What is the plan to deal with CSAM?
There’s another round of CSAM attacks and it’s really disturbing to see those images. It was really bothering to see those and they weren’t taken down immediately. There was even a disgusting shithead in the comments who thought it was funny?? the fuck...
I just developed and deployed the first real-time protection for lemmy against CSAM! ( lemmy.dbzer0.com )

How to link post federation-wide?
How can I link a post such that everybody would open it via their home instance (and therefore could interact with it)? Or is there at least any way how to open specific post (from another instance via my instance) manually?
Anyone else feel like Lemmy's "Hot" algorithm for comments isn't "Hot" enough?
For those who are unfamiliar, the default sorting algorithm on most clients is “Hot” - It’s intended to be closer to “New” than “Top” so people who come to a thread late can have their opinion read....
Is creating a throwaway on lemmy bad?
I was wondering whether that could cause issues for the limited servers available, like when the mass migration from reddit happened....
Anonymous Mod actions ( sh.itjust.works )
I speak my mind here and sometimes it causes some friction. Having been banned a few times for various dumb reasons what really annoys me is there’s no notice of it, and many will just hide behind a generic “mod” label for banning and deleting. Is there a reason there’s no attribution required for these actions?
I deleted my accounts on other instances. One of them indeed is seen as empty (so fine by me), but the other one still has all my posts on from the perspective of my new instance.
I deleted them at about the same time, both on different instances. One is empty, from perspective of my new instance, but the other one shows all the posts. What am I supposed to do? I share some of my personal stuff online as means of venting so I can possibly reflect through unbiased responses from strangers and I’m...
Why is there a lack of gifs/videos on Lemmy?
I partially know the answer to this question…You cannot host videos directly on Lemmy, but that is understandable, video hosting is pretty expensive, but Lemmy also doesn’t support video embeds(videos don’t play within Lemmy), which means that you will have to open the link in a new tab/window to watch it. Which is pretty...
Pre-RFC: Message Classifiers ( gist.github.com )
I am 100% sure this has been thought of before. It’s a solution too obvious to ignore....
sorting of 'favourite' comms
Hey lemmings....
Lemmy RFCs ( github.com )
We created a new repository for host requests for comment. It is based on the Rust RFC repo and meant to describe how major new features can be implemented. In this way more people can get involved in the discussion, without having to know Rust or getting lost in implementation details. If there is a major new feature you would...
An option to export blocked communities
That would be good, I guess.
Is there something like infinite scrolling on Lemmy?
I mostly use Lemmy on mobile but I sometimes browse it with my desktop browser....
lemmy.ml: cant create community
Hi Lemmy. I tried to create a community today on lemmy.ml but nothing happened when i clicked the create button: a little wheel spin in the button and then nothing. I tried two different browsers and got the same results. Is lemmy.ml closed to new communities?
PSA: You can upload images to a Lemmy instance without anyone knowing
EDIT...
Is it me or are the "trending communities" really bad on every instance?
It seems like the whole feature is running wrong and should probably be hidden until it can be reexamined. Because every Lemmy server seems to have “trending communities” that are just empty new communities or are just single-user bot feeds. And those are fine uses of lemmy! But they’re not “trending”.

C/Mealtimevideos is gone?
Hey I remember a community I liked called Mealtimevideos - not too short, not too long. Just right for lunchtime....
The wait for getting a new account approved is annoying.
I know not all instances require it. I know not all instances take too long....
That feeling when you're googling the answer to some technical question, and your own Lemmy post appears 4 results down. ( lemmy.one )
Hopefully this kind of content is ok here. Up until recently, when I would be searching for some kind of technical info, the top (and best) results would usually all be Reddit posts. I was very pleasantly surprised to do that this time and find a Lemmy post instead!...
Now tracking Lemmy instances' age (in months) ( github.com )
My GitHub repo awesome-lemmy-instances (that provides a detailed table to quickly compare lemmy instances) now includes the number of months that the instance has been tracked in the MO field....
Being logged out on refresh, Firefox
I am experiencing weird behavior on both lemmy.ml and lemmy.ca where refreshing, or closing and reopening my browser, will cause me to be logged out. This seems to be an issue with my browser, Firefox 102.13 on Debian Bookworm, but it does not happen with any other sites with logins. I have tried clearing cookies and site data...
Lemmy Needs Donations!
Between Lemmy.world desperately needing new mod tools, Lemmy.ee disabling image uploads, and the two main Lemmy.ml devs working on Lemmy for less than minimum wage, I want to urge and remind everyone to please Donate!...
