There is, by forking lemmy and removing it. We already do that anyway, so we’ll look in to seeing what we can do.

In the mean time, we offer a bunch of other frontends aside from the default lemmy UI, and they will all bypass this problem

No, he was not unbanned, and he won’t be unless a genuine walkback of his previous stance is made

To me at least, “ignore” implies a server level block of some kind that would be consistent across clients.

Where are you seeing that? I can’t find it in the WebUI

Would like to end up in Argentina or Uruguay though!

That would be a pretty useful feature for a lot of people, especially if you could apply it to a community level. I know lots of people block meme communities etc, but having an option to auto collapse/hide them, but still access them if needed would make things easier for many folk

The best help you can give someone in distress is hearing them, whilst you redirect them to a place that can help with empathy and compassion.

Any form of automated message comes across as the exact opposite of empathy and compassion.

In addition, speaking as the admin of a trans and queer community, I don’t have any special tools or abilities to help people. Sending the report to me doesn’t let me help them, because they’re almost certainly not in my country, and I don’t have any special access that enables me to contact them or reach out to them. The tool I do have, is the instance itself that we host, that allows people to connect with their community and their peers, that allows them to struggle, and that shuts down anyone who would try and add to the hurt of someone on the edge.

Which is to say, I don’t think a reddit style feature has a place here. It will let people think they’re helping, without actually doing so, as well as providing a new vector for abuse (though that would be less of an issue than on reddit). In theory, an automated list of resources that could be called on could be useful, but again, if someone is struggling, they need to feel heard, and automated replies can come across as dispassionate and uncaring.

She makes money from the popularity of her IP, whether or not she makes money from any individual title. The success of that game makes her money, because it tells studios that it is profitable to make Potter content, and that will make her money.

So no, do not purchase her stuff, because she will explicitly use her profits from her IP to actively target and hurt trans folk.

This isn’t hypothetical. It’s not multiple steps removed. It’s not “there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism”. This is someone who is explicitly using her money to hurt vulnerable people, so you do not give her more money or encourage others to.

Ever.

Thank you! I’ll be watching with great interest! Lots of potential :)

Ok, fixed. Our spam protection was interfering with it.

Thanks. Kaity will look in to it and see what’s going on

A couple of questions. If I was trying to keep a consistent workspace to build a community around, would it be persistent after the host logs off, and are their tools to protect it from trolls etc who discover it a workspace?

It means you won’t end up with dual boot breaking one of your installs, you won’t accidentally overwrite anything etc.

Entirely optional, but if you were already planning on removing it anyway, it’s not really any extra work

If you’ve got two slots and a modern motherboard, you can do the same thing but keep both m.2 devices installed. If you really want to be sure, take out the windows device, install Linux on the second, and then put the windows device back in. You’ll be able to swap back to windows if needed that way without swapping things out

I’ve been looking for an excuse to read more Spanish books…

Yeah, it’s extra work, and doesn’t change the infuriating aspect of enshitification, but it’s an option if you absolutely do not want to sign in to the app

It was the banner image on a news article about a gull that picked up a trans flag at pride

For what it’s worth, you can generally record a GPS tracking in another app or on another device and then use your photo editing software to add the coordinates to the photos after the fact.
