haven’t been following what’s going on with fediseer, but it’s good that we have something like it! :) I especially like that cloudflare instances are automatically hesitated, and that there are different levels of mistrust

He made various moderation improvements, such as removing content from local communities when a remote user is banned or purged

Does this mean when a user is banned, all of their previous comments and posts are deleted? I understand the usefulness of the change, but I think this maneuver could get rid of a lot of useful information too, be it a misclick, a temporarily high tempered staff member, or user behavior that goes against instance rules but do not warrant deletion of their content (because they were not a spammer, neither a serial liar).

When the user is unbanned, is their content restored, or it is unrecoverably deleted on a ban?

Also, about the last part: does that mean that when the remote user has been banned locally, or when they are banned on their hosting instance?

There are many instances which have “stuck by” Lemmy for years, such as hexbear or lemmygrad, and none of them ever showed the sort of entitled attitude that beehaw admins have.

Interesting choices. Often it doesnt seem like they would be using the more advanced moderation tools anyway. Its just natural that they dont complain about something missing they dont need.

The point is on the “hourly increase”, which starts at 0.

PeerTube is one of them, but usually you will find it under any other name like TILVids and Kraut.Zone, as the developers dont have an open instance. But be aware that since its much more resource intensive to host a video platform, there may be fewer of them, and also the content format seems to work out less in this world, for now at least.

It is very useful, but it is just a frontend to youtube, not really an alternative.

I’ve read this from someone on reddit a few days ago, but I think it’s true: reddit-archive like read-only lemmy instances should be set up. The data is available, see the-eye.eu/redarcs

r/DataHoarder also has some more info on this with tooling in a pinned post. They didn’t private the sub, it’s only read-only so it’s still readable
