Comment on Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social
SorteKanin@feddit.dk 3 days agoNo just the whole thing. It seems sort of extreme to do all this stuff in the code. This is not something the software should have inbuilt if you ask me.

Why? Much of it is orientated around giving admins tools to deal with trolls/spammers/AI posters. An alert system.

Lol y’all complain about Lemmy’s moderation but think this is fine?
Starting to think what you actually disagree with is the political opinions of the Lemmy devs, not the “authoritarian” tactics themselves.

This is just something piefed.social has, not all. Rimu dislikes 4chan culture heavily.

Oh please if Lemmy had that hard coded you would absoluutely not be defending it.

I feel like you’re moving from moderation to sort of oppressive or authoritarian territory once you’re literally building a social credit system into your software. If you want that, sure use PieFed. I don’t want that, so I won’t.

Ironic how piefed defederates from lgml and lml by default, yet implements CCP-style and CCP-vibe content and behaviour moderation.

So the reputation system. I’ll see if Rimu can be talked into making it instance level.
But its function is primarily to just catch out trolls and spammers. Make them more visible to admins.

It seems the chief complaint people have about Lemmy going to Piefed are how admins operate their instances. Not sure any of this will change that, or even help.
Not to mention all these are just a game for trolls and spammers to tool around with. Like: Up/downvotes were built before vote manipulation became a problem.
This stuff is the difference between building a bridge and governing who crosses it.
