I believe you can send DMs over the Matrix protocol. I’ve never looked into it.

Matrix has some Lemmy integration already and perhaps more in the future.

Those two things don’t seem conflicting. Some bad actor right now could upload illegal content to lemmy.world. It’s not like lemmy.world can defederate with itself as a solution. It must deal with it by deleting the content. An instance could potentially delete illegal content coming from everywhere on the lemmyverse. This would take a lot of work so if you didn’t want to bother doing that for instances other than your own you would defederate.

If some instance owner for whatever reason decided to take on this work either manually or with some automated process that allowed an instance to exist that is federated with everything, but clear of illegal content then it would be an appealing instance. Assuming I could curate my own instance block list.

Sure. This isn’t a solution to the problem lemmy.world is having. I just think this feature should exist.

It won’t protect a server from getting illegal content on their drives. Best to defederate if that is happening and can’t be dealt with otherwise. If you have some other method of dealing with illegal content on your server and wanted to host a Lemmy instance that is federated with everything it would only be appealing to me if I could block instances myself.

If we could control instance level blocking on a user level it would be much more feasible.

Between the legs must be a supremely comfortable spot for a cat.

I concur with most everyone else on going to a vet. It’s usually a sign of being in pain. Possibly from a urinary tract infection or the like. Hopefully resolved by something simple like antibiotics.

Those are some nice stairs. 👀

That is a beautiful cat.

Fig is actually an old man and too gentle to ever kill any birds or squirrels.

I believe he is a burmese cat.

It seems that you can make the comments appear by refreshing once the page is already loaded. At least as far as the webapp goes.

Will the old group of moderators be removed and replaced?
