IIRC, lemmy.world is hosted in the US, making them liable under US laws.
edit: IR incorrectly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
pay your workers a fair wage! end tipping culture!
Flagged where?
it must be a lemmy.wold thing. each instance does things a little bit differently, but, hey, at least you found a shortcut with the app!
if you click this:
you get this:
this is from the community I moderate on lemmy.ml. maybe it’s different for communities on lemmy.world?
super-relevant video:
I just looked at the mod log— ew… I can see what you’re dealing with there. I suggest you just permaban them, as I doubt they’re going to change their behavior. also, keep an eye out for similar comments/commenting styles that might be indicative of alts (alt accounts).
btw, as mod, you can just ban a user right from their comments— you don’t need to report them yourself!
also, for more advice/help, you can consult the Lemmy Moderation Support room on the Lemmy Space on Matrix (link in the sidebar!)
That’s actually a really good question. I can’t answer for certain, but, sine moderation on lemmy isn’t particularly sophisticated yet, I think it’s safe to assume that you’re not going to be able to see them, even as mod, if you have them blocked personally.
if that’s the case (most likely), your most likely tow choices are to either permaban them from your community or to live with leaving the user un-blocked for moderation purposes.
one third option would be to mod your community with an alt account or appoint some other user to help out…
this sounds like a sci-fi novel
I’m really not experiencing that— because there isn’t The Algorithm feeding you Content™, lemmy is more reliant on you subscribing to specific communities and for them to be active. Personally, I’m subscribed to a lot of communities, but, likewise, I get a lot of active content. Im able to, in a satisfactory way, replicate the experience that I had on reddit— minus 99.9% of the toxicity and hostility, of course.
You may simply find that it’s a mater of fine-tuning your experience here, although the platform itself is still improving. I remember Reddit in its early days, and it, too, took time to improve.
lemmy.world has had massive issues and a bunch of downtime for the last several days, and that might have something to do with it.
