  • The problem with anime is that they make new communities all the time about the latest thing or so. So you can’t really block communities and expect that to make anime disappear. And as others have said, blocking users also doesn’t help as they also keep changing.

    So what’s left? Block entire instances that seem to be mostly anime. That’s somewhere in your settings. Or stick to your subscribed feed. You can change the default feed also in your settings.

    And to clear up one misconception: Lemmy has no way of measuring your interest in topics and doesn’t track what links you click. The “everything” feed is just a combination of what everybody on Lemmy posts.









  • You mean as in an auctioning platform? That’s legally a bit harder to achieve, as auctions usually have the rule that if nobody outbids you, then your offer is binding. To enforce that, instances would need to verify your identity. That’s easy for a larger company to do, but not that easy for hobbyists.

    And then, to be federated, you would also need to make sure that other instances that you federate with uphold that standard.

    Also, if you do auctions across international borders, how do you even prosecute somebody who does not obey the rules of an auction?


  • Always phrase things in a positive way. No matter how good or thorough your review is, phrasing issues in a positive way and pointing out good things will make discussion about the code so much easier, and also obviously make the human interaction at work nicer.

    Also there may be novice people or people who just didn’t do a very good job with their pull requests. Don’t judge. Remember that you are not grading an exam, but reviewing is a cooperative task.
