There’s definitely bots here though it feels wayyyyy way less than Reddit. Especially noticeable with accounts that try to lure in older men with their kink for age-play and such.
I caught those posts about the switch this morning that you noticed and ignored them for this exact reason.
Yet another reason to keep children safer in these types of sports. The CTE risk alone should give any parent pause.
Thanks for posting the question anyway! It generated some good convo
There are ways for admins to step in on that kind of rule breaking, I believe. And I hope that’s true in the case that any CSAM might appear on Lemmy.
Lol yeah, it really is a rehashing of freedom vs security, isn’t it?
Genuine question: if someone doxes your address on Lemmy, wouldn’t you want to be able to get it deleted?
The someone still has my address, right? Getting it off Lemmy doesn’t really do much.
I think that people using the Fediverse generally want there to be more transparency and more control by the users and less in the hands of a few admins. We’ve all seen how Reddit took control over users info and comments over the years. There’s a push here to not let that happen.
It’s the principle of it. Start making exceptions for certain comments to be deleted then where is the line drawn? Easier to have it so nothing is ever truly deleted.
There are some instances that allow you to hide your deleted comments and posts, but it’s really just hiding it from yourself. Because of the way different instances are federated, your comments may still appear in other places even after you’ve deleted it. Smarter people than myself can explain it better.
Then go back to Reddit, I guess? I swear I’m not saying that in a snarky way. But nothing is ever truly deleted even if you can’t see it on your profile anymore.
Thanks, I knew I had it wrong but asked instead of searching around. I appreciate the info!!
Oof yeah that’s a good chunk of change for something like this. I’m sorry you weren’t able to get it earlier!
More transparency, I believe.
I’m curious because I don’t know enough about the…uk? Is that where you’re from?
Mexico has private health providers that one can go to if they want to pay for something the universal healthcare won’t cover. Is it similar there?
Hey I really appreciate that, thank you. I much prefer these types of convos where everyone is respectful and inquisitive.
Not so silly and now you know! Thanks for asking the question so others could chime in with info :)
Boys and men can get this vaccine now as well!! Everyone should get it to help protect against HPV and the associated cancers.
Thank you!!
the amount of dudes showing up with trollish comments became a bit too much for us admins to handle.
The mods in womensstuff work really, really hard.
That’s her :)
Maybe! LadyButterfly is the mod of the womensstuff community and she does a great job, maybe we can get this info to her.
I really appreciate your acknowledgement of some of the issues with the diversity in the threadiverse. And appreciate your support <3
Also a vital support network for LGBT+ people, I guess?
Mhm and the instance where the only women’s community is hosted :(
I think there’s value in responding to some posts. I hope myself and another user were able to steer some men away from the obvious young woman trying to bait them into a romance scam.
