r/ModCoord: The admins in charge of demodded subreddits are mass-removing images of Huffman previously shared on them
the OP asked how are they gonna remove them all, so I replied they’ll run a query for terms like “fuck spez”. only to find my comment invisible, because they’re already blocking it. spez protective word filter, it’s active right now.
An approach 3rd party apps can take could be just hiding the “different instances” aspect of the lemmy and just registering users to a certain preselected instance such as lemmy.world or lemmy.ml I don’t know how legal or viable it is but I don’t think it would cause much difference for most of the users. Though I feel like hiding a crucial aspect would be a kind of shame.
They could provide the choice. But I don’t think he signup is the big problem. Things like duplicate communities are going to be bigger headaches I fear. Though I just joined today so might not be on the right level yet ;)
