If there's a bug in the UI that allows this to happen, there's a bug in the backend too. It looks like they're working on both though

I started a job during the pandemic that doesn't even have an office in my province so I'm not going back to the office. I'm super happy about it, I can't even picture myself being in an office anymore. I have so much more free time without having the commute and being able to do chores while on the clock

yep! Exactly like a subreddit

That's unfortunate. A lot of bots have beaten them but it still stops a lot of low quality bots

Yeah this is why I'm not a big fan of sites that have "Free Speech" as their number one thing. You can't tolerate the intolerant and freedom from hate speech is more important than unchecked free speech.

We don't want to become Voat

I think self promotion is alright sometimes like in the case where someone writes a really detailed technical breakdown of something. It's easier to format complex subjects on your own blog than in a thread. I totally agree if the entire purpose of someone's account is to boost their own website though

Yeah I am. I know there's a way to filter out keywords and I'd do that but I would still like to hear of any major developments. I just don't want to hear the same stories repeated over and over again

Just 100x better than Canadian public transport :'). We just built an LRT line in Ottawa and it's down more often than it's working. It has cost the city ridiculous amounts of money to fix it even though it's brand new

they think they're the centre of the country and ate better than everyone else,

lol this does not apply to Ottawa (Canada). We hate ourselves and know that most of the country forgets we exist. Even the leader of our province forgets we exist 90% of the time

I assume for Meta's platform they'd just get defederated very quickly from others. I think it actually could be a good thing in regards to introducing average users to the fediverse (I say this as someone who despises Meta)

What do you mean by that?

Beehaw is defederating from sh.itjustwor.ks and Lemmy.world.Personally I think it's silly to be upset over it considering defederation is one of the selling points of Lemmy.

Beehaw is just going for a more curated experience which I think is completely fine. I'm sure once they have more moderators they'll consider refederating anyway.
