Well in theory, the courts, which are a separate arm of the govt. In theory.

As an Asian in Asia: I have questions about the pairing of ‘decent Chinese restaurant’ and a dish I’ve never seen in Asia before.

It’s not Alex Jones making that decision, it’s the courts

I think you mean Alex Jones won’t sell to them. But it doesn’t matter even if he wanted to, since at this point it’s effectively govt property and it’s the govt officials who decide.

Every volunteer run instance is the best instance :)

America maybe, but the West is more than just the States

I’m pretty sure the conceit is that the live marine animals are forcing themselves into those orifices.

“what motivation would anyone have to do so?”

Riker: Challenge accepted.

We really need a comm for commentors who aren’t lost but just plain clueless. Something like ‘c/rtfa’

It does not take any funding to create accounts a few days in advance. Automating account creation is probably the most basic step in any troll’s toolbox.

reactionary basement neckbeards who wouldn’t post the same stuff a day later.

Trolls who give up after a day aren’t trolls, they’re users having a bad day. And if they’re stopping after a day, their impact on everybody else is miniscule.

On the OTHER hand, as everybody has pointed out, you’re badly impacting the new user experience. Bullshit posting restrictions on reddit are one of the worst things they came up with. Let’s not replicate all the user hostile stuff they implemented.

How does staggered new account permissions help deter bad actors in any way whatsoever? There’s nothing preventing them from having a pipeline of accounts in aging.

Yeah, they all seem to be posting vague ragebait. There’s definitely some sort of agenda there

Piefed fixes pretty much all of those questionable software decisions, though it does introduce a couple new ones of its own.

Reducing the amount of doomsday content on the front page, which I’m trying to help out with by starting !Nonpolitical_comics@piefed.social

!Nonpolitical_comics@piefed.social!

Wonder if there’s enough interest in this to create a comm for it. Or maybe a more generic ‘daily game’ thing

Nice, thanks!

Well, common in certain circles. Definitely cryptic for everybody else, though.

Pretty disappointing that it doesn’t allow you to access old puzzles.
