That was very helpful, thank you! I wonder if this will increase server load :D

I really like that “old Reddit” skin , it’d be even better if the mini-thumbnails were optional.

The current Lemmy web interface is nice, but as number of posts and communities goes up I’d like the more compact form.

I was thinking the moderators are going to have to flag posts as AI-generated , I’m not trusting the people posting them to do it. But 100% agree with what you were saying, there should be a way for users and moderators to mark a post as “containing AI-generated content”, similar to NSFW; and then a way for us to filter “AI” like we would NSFW.

“Automation rather then manual work.” How can the filter operate, if “AI generated media” are not flagged manually?

That’s exactly why I want separate Ignore and Block options; there’s lots of nice communities that I’m not interested in updates but wish them well.

And I want to see what new communities pop up, and later Block or Ignore or Subscribe

How are you going to automate it without AI?

Kind of a feature request, but I wish “Ignore Community” and “Block Community” were different. Most of the ones I block seem decent, but something like youtube_feed I’d want to “Block” in a way that records my disappointment.

One good thing about Reddit, you could make a stupid community and it’d never go away. But it never caused anyone a problem either.

My solution is admin approval before community becomes listed. And some guidelines about conditions for approval, which are applied fairly.

Conditions for community removal should be pretty extreme, and also fairly applied.

Infinite Anonymous accounts should always be a thing, but rules could limit community creation to accounts with realistic behavior, that have enough activity to not be alts.

Which Matrix channels? I made an account on matrix.org before but didn’t see any channels that interested me.

To be fair I’ve got shortcuts I reflexively use and clicked on Google links. It’s like quitting smoking and visiting your relatives who smoke? IDK

Why does the top part look a crazy wall of text

I’ve recently gotten cultist fever, would not have tried Cultist Simulator without the recommendation from Lemmy

Ah, I do like the idea of having a personal moderation memory; count of how many times I’ve upvoted and downvoted another user, which only I see.

From there, is the idea that others could subscribe to my “personal” moderation history and use as a reference for their own interface. Example, if someone spends a lot of time labelling things NSFW, I could subscribe to their labels and not need to do extra work myself.

Maybe remaining mods could talk to each other; if they all want out, agree to privately sell out to advertisers instead of publicly committing suicide.

Sticky a post that private parties can message them to discuss “changes to the subreddit policy on sticky posts”. Basically selling out in the same way Reddit management is doing. This seems like the real way to kill a sub, and get paid while doing it.

I’m a new user, using phone app right now, can’t find anything like that. I guess user karma is like Bitcoin, great in theory but not so great given lots of time and the effects of incentives on human behavior

Oh yep I see the longer reply. Yes there was at least a month of reading the subreddit and wiki every day before I got to that level, but for me the learning was fun. Would not recommend spending all that time and energy unless it’s part of the fun. For people that watch streams, I’d expect there’s a good educational one, I don’t watch streams though.

More ways to identify is a good example; there’s several methods of explosion to destroy gear that isn’t +1: bombs, explode rune, dungeon trap. Custom rooms will guarantee one of the potions on the same level is the solution to that room. The number of strength potions per dungeon type is fixed (3?). The ? rune is good once you use that meta-info to increase your odds of a good potion guess. Wands are generally safer to ID, just don’t be on something flammable or water.

Wands are pretty overpowered, and you can recharge em by throwing them into an activated electricity trap, or the energy ring. The way rings become overpowered in their own way as you feed upgrades into them is another aspect of replayability.

I really liked SPD because it felt like I could (eventually) approach 100% win rate, and the bad luck just made things more interesting. In that game, it’s not about what you’ve got so much as when you use it; and careful tile movement. Playing each room like a chess game and not a dungeon crawler was a fun way to play.

Ultima 7 was the first game I could build a house from logs in the pre-existing world, before Ultima Online and Minecraft. I had lots of fun exploring their hand-crafted world. Did my best not to steal from people :)

Oh yeah I forgot about StarSector. Purchasing that game was a bit non-standard. I definitely had a blast playing through the main campaign, then set it aside instead of getting into player mods. It’s a nice community and I hope to revisit whenever the “1.0” release comes out.

The coffin of Andy and Leyley on itch.io was uh something special too, a hilarious hour of slightly interactive game demo.
