it doesn't seem to be server specific because once prompted there is no way to use the account again, even if you decided to just not use a server that may have these settings set.

no, you're also effectively locked out of any participation unless you provide an email address and phone number, which they won't even tell you about in advance but use dark patterns and gaslighting that they noticed "suspicious activity" to step by step first ask you for an email and then once that is validated they prompt you for a phone number. the only thing they don't do yet is ask for ID.

I can sell you a copy of lemmys source code, are you interested?

[–] [email protected] 55 points 6 months ago

sure they do, you're one of them

you can enable end to end encryption, it's optional. I don't think it's enabled by default.

until 0.19.4 is released, clients are supposed to suppress comment contents when the comment is either marked as removed (moderator) or deleted (creator).

they might decide to show contents to site admins or community moderators anyway, but some clients did not implement this properly and show the original content to all users.

this is of course not something that should have been available to everyone in the first place, which is why this is being fixed in 0.19.4.

depending on the client, you should still see some kind of indicator above the comment text that shows it was removed or deleted, in this case removed.

won't be the case for much longer, the next lemmy release is removing that.

i suggest you remove this quote and summarize it with fewer details if you need to have it there in the first place. you're effectively advertising for them now and undoing the moderator action of removing this advertisement.

reporting absolutely helps. it increases visibility for content that slipped through automated moderation and having more reports for content indicates urgency.

at that point you'll just discourage any new users if they have to gamble on whether or not their content is actually seen by anyone. account age really isn't a good indicator of anything other than soemone being dedicated enough to spam. considering this isn't the first wave of csam attacks, i can assure you that whoever is targeting lemmy with this is determined enough that account age won't deter them for long, they'll just have to slightly adjust their playbook.

that doesn't do anything, they'll just register accounts in advance and wait some days.

we've even had spam recently from accounts that had been dormant for months, although it was a different kind of spam.

account deletion does not federate in general, only banning (+ content removal) does
