- Comment on Child Safety on Federated Social Media 1 year ago:
The suggestions in their direction for future improvement section should be implemented sooner rather than later. There’s no point in growing this platform if it’s going to be left wide open for abuse like it is.
I also think, in lieu of lemmy devs making any improvements, another good solution would be for a third party to prop something up that scrapes every lemmy post and runs it through an automated service for detecting known CSAM. The third party service would be forcing at least one of those future improvements on lemmy, as it exists today. Any known CSAM that’s found would be automatically reported, and if the instance owners can’t deal with it, then they would rightfully have to deal with the consequences of their inactions.
- Comment on New rules for bots on lemm.ee & Lemmy programming stream 1 year ago:
Yeah, the repost bots just don’t work. Reading the comments is half the fun of using reddit/lemmy, but lemmy has a very small userbase still, so the comments are a little bit slow moving. Having a ton of reposts suddenly spammed in splits that small comment activity up to the point where comments basically don’t exist and you’re viewing a slideshow of empty threads.
- Comment on What do you do personally to find happiness in your everyday life? 1 year ago:
My lifestyle is unhealthy and would most definitely benefit from therapy. But that disclaimer aside, I have a few things I find happiness from. Listening to music is a big one. Over the past year or two I’ve transitioned to listening to mostly classical music, so I have a whole new world to explore in that genre. I’m currently listening to a lot of Shostakovich. Another big source of happiness is continuing to learn about programming. That’s kind of like a ritual that I’ve maintained since my school days. And one of my guilty pleasures recently is those stupid reaction YouTube channels. Not the obnoxious ones where they’re all like “WoaaaAAaa!!1” or whatever. But just regular people watching to comedic and music things.
