where did all our voters go?

Strange seeing no votes on this one, I really like this song!

no Deus Ex :(

man the Command & Conquer community really showed up to vote, jesus, and the RTS community in general

I count 19 mods for C&C, also 1 upcoming

And Reddit announced that NSFW results would not be returned by the API (which basically renders apps useless for many users)

And of course many subs use the NSFW flag for spoilers too, so you could really be missing out on a lot. On r/StarCraft they use the NSFW tag for recent tournament results, which is like the main thing I would want to discuss on there lol

I wonder if this will change when voters are counted as active users for communities, how that will affect the scaled sorting

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4235

so basically you're saying that it might be difficult to find an instance for your account that federates with the community you want instead of just signup up on the same instance as the community you want? that does make sense

although you could look at the posts on the front page of the instances community and see what instances those users are from, or the instance sidebar could have some suggested instances for creating an account

but yea it could be a little awkward

I'm not sure what you mean, don't they already have that power?

I built a couple of HTPCs like 7 years ago or something. Kaby Lake iGPU had support for 4k HDR so I figured I would use the i3 7100T and Linux would add HDR support soon (I was using LibreELEC which was a minimal Linux that just boots into Kodi). Welp still waiting...

I'm just saying that Lemmy is a software not a website or service, it's a bit unfair to assume that everyone running the Lemmy software will host all of the content from different sites, you don't see this issue with Reddit because no one else is hosting the Reddit software

It's something we could improve, but I also think that it's not right to suggest all content hosted on any Lemmy should be visible on every other Lemmy. I mean the users who enjoy the Beehaw community probably aren't interested in seeing Hexbear content anyways, so this is actually a good feature for them. Each instance admin should have a target market/demographic that they want to appeal to, so they curate their content to match that for the optimum experience for their users.

Similarly Reddit users probably wouldn't like it if all 4chan content was mirrored to Reddit.

Or rather, "content not found in their single instance is not present in Reddit as a whole at all".

That's the point here - it's true for Reddit but false for Lemmy, as content available in one instance doesn't need to be hosted yet again in another.

"Content not found in lemmy.ml's single instance is not present in lemmy.ml as a whole at all"

It's not like Reddit represents the entire Internet, IDK why you're giving them special treatment to exclude content without criticism.

But we are working towards more tools that will allow for defederation to be less needed and hopefully just a last resort. Remember Lemmy is still alpha software.

I do think we need defederation to be separate for communities, posts from users, and comments from users. I could see it being useful to allow the communities and posts from and instance and only banning their comments. Or have default ban lists (of instances, communities, users, posts from instances, comments from instances, etc) that the admins set and users inherit from but can customize personally.
