I tend to like systems that give the user tools to moderate their own feed and content they see. Then it’s up to me to decide what I want in my timeline and what I don’t want. This can be a bit heavy on the system though, especially if you don’t have lot of metadata and have to rely on full-text search blocking. Seems to work on Mastodon though.

This then leaves only certain moderation tasks to the server admins (automating CSAM scanning/reporting) - and filtering out content that breaks the server ToS.

Back in the days, Slashdot had a system where you could “opt-in” as a moderator, and this would randomly give you “mod-points” every now and then. You could use your points to up- or downvote posts and comments. I quite enjoyed it and it didn’t feel like I had to apply for a 2nd job (which is the case with lot of other moderation systems)

Vibe coding security problems is all we ever talk about these days.

You’re saying Lemmy usage is turn on? I’m not judging, you do you, but that’s a weird fetish

It’s been 12 years since Heartbleed and we’ve had numerous ”lone maintainer” issues since then. The situation shouldn’t come as a surprise or be especially ”hard to believe”.

This is the state of free software, especially when it matures.

Unless the creators manage to roll some kind of ”commercial” version, it’s not very sustainable in the long run. Turns out many eyes don’t really equal many PRs

Just keep working harder! It’ll trickle down!

I swear I’m not trying to troll

But you’re doing it anyway. If you really are old enough to be posting “back in my days” shit on the Internet, then you must also be old enough to be able to reflect on what you’re actually trying to say and start a discussion about.

Games, like any hobbies are done with whatever expendable income and time we have after everything else “important” is done. They are hobbies. Taste in this fleeting field of entertainment is just as personal and subjective as anyones taste in music. I’m pretty sure you know since you used to have a band in high-school after all.

So what exactly are you trying to say with your post? Why play long games? Because I want to. Just like you seem to want to troll people in this group.

Had you said Teams is the most comprehensive collaboration platform I would have been right there with you.

But Teams is really just a Sharepoint front-end with tacked on voice and text chat. It’s not a messaging platform.

He should probably read what the Stop Killing Games campaign is trying to establish before responding. But he probably “has people for that”. And it shows.

Dude. Don’t keep the bong so close to your keyboard.

Dr. Disrespect: I’ll fucking own this problem!

Economy 2.0 is next week I think (hope!) - so this is just vanilla breakage.

Manor Lords all the way. There’s a big Cities Skylines II patch coming out this week (I hope). I might fire it up and check it out. It’s getting close to “release quality” after pretty crappy release.

Average Bethesda experience I guess

But if it was reality

“In a future, post-apocalyptic Los Angeles brought about by nuclear decimation, citizens must live in underground bunkers to protect themselves from radiation, mutants and bandits.”

And you picked a girl punching a guy the exact moment to suspend your belief at? Damn dude.

Gamers are so fucking weird. Really enjoyed the show. Hope they make 2nd season.

Yeah, that’s a shame. Hasbro/WotC isn’t the best of companies.

It’s good that they’re not selling to Tencent. But it’s a shame they’re not selling.

I think this has more to do with mergers and acquisitions than game development. When two companies merge certain administrative functions become redundant because the acquiring company already has that function. Doubt they actually fire any devs
