Looking for Group?
What happened?
PoE’s sub being one of the first to immediately setup their own lemmy server was one of the biggest badass sub moves of the entire thing.
Was this a community decision or a Reddit one?
And can we continue to expect your awesome support of the community on the federated servers?
Seriously, I’ve learned more about the game from the Reddit sub than the actual game. I think we all have. It would be incredible to see it continue away from such a corrupting influence like Reddit.
I assume by your decision question you're asking about the sub reopening? If that's the case, reddit is forcing subreddits open. Although some of the core mod team is resigning, we felt it'd be better to ease the new mods in with help, rather than have reddit fully replace the team and get random users.
As for the instance, it will be staying up! I'll try to keep poereddit.com up as well to mirror posts, but with reddit's API changes it will likely need to remain historical, through March 31st 2023.
God the subreddit continues to be unbelievably toxic.
Is there any chance we could get a bot to post GGG tweets to this community? I'd volunteer to write it, but another side project is not what I need right now
I’m learning python and am looking for beginner projects. On a scale of 1-10 how hard would this be for a beginner?
Estimations are hard enough at work, don't make me try one on Lemmy lol
It should be pretty straightforward, honestly. And it would also serve as a great way to help familiarize yourself with RESTful API concepts
If reddit magically goes back and fixes it's API issues, will this instance stay supported? Same question, but if the subreddit opens up (with NSFW or as normal?). Hoping the answer is yes, but wasn't sure what the plan was there.
I'm also not sure how technically this all works. For instance, I'm reading this on kbin, but obviously you guys have your own instance that is federated on pathofexile-discuss.... but what happens to the content if your instance goes down (or in the opposite direction, say it got so popular you couldn't afford to keep it up?).
Sorry for 20 questions! Trying to learn more in both cases while supporting the effort.
I plan to keep it up. It does cost a decent bit every month, but with Cloudflare caching most requests, it's not too bad. The place I need more help from is moderators that are familiar with the fediverse and PoE, currently it's just me This community is really cool, so it's really just banning bots or people coming here to post rude stuff and then leave.
If this instance goes down, I believe any content kbin or other sites have mirrored stays up, but new posts wouldn't be visible
If it costs too much I'll set up a Patreon or something, I already have a private one that covers maybe 80% of discord bot costs, but I don't post it anywhere because I don't want to ever profit off of this
So is marking the sub nsfw a viable option? It seems like Reddit is pushing back on that.
Have you considered the move r/politicalhumor made by giving everyone (limited) mod powers?
What are your thoughts on Captain Lance’s video?

Reddit is pushing back, but from talking to other mods in the mod coord, the only ones who have been fully demodded are ones that allowed explicit content. Just marking as NSFW seems okay, the linux subreddits have all done that. PoE even has good justification for going NSFW, the game is rated M for nudity, gore, violence, etc, and the subreddit does use profanity in about 25-30% of all posts (I checked via the poereddit.com database)
So, if the community wants it, I expect we'll do it unless something changes

I hadn't heard about it until you saw it, looking at it now huh, that's pretty interesting. I worry about the users who post every day but generally expose lightly-toxic behavior abusing this. I suppose it's only temporary though. Will keep an eye on it
What are your thoughts on Captain Lance’s video?
I saw that and I regret that we didn't make our poll 1) more simple and 2) more clear about what 'nsfw' means. Those were communication failures on our part. It was an honest mistake, but we should've caught it.
From what I understand they cannot run ads on NSFW subs, I would fully expect pushback from the admins on that. If not now, then in the future.
Yep. We expect it too. If the community chooses to continue to keep the subreddit NSFW (we'll re-poll every now and then), we'll push back on the admins about it. That said if they toggle the subreddit to non-nsfw and lock it that way, we'll just have to tell the community it's not possible
