Donations will work totally fine. If you checkout the Mastodon Patreon, they are getting 28k euros per month, and more through other platforms. With the way Lemmy is growing now, it should definitely be enough to pay the salaries for dessalines and me, and hopefully even take on more contributors.
Anyway lets wait how the Reddit blackout next week goes before discussing funding in detail. Things are still uncertain now.
Please make mod tools a top priority. It's absolutely asinine that I need to have someone comment in a community to add them as a mod.
Contributions welcome.
Lemmy is not a company, it's built by volunteers. If you want a corporate platform go to Reddit.
As you wish.
And hundreds of users are requesting the "volunteers" to add a feature. If y'all want this shit to grow, add basic QoL that should've been there at launch.
Ah and here comes the toxicity along with the reddit flood.
For real, I'm back today after a couple of days and there are so many removed comments. Why can't we have nice things, people? *groans*
I honestly can't tell if
removed by mod
was removed by mod, or just an italicized removed by mod.
My browser is set to default to French (which I speak / am still learning) and to me it says
so this one is real. A visual distinction could be nice, that might be a decent newcomer contribution to the codebase.
@nutomic @dessalines good user feedback here.
I'm not sure if that actually tagged them.. you might need to append
@lemmy.mlto it. testing @[email protected]testing 2 @lemmy.ml@[email protected]
Bud, this is like going to someone's house for a party and complaining that they don't have your favorite beer. How about you go for a beer run?
I didn't say anything was in a great state. I just said this software is like a party, no one's here to serve you. You aren't going to be catered-to because your eyeballs are worth selling. So if you want it to happen, help out. That's how it works.
we just think you're a prick, this isnt about what you're saying, it's about how you're saying it
Hell, even if it isn't strictly a mod tool, being able to do this from someone's profile page would be good.
Wholeheartedly agree
