When I tap the link to get the app on the GitHub page, TestFlight opens, but says the Beta program is full. Is there a plan to expand the beta?

This level of editorial influence sounds to me like Reddit is becoming more of a media publisher/editor instead of just a platform, which would (should) remove their protection from defamation & other law suits based on content published on the site…

Oh yay!! I’m glad they’ve already made the update to the codebase. I wasn’t expecting it to be that fast lol.

You’re welcome to point people here if you want! Though, that one could be for Lemmy updates only & they could be cross-posted to this one too! Whatever you’d like to do :)

We actually don’t want to focus on Reddit lol, it probably comes across that way because we’re mostly Reddit refugees who loved best of Redditor updates :). I’m going to be posting from AskAManager & others too, but will probably wait for the character limit update.

Hey - I’m happy to help mod. I’m also modding a couple of other sub replacements :)

Btw, you can promote people to mods by clicking the 3 dots under their comment & clicking to appoint (I think that’s the word they use) as a mod. I had to learn that myself lol

That’s not hard

[–] Barack_Ollama 1 points 1 year ago

In practice you’re correct, but legally, things are more complicated. There are now various laws (GDPR the most notable) that require, among other things, for platforms to delete all data associated with a user upon their request.

Meh, I miss some of my peeps, not all of them though lol

I was able to join! Had to sign up for Discord first before the link would work. FYI to @[email protected] & @[email protected]; let us know if you have trouble joining! We’ll chat more there :)

Added you :), since you mentioned doing stuff on discord, would you be able to create a group chat for us mods to chat about the path forward/etc. for this community? I don’t have a discord, but can create one. It looks like there isn’t a built-in group chat feature here on Lemmy :(

Do either of you know of a place where we can group chat? Google didn’t help much :(

[–] Barack_Ollama 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Yay! Figured it out XD. Under each of your comments, I tapped the 3 dots, then selected appoint as a mod :). Good to know for the future haha

[–] Barack_Ollama 1 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Sounds good! I’ll add you and @[email protected]. Now to figure out how to add mods :). I’ve never modded before :/ haha

Anyone want to help mod? (self.bestupdates)
 

Especially interested in help from anyone who has experience modding, but all are welcome.

Mlem for iOS crashes like every 30 seconds for me :( I’ve had to stick to the browser :(

 

Welcome! :)

 

I’ve tried to create a few BORU-style posts, but the fact that Lemmy has a 10k character limit to posts is proving limiting.

Any ideas/thoughts/suggestions for how to format/share stories within this limit are welcome!
