MODERATORS
Having so many communities concentrated in one instance is a problem
Having an architecture that locks communities to an instance is a problem. They should be distributed across the network with no notion of a home instance.
How would moderation work then?
Moderation is also just an event in the protocol, just like votes or comments. Your instance would simply have to aggregate all those events, just like the current "home instances" do for their communities.

Then you run into problems with instance admins disagreeing over moderation

They still to be attached to an instance at the protocol level. Or you have instances which are barely network components rather than communities, but that's not what ActivityPub is about

It's called a fediverse for a reason
Why?
Because then allowing flat-earthers affect all the communities: https://lemmy.world/post/24135976
Also huge delay with some instances
Also, lots of discussion under the announcement post in the new comm https://lemmy.world/post/24437552.
Omg the disparity is palpable.
The post you linked:
we are going to continue to moderate on this instance exactly the same as we did on blahaj.zone.
The "we've already left" style post on blahaj:
Why? That's a complicated question with a long answer! The primary difference is moderatorial and ideologial differences between my team and Ada's excellent team of admins...
Edit: so in asking whether the moderation will appear the same to the users, the answer is "well yes, except actually no".
Even better one mod said
I can guarantee we will not be expected to entertain trolls
Their ideological differences have clearly been spelled out as not wanting to respect people whose identities they deem invalid.

Only 2-3 hours old and already 36 posts (less than a minute later 43, I'll stop updating this now:-), nearly 400 users, 174 subscribers (I guess the others simply voted or commented?) - this is taking off like a rocket!
The mods forgot the basic Rule of Lemmy: fuck spez.

I'm on LW and both communities seem empty. This usually indicates defederation, right?
No, that's something with your client. When I go to https://lemmy.world/c/yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com I see plenty of posts.
It's strange, when I'm logged in on the web app or use Sync I see nothing, when I'm not logged in to the web app it's fine. Also using the Eternity app works fine.
That is weird, maybe check your language settings? Make sure you have 'Undetermined' selected. If not, maybe log out and back in.
Checked it, it's on Undetermined. Logged back in just in case, but nothing.
Either I got banned or something else is afoot. But we're getting quite offtopic so I'll leave it here. Thanks for the suggestion!

I don’t fully understand this.
While having one big instance is not ideal, isn’t the idea that it should be easy to move once and if the big instance becomes draconian?
I thought the whole point of the fediverse was not to get locked into a walled garden and be able to decentralize as needed, ending up with a few big players is inevitable, no?
The issue here is that the community was doing well on one instance, then the mods decided to move without asking the community.

Okay yeah that’s a problem.
Mods have been weird lately, my comment got removed for using the R word, not retardant.

Seems like they didn't get the memo that the entire point of coming here was to decentralize.
Then again /c/196 sucks so that's a fitting instance for them. Blahaj is marginally better.
Fantastic use of that meme format
Instance wars are so fucking pathetic
You would say that coming from that dungheap at lemmy.zip!
when i saw that announcement post i literally did a double take at my watch to make sure it wasn’t April Fool’s Day
like that’s how dumb this idea was i thought it was a joke at first
Drag saw 196 mods mentioning their plan to move instances after Ada told them not to misgender trans people. "Ideological differences", huh? Wonder what that's code for
You did piss off a couple of powerusers dedicated to instance wars, but the mods are working to insist that's not what any of this is about.

Nonsence? Nonsence?
The machine that makes the memes also checks the spells you know.
Btw does someone have some place where i can read what happened exactly?

Makes sense. The two padded rooms of Lemmy.
No way (that there is only two:-)
