1 more day until I go on annual leave for 3 weeks. Its been so long since i've had a break and im so tired but also so excited because im going overseas on my break.
After work ive spent the night exploring Lemmy. Watching two large instances de-federate has been interesting. I am glad I choose this instance instead of the big ones. I didnt think I would see a split like this so quickly.
The split is so interesting! One instance has open registration (like us), the other had a plan for a tightly moderated community. They just don't have the tools to handle all the trolls coming from the open registration instance.
It's not unlike the reddit mods saying they can't moderate with the tools reddit provides, and need to use third party tools that rely on the API. Though the issue with Lemmy is not the API but that it's so early that third party moderation tools don't really exist.
