Why did the Lemmy instances stopped upgrading the version they use?

They’ve done prod deployments in real life before and hence no longer believe in CD?

Both one off from the superior hexagon. The bestagon.

Yeah like somebody else said, you’d have to challenge their philosophical believes that leads them to hold this opinion first.

And that in turn requires argueing them from a position not based on “I disagree, and my opinion is the correct one”, but on philosophical, logical and argumentative flaws in their believe system. Which is not easy to do. At all. It’s in fact very hard, made harder by the fact that our brains can see information, actively realize this information is correct and contradicts something we thought of earlier, and yet also discard said information and stick to the existing mental model instead. Meaning that even if you do everything correct, they might go “Yes, that’s true” and then nothing happens, out of no ill will.

What kind of resources are we talking about here? Clearly it doesn’t help to make you talk to 1 person that holds contrasting views, as that seems to be your starting point. A study of 1000? A study of 100000? An empirical research over 100 years? 500? A meta analysis? 5 people talking to you about it? 10? 100?

Sure, but as long as modding is a volunteer position that won’t change. If for no other reason that like you say, it’s not a position that motivates you to investigate reports.

Couple that with how toxic and negative Lemmy is overall, and it doesn’t surprise me that the raw volume of reports will lead to a very high amount of “yeah, sure” bans with mininal investigation.

Plus the last part wasn’t meant as a “join in” thing, rather, if you desire an instance that does not abide by bad moderation, the fediverse puts the onus on you to create that instance. Everyone is free to do so, within some limitations such as - and that’s a very very valid thing - a need for adequate moderation tools.

Yeah but we’re talking about a single-incident use here, the article seems to analyse reports about clinical stay usage, as in, over longer bouts of time.

Do not actually do this, if someone is reading this. Alcohol after dental surgery is a risk, as it can mess with wound healing.

Yeah first thing I thought, too. “Have you tried asking somebody who does this professionally? Like, oh I don’t know, THE SURGEON?!”

That’s not a quick-start guide, that’s a novel.

Really, I need citations for a post that already provides an example?

The citation needed is about you saying its both rampant and oppressive, something the server logs don’t provide data for.

That’s actually a part of the problem. The complete lack of responsibility or accountability for anyone on here. Like it or not all it takes is a handful of self-righteous admins to ruin it for the entire platform. What you tout as a Good is quite the opposite in the long run.

But how is that different from any other website? Someone owns them, either an individual or a group. Naturally, they can just about do whatever they desire, including pulling the plug. And more specifically, how would you change that. Especially because:

1. You still need moderation and administration. If for no other reason than should you grow big enough, you got obligations to provide this in regards to illegal, hateful and discriminatory speech and disinformation in the EU.
2. Any moderation will sooner or later upset the moderated person.
3. Any arbitration for this will inevitably come upon a case - see this thread - where it makes someone else partisan to either side.

So you’ll have this problem anyways. No matter what you do. With Lemmy in particular… run your own instance if you desire full control of moderation. That’s what you get that way. Just be aware that there’s a solid chance someone will be unhappy with your moderation at some point. Inevitably.

In this particular case, it adds to the problem that naturally if you ask one side of a dispute whether they think it’s fair or not, they might be sliiiiiiightly biased…

Censorships on Lemmy is rampant and borderline oppressive.

[citation needed]

These non-experts declaring themselves the arbiters of truth is an embarrassment for the platform and need to be dealt with before it gets abandoned.

Luckily then they’re not the “arbiters of truth” for the platform, eh? Just for the instance they own themselves. You are free to disagree with them, and not go to their garden parties any more. Doesn’t change that it’s their garden, and their party.

in flagrant opposition to Lemmy’s ENTIRE PURPOSE

Hrm… no. I tried, and nothing about the Lemmy site says that instance owners aren’t free to moderate their sites as they see fit. In fact that they can is cited as a benefit of the system, since everyone is also free to run their own instance.

(edit)
Look, I don’t even disagree, but no need to make shit up to call admins out for. The subject matter of the topic is enough to call them out for if you’re so inclined.

Yeah and despite this it feels like it’s normal in like India and so on. I would not last 10 minutes in their traffic. 😱

Are those in increasing compliment order? In that case, I can say with confidence that your post sounds like you’re a deranged raccoon holding a knife!

But not Lemmy, apparently? Since we have to link to Fedia and hence go there?

Ouuuuff… either?

Depends on context?

Depends on writing?

Difficult to really say what my preference is. “Well written”, I would say. Believable, but in the context of the fiction, so if the fiction is a magical fairyland, then a believable romance would be utterly idealistic. Etc.

Depends on what you’re talking about, and context.

Physical games? Definitely the relevant physical strengths if done at a semi-professional enough level, so muscles etc. Team games often also teach you some coordination, leading and organization skills.

For board games, planning, adaptation, even critical thinking. Social interaction skills maybe, too.

Friend works in a pet shop, and other than being able to briefly sit down during she’s 100% on her feet. I have no clue how people survive it, huge respect. You get used to it of course, but it seems normal to be sore for the first year or so.

Thank you butthole spiders! 🕷️🕷️🕷️
