Meta community to discuss anything about the yiffit.net instance.

It is a bit sobering and I'll have to rewrite it, but I think it's important for people to understand how lemmy works and how it can impact them, especially as we keep growing.

Please feel free to ask about any concerns you might have. As we keep settings things up, I want to improve the tools that our users have to improve their privacy.

Thank you <3

Good to know re: direct messages. I'll have to keep that in mind

This is all fairly standard for fediverse software, but many people do not know this. Lemmy is a bit better because it does not distribute images, but also worse regarding message deletion. While Mastodon servers delete content when they receive a delete request, Lemmy only hides it. The reasoning is that it's supposed to be able to help with moderation if admin and moderators can see what content was deleted, but I don't think it holds water. In the following months I will try to find a way to have Yiffit.net's server fully comply with deletion requests received by the author of some content, whether a local user or a remote one.
