How does it work when you ask to moderate a federated magazine?

[–] MeccAnon@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Hi, not sure if this is the right thread but here goes.

Issue:
Threads do not seem to federate properly.

Description:
Until a month ago or so, submitting a thread to a federated instance (tested on: feddit.it, sh.itjust.works) threw an error page, but the thread was regularly posted. Example: https://feddit.it/post/1868675

As of at least 2 weeks ago, the error page remains but threads do not federate anymore. Example:
https://kbin.social/m/teoriamusicale@feddit.it/t/546143/Analisi-di-Pezzi-Pop-5-Faith-Hill-The-Way-You

If it can be of help, posts, links and comments seem properly federated to the same abovementioned instances, i.e. appear on target instances within a few seconds. No error displayed when submitting.

Hope this can be addressed sooner or later. Right now I'm using local accounts on those instances to work this around.

Right? I remember watching some time ago a AI-generated video of an actress - I think it was Kirsten Stewart - doing a monologue. It was eerily undistinguishable from reality. This is happening, and actors have all the rights to be upset by it until proper compensation rules are in place.

I'm in read only mode, only to follow a couple of celebrities and otherwise watch the dumpster fire.

The RNC can’t even find enough testicular fortitude to tell Trump to fuck off.

They need Trump's rabid following to have any chance in the upcoming election, simple as that. Relying on the Dem's inanity and self-sabotage tendencies is too much of a risk, so they are resigned to kiss the orange oaf's arse to save their seats.

I'm sure a vast majority of the Rep MP's is secretly hoping Trump gets properly incarcerated and invalidated in some way from running, so that they can say "sorry, not our fault" and return to autonomy.

Not gonna lie, I ship those two a little bit. <3

Among all Fediverse softwares, Kbin is the one I like the most - from the clean interface to the local community, which I really like - just the right balance between serious topics and memes, and decent comment quality.

Even if I'm most active on some federated communities, I don't plan to switch anytime soon.

The only headscratcher that - more than "not like", just puzzled me a bit - is the different naming convention (magazines, microblogs, etc.), but again it's a small thing.

My eyesight is getting shot by looking at a monitor for so many hours, both at work and off work, so Doc said to switch to analogue - if I have to read something, let it be books.

I'm into pretty much all genres, so if there is any book you particularly like or recommend, I'm all ears (and eyes)!

EDIT: thanks for the great suggestions, I'm checking all of them!!!

I feel you. I hate that question. I'm over 50, don't have kids and the reasons are only mine. And my wife's.

Not considering vaporware or failed products (e.g. Eolo car):

  • The Esperanto language. (Yes, I'm old)

  • NFTs.

  • Blockchain. Yes, it has its use, but it's not the pervasive, all-use game changer it was claimed to be.

  • Sony Betamax. Pity because it was better than VHS.

  • New Coke. Nuff said.

I got in a rabbit hole of his blog articles and my word, this poor guy really had it bad his whole life. I'm glad he's better now.

 

Turkey is expected to reverse some of the unorthodox economic policies of President Erdogan.
