  • Jordan no longer has any responsibilities or privileges beyond being a community moderator at this time.

    The original description of our community teams can be found here, but over time this has changed a bit. We’re looking to have this more clearly defined again and are talking to the two active members of the team to figure out a good way forward. Currently, this includes for example reviewing communities with unresolved reports that keep piling up, trying to find new moderators for those communities, and it can also include helping out with instance bans to provide more coverage throughout the day when trolls or spammers show up.

    As far as transparency is concerned, there’s still a lot of room for improvement, especially on the timing aspect. We’ve also had more reports in the past about Jordan, but they were either resulting in internal conversations or not necessarily enough to take further actions.














  • lemmy currently doesn’t have granular federation controls. the only option right now is to defederate from mbin instances, but other instances might still announce your users’ votes to mbin instances. the more hacky way would be to also block federation related http requests from mbin instances to prevent them from retrieving user profiles, which is probably the most effective method that could be used.

    piefeds non-federated votes are a user setting for the default value and users have the option for each vote whether it should be federated. see also https://piefed.social/post/982478
