I'm not understanding your concern. If there's a powertripping moderator that's causing trouble there are options. The group can split and migrate elsewhere, just like the reddit migrants have who came here.

The fediverse is much harder to consolidate tightly. There are 5 New Zealand communities for example spread across the fediverse currently. One is large and the rest are tiny. If the mod/admin for the large one started being a dick the users would move elsewhere after a lot of whining. This was not as easy on reddit because there could only be one /r/newzealand. Currently there is newzealand@lemmy.nz, newzealand@lemmy.ml, newzealand@feddit.nz, nz@kbin.social, New Zealand@kbin.social.

If there was a powertripping moderator on a large group like technology@beehaw.org the site admins can remove that mod if it was causing trouble for the overall site.

What's the problem with this?

If they can moderate that many groups to the standard each community is happy with is it an issue?

There are two subs I've seen where the mods we're contacted by the reddit admins and told to reopen or be replaced.

I thought that was the same damage working at a desk that does not fit can cause

Email has the same problems as federated lemmy servers.

Mail Servers can end up on distrubuted blacklists and unable to communicate with each other. When office 365 has an outage it causes huge problems because it's a single large provider having issues. That provider goes down but not email as a whole.

This is the same as what happened about a week ago when lemmy.ml and lemmy.world went down due to load.

The are so many bad actors in superstonk and other gme subs they do not want anyone to move or splinter off.

Keep making noise in there and people will start moving over.

The greatest tool we added at work was Apache Guacamole.

We have it integrated with salesforce and our monitoring software for easy access to servers when it's needed.

I got a 1:16 scale German soldier that I've started painting.

One big question I have is where is the money going?

I use rundeck to do this.

 

Hello, When I go to communities and list all, I can only see two pages of communities. If I search for a community I know about there's a good chance it does not show until I go to https://lemmy.nz/c/group@instance

Once I do that I can subscribe to the community and it's behaving normally.

Is this an effect of it being federated?

Thanks
