I've checked the fedipact signatories, but they all seem to be lemmy instances.

Als ob die original-Nazis mit Sozialem gross etwas am Hut hatten.

Disappointed that the article didn't mention the fediverse

Ich glaube sein Problem in diesem Kontext wäre, dass er dann wahrscheinlich eine sehr grosse Zielscheibe am Rücken hätte.

I just tried sending someone on a lemmy instance a private message (solution to a riddle) and got redirected to https://kbin.social/sub instead.

Is that a bug or just how kbin handles things that are impossible (maybe lemmy doesn't have messages, or PMs between instances doesn't work)

That's exactly what everyone defederating them would do?

If you use a script to mass edit your Reddit content, make sure you make it wait a few seconds between each edit. If you do the mass editing by hand, make sure you're not too fast.

Otherwise, it will appear like the edit was successful, but if you reload the page, you'll see it didn't actually take.

I've found a link to this fork of Power Delete Suite in the comments somewhere here in the fediverse and it worked because it waits for 5 seconds between edits. Warning: If you want a backup of your comments before editing them though, use the main Power Delete Suite to get it that, the fork's version of the backup was incomplete (I ran the backup first, looked for my very first Reddit post and it wasn't there, so I was glad I hadn't run the editing portion yet. When I ran the main version of PDS I got a complete backup. It's only the backup that's incomplete in the fork though, the editing caught everything once it had slogged through.)

PS 1: Reddit seems to be undeleting deleted stuff sometimes, but they don't seem to keep edit history.

PS 2: Some subreddits seem to remove all comments edited after/before some point in time or passed time period, some seem to remove all comments edited to mention lemmy/kbin.

PS 3: It is not possible to delete or edit or even see your own content in subreddits that are currently set to private. As subreddits go from private back to public, you'll need to go back and edit that newly visible and editable stuff.

I would claim actual free speech absolutists don't exist.

Musk is a proponent of near-absolute free speech

Anything goes, so long as it doesn't hurt his feelings personally

Time and again, we see CEOs and similar executives make horrible decisions that massively damage a company both financially and in terms of reputation and the perpetrator is forced to resign, yet receives so much money as a going away present you'd think they're being rewarded for their fuck up. Why??

I think making a custom award for the sub's creator qualifies as knowing about it.

At this point, spez resigning wouldn't cut it. Reddit would need to be made into a non-profit a la Wikipedia and be managed by a trust.

Also, you can microblog with your kbin account, so boosting with it actually does something.

Die Sortierung nach "Heiß" hat bei der aktuellen Lemmy-version einen Fehler, der die "Hitze" eines Pfostens nicht abklingen lässt. Bis das geflickt ist, entweder nach Neu sortieren oder auf "innerhalb der letzten X Stunden" begrenzen.

Has John Oliver already had an episode about spez's enshittifying of reddit? Because if not, I guess this is one way to make him at least mention it on Last Week Tonight. xD

It isn't the case.

The first problem was actual trolls using were using lemmy.world's open and automated registration (beehaw makes you write why you want to join and manually approves registrations based on that) to troll Beehaw.

The second problem was that the moderation tools aren't mature enough yet to deal with problem one with anything between manually banning every troll (which will immediately come back by creating another lemmy.world account) and total defederation from the instances most of those trolls are coming from.

Because Beehaw's mission statement is to be a safe space, it was decided to go with the defederation option.

However, the defederation isn't planned to be permanent. Improvements in mod tools and/or maturing of communities are said to be reasons to refederate again.
