!

Get those pixels happening!

I don't really know which community to post this in, I think this is the most relevant one?

I've recently spent a bit more time on lemmy.world and I have to say they don't seem super keen on removing trolls and transphobes, same for instances like lemmings.world.

The moderators seem to be perfectly aware of transphobic replies, vague threats, misinformation, and obvious trolling, yet they hardly remove any of the offending replies, and rarely if ever ban anyone. Certainly not often enough to make the network less toxic.

This post was mostly to vent, but I would also like to ask: when you report someone, who receives the report? Mods on my instance? The mods of the specific community I'm reporting from?

Sorry if this is the wrong place.

the lemmy canvas has a list of instances joining the sticker sale (at the bottom).

For the past day or so, I've been seeing a bunch of empty space in between posts. All the posts are there, but I have to scroll for a while to see them all. It also happens on comment threads.

I'm using Firefox 127.0.2 on Android 14. It also happens when I request the desktop site view. It doesn't happen on my actual desktop, nor does it happen for other instances like lemmy.world.

Is this a known issue? Any fixes?

Edit: Within hours of posting, pages are loading normally again.

Thanks to the lovely Heatherhorns (https://trello.com/b/8dvKmvtc/commissions) we have a new icon! We'll be updating the instance icon soon!

So, with the new fediverse canvas project just around the corner, it's time for our new shonk to represent!

The community c/libertyhub@lemmy.blahaj.zone states in the sidebar it's a community for leftists and post leftists, but if you actually look at the posts the mods are making, it's almost nothing but trolling and telling people not to vote in the general election.

This rhetoric is especially dangerous to trans people, who this instance is supposed to be a safe space for, and West Bank Palestinians. If the USA elects a fascist president, there is guaranteed to be multiple genocides of society's most vulnerable groups, in addition to what the US is already doing in Gaza.

The mods on Liberty Hub openly troll their users and ban people for advocating left wing or harm reducing positions. The only action that is allowed on the sub is advocating political inaction in the face of genocide, taking a centrist position with regards to open fascism.

This community has absolutely no place on Blahaj Zone and should be removed by the admins.

heyo! :3 I made a post some time ago asking about the same thing but I kinda forgot about it for like 4 months >v< One of the admins said she'd look into it but I didnt get a response

Some people in other instances have animated pfps and banners but when I try to use a gif it shows the broken image icon and apparently its converted to .webm

Last year, blahaj zone did really well! Lets see if we can do it again!

Just testing image upload.

So apparently the Blahaj.zone Sharkey server is down. @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone

I hope the Sharkey instance isn't being shuttered like how mint.lgbt shuttered their Fediverse instance.

I don't see a way to block individual users' posts from showing up in my feeds. There is no "Block" button on any user's page like there is for communities. For some reason I thought there was a way to do this before, but maybe I was just using another frontend? I see some users are blocked when checking my settings. I made sure to disable uBlock Origin to check if it could be an element hiding rule.

For the record these aren't rule breaking users or anything, but instead bots that automatically post things, some of them pulling links straight from reddit. I prefer my Lemmy being populated by humans.

Thank you!

We have a new front end for our users to try out. Photon is my favourite of the three front ends we have enabled. It's clean and modern, and for those of you who moderate communities, it has good access to moderation tools!

Give it a try at https://phtn.lemmy.blahaj.zone/

so thanks to the admins for the year of blahaj it's been amazing :)

the text and secondary UI elements are too difficult to see, and i have no idea how to change the theme since i couldn't find the setting in my Account Settings page on desktop. any ideas how to fix? thank you

i couldn't find lemmy.wtf on the blocklist and lemmy.wtf hasn't defederated with any other instance. i was trying to give mod to myself so i don't forget and leave the community mostly unmoderated and postless. any reason why?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but here goes.
If I add spaces to the beginning of a line,

the text is rendered like this.

Is there a way to have actual spaces in the beginning of a line?

As I myself am still pretty new to running Community's, it be nice to have moderators with experience who can help and Guide me trough things.

For example, non of my Community's have any rules established yet, and I gotta figure out what Rules to put up for them.

The Community's in question are: !catposting@lemmy.blahaj.zone !trams_trolleys_streetcars@lemmy.blahaj.zone !thegametheorists@lemmy.blahaj.zone !creep_podcast@lemmy.blahaj.zone !oldtimers_youngtimers@lemmy.blahaj.zone And lastly, !touch_fluffy_tail@ani.social

Some of these, particularly Catposting and Trams have been slowly but surely getting more popular, reaching over 200 Subscribers recently. Though, thus far I only really had to take moderative actions once across all Communitys, in the months they have been a thing. So it is rather chill. I reccon 1 or 2 Moderators would be just enough

Ofcourse you can choose which one you'd like to help out with! I reccon making a Discord or something like that for solid communication would also happen.

My DMs and Comments under here are Ofcourse open! (Though I might be a bit slow to respond as I got a very long Night shift in front of me)

I'll look forward to hearing from you guys!
