Sure but that doesn't mean your instances should just hand your posts over to Meta??? And other people here are wrong, maybe lemmy does it differently, but on Mastodon when you defederate from an instance, your instance stops communicating with that instance entirely, rejecting all attempts to exchange information from that server. Anything the suspended instance saw before the suspension sticks around, but that's basically it. If they never get a chance to even see the information, then the server essentially gets nothing.
You're missing the bigger picture. If threads is federating with the fediverse, then that means Zuck is downloading and indexing a copy of everyone else's posts OUTSIDE of threads.
Sometimes when you put it to sleep, it doesn't actually sleep and the screen stays on but black.
Only thing that seems to fix it if holding down the button until it turns off, then turning it back on again.
Ok but invite who? Any new moderators can see how you treat the current ones. Who the fuck is lining up to get treated like shit to moderate a major website for FREE?
It's funny because if he's trying to reduce costs, letting people upload 2 hour videos probably costs far more than having your website be accessible to people not logged in LMAO
Damn right. The admins I've worked with over at Reddit understand this, but spez seems to think he can get out of this without causing an entire mass exodus... and just let his communities bleed off and die. The community team at reddit understands how important both the users and the mods are, why doesn't spez?

I don't hear enough people talk about Catalyst in Apex Legends and how good of trans rep she is!
(lib.lgbt)
Honestly I was surprised when I started playing Apex recently and this had completely skipped over.
She's certainly not missing any of the trans stereotypes I've seen over on the fediverse with the witchy nature and all, but they've managed to handle her character really well and not fall into any of the annoying pits other developers tend to when trying to make trans rep in media.
I feel so sorry for all the people I've worked with on the Reddit community team. They get to watch as spez personally destroys all their hard work.
I've been on the fediverse since 2017. Anyone who's dealt with running an instance knows how much of a pain in the ass dealing with huge monolithic instances is.
Recently on Mastodon for example, Mastodon.social has had huge spam waves of bots creating accounts on it then randomly sending replies with spam links to anyone they can find. And of course because Mastodon.Social is a huge instance with not enough moderators, people on outside instances can't really do anything except whack-a-mole with the constantly new accounts since the "flagship instance" has open registration. At one point the instance I use now had to suspend mastodon.social temporarily to make the spam wave stop, which of course screwed up everyone's follows.
The best part of Mastodon is the federated nature of the network, which gets completely screwed up when you have mountains of people on a handful of "too-big-to-suspend" instances rather than have people spread out across hundreds-thousands of smaller spaces.
