If this place allows for non-conservatives (non-troll) comments

Considering every comment reply to you has been removed my the moderator (except for their comments), I’m doubting this will be the case.

Oh yay!! I’m glad they’ve already made the update to the codebase. I wasn’t expecting it to be that fast lol.

You’re welcome to point people here if you want! Though, that one could be for Lemmy updates only & they could be cross-posted to this one too! Whatever you’d like to do :)

We actually don’t want to focus on Reddit lol, it probably comes across that way because we’re mostly Reddit refugees who loved best of Redditor updates :). I’m going to be posting from AskAManager & others too, but will probably wait for the character limit update.

This level of editorial influence sounds to me like Reddit is becoming more of a media publisher/editor instead of just a platform, which would (should) remove their protection from defamation & other law suits based on content published on the site…

I just did the same thing for Best Updates (BORU replacement) only to find out that Lemmy post bodies can’t be longer than 10k characters (BORU posts are frequently over that). I’m not sure how best to proceed :/

I don’t think it’s about morals…

Yeah, I was going to say, anyone who’s creating polls on Reddit rn doesn’t know much about how to sample & avoid bias…

Screenshots unfortunately aren’t super accessible for screen readers :(

It was suggested to me in another thread to use something like Pastebin to share large amounts of text, but when I tried, it wasn’t formatted :( I’m also looking at possibly using Github pages, which will apply the correct formatting, but I’m thinking users are unlikely to click thru to 3rd party webpages anyway

It looks like there’s already an issue open on GitHub (though I’m no expert, so correct me if this isn’t an enhancement request)

That’s a good idea about using a 3rd party site! I’ve never heard of pastebin, but I’ll look it up now :) Thanks!!

What app are you using for Lemmy?

It’s !bestupdates@lemmy.world. I think that’s how you link it?

I’m using the browser interface mostly. There are still some issues, though. Like, I got the notification of your comment & the only way I can find to view it in the context of the other comments is to tap on the post name (going to the main post), then scrolling down to find my own comment & your reply. Manageable now, but certainly not manageable if/when Lemmy gets more popular :(.

It would be great to be able to select the notification to take me to the post page, highlighting the comment from the notification, and only loading the thread that comment is in (basically what happened when I tapped on the notification in the Apollo App).

Yay! Figured it out XD. Under each of your comments, I tapped the 3 dots, then selected appoint as a mod :). Good to know for the future haha

Ahh, you’re on android I’m guessing? I’m iOS :( looks like Mlem is the only option rn, and it’s young & buggy :( but still using it! :) and I’m def sticking with Lemmy!

Mlem for iOS crashes like every 30 seconds for me :( I’ve had to stick to the browser :(

Do either of you know of a place where we can group chat? Google didn’t help much :(

Added you :), since you mentioned doing stuff on discord, would you be able to create a group chat for us mods to chat about the path forward/etc. for this community? I don’t have a discord, but can create one. It looks like there isn’t a built-in group chat feature here on Lemmy :(

CC: @nosut@lemmy.world & @phthalocyanin@lemmy.world

I was able to join! Had to sign up for Discord first before the link would work. FYI to @nosut@lemmy.world & @phthalocyanin@lemmy.world; let us know if you have trouble joining! We’ll chat more there :)

Hey - I’m happy to help mod. I’m also modding a couple of other sub replacements :)

Btw, you can promote people to mods by clicking the 3 dots under their comment & clicking to appoint (I think that’s the word they use) as a mod. I had to learn that myself lol

Sounds good! I’ll add you and @phthalocyanin@lemmy.world. Now to figure out how to add mods :). I’ve never modded before :/ haha

Meh, I miss some of my peeps, not all of them though lol
