Brave pioneer! I applaud you!!
TIFU
Welcome to TIFU.
This community will stand as a tribute to the fuck up in all of us. We all do something stupid from time to time, this is your place to share and laugh about it with folks on the internet!
Da Rules:
- Use proper formatting
A. All titles must start with TIFU.
B. All posts must have a TL;DR at the end. Some of us are too lazy to read your story, sorry.
C. Use the NFSW Tag, if a Post isn't Appropriate in General but still follows the rules. (Sex stories and etc.)
-
Posts must be about you.
-
Must be your fault.
-
A few things that aren't allowed.
A. No Rape/minors/bestiality. No death of animals. No glorification of major crimes.
B. Illegal activities that you glorify or giving advice on how to do something illegal.
-
Must be actual fuckups No humblebrags or stories that have zero consequences and don't go anywhere. Eg "TIFU by sexy sex". Moderator discretion.
-
Be civil and don't be disruptive No racism/bigotry/homophobia/transphobia. No personal attacks on other users, no name-calling. No low-effort "this didn't happen" type comments.
-
No Self Promotion No making posts with the express purpose of promoting your business/video game/porn career. Even if not mentioned within the text of the post, alluding to links on your profile is not allowed. This covers implying you will set up a stream/public link/onlyfans in the future, having set up one in the past, or anything along the lines of "upvote this comment if you want me to do this." These examples are by no means comprehensive, just don't self promote.
-
Mod Discretion Mods have the right to supersede any rule and make removals as we see fit, which may or may not be the rules listed in this community.
I just did the same thing for Best Updates (BORU replacement) only to find out that Lemmy post bodies can’t be longer than 10k characters (BORU posts are frequently over that). I’m not sure how best to proceed :/
Oh wow, I didn't know of this limitation.
We could open an issue on GitHub proposing a change. In the meantime, you could add to your sidebar suggesting users paste text larger than 10k into Pastebin or another equivalent website and create the post as a link, rather than filling the body.
Ideally, apps like Jerboa could have built in parsers to load text from Pastebin, images from Imgur, and so on, in elegant integrated ways which could mitigate limitations with Lemmy itself.
Talk to ruud the developer of lemmy.world would be my guess. Or the developer of whatever instance your using. And btw can you link the community?
I did the same, then was looking around for any mod tools, but I don't really see any? Or any guides? Anywhere I should look for this? And can you give someone else mod rights ('cause I'd kind of like to, I just didn't want the place to look like a ghost town)
Only way so far I've found to mod someone was on one of their comments.
A lot of the bots and things that made reddit much easier to mod just haven't been developed yet for lemmy. Thosw bots are what makes losing the API bad in the first place. Someone needs to essentially develop an automod equivalent to moderate comments. If I have free time I plan to start working on something.
I would look at the rules of the sub on reddit, most of them exist for a reason. If you have questions, ask a mod, or someone else on lemmy/reddit. I mod on another reddit and lemmy account of mine.
Feel free to reach out if you have questions.
It'll definitely be nice to see some of those tools come back. Godspeed in your development, good sir.
I'm just gonna keep posting the same obnoxious shitpost, so you'll always know you can just safely delete any posts from me. I want to make your life easy :)
How considerate!
I almost did the same, I don't have such big balls like you, though
LOL. I've got three already, but if you want to add me to the team, I'll keep an eye out for you, mostly because my cardinal rule in life is "don't be a dick".
I'd consider that a Sucess not a TIFU!!
You got this! It's good to try new things, especially if they're scary.
Hopefully the pottery community doesnt get out of control... because we just did that there too. I'm sure it'll work out for everyone lmao. I feel like it'll take a long time for people to really populate these new spaces while we learn things anyway. So excited for all the new things happening!
I heard you potheads can go wild sometimes
Oh between the wet splattering clay and dust sticking to those unneccesary clothes we have some fun!
Hey im in the same boat! Already up to 35 people. So far so good though.
Make it 36. \[T]/
That’s the spirit! Subbed, and I promise not to make any work for you.
Thanks for lookin' out, my man. 🙏
Of course! How's it been so far with the influx?
Lmao same, most of mine aren't super huge but there's a lot of em.
I really hope c/dataisbeautiful takes off for you. I'd love to have that content on this platform.
I never subbed to TIFU, but I'm gonna sub to this one!
Tomorrow in TIFU...
Totally up for this if you still need more! Straight into the deep end!
Welcome to Modville!
hahaha same boat, except I have 3 (big names but idk how busy it'll get yet
good luck to the both of us!
I wish your inbox the best of luck, my man. Lol
thank you 😭
(moderating c/woooosh will definitely be interesting 🤦♂️)
I also don't have any experience with moderating :D but i'll give moderating a shot if you want me on the mod team :)
Shabam! Knighted!
