  • took an image of a duck

  • Aotearoa/New Zealand by any chance? Or maybe Australia?

    It looks like a Pacific Black duck hybrid, probably Pacific Black Duck x Mallard

  • Sharing posts across instances

    Jump

  • And smart clients/UIs like tesseract realise that the link is to a remote lemmy instance, and then give you the option of viewing it remotely or from your own instances perspective

  • Any place with anonymous/ephermal account and posts as the default is going to attract the worst people in the world....

  • I just want to clarify. The only people getting banned for remote comments are people who knowingly and explicitly gatekeep other folks identity in response to this topic coming up. They are banned so that they don't start appearing in blahaj communities with the very people they're invalidating.

    To me, there's no difference. If someone's response to this topic coming up is to double down on gatekeeping, it doesn't make them any less harmful just because they did it outside of a blåhaj community.

  • Do not confront the people doing bad things

    That's not the rule. The rule is don't misgender them.

    If you can't use their pronouns or otherwise interact with them without invalidating their identity, then, you aren't to interact with them.

  • Are there active LGBT communities in Spanish?

  • Alguien robo mi telefono en Santiago, pero ella tiene muchos lugares excelentes para hamburguesas y cervezas :)

  • I'm super worried about my hairline regression

    Jump

  • Up to 7 years or so to get back as much as you're going to get back.

  • I'm super worried about my hairline regression

    Jump

  • The rough rule of thumb is that once HRT takes care of your T levels, your hairline can regrow to approximately where it was 7 years prior. There are no guarantees, and it's a very rough rule of thumb, but regrowth is a thing :)

  • Can you create/moderate a community on an instance other than your own?

    Jump

  • Reports federate, in a limited way. They federate to the instance the community is hosted on, the instance the reported user is hosted on, the instance the reporting user is hosted on (well technically, it doesn't federate to the last one, as that is where it started). I don't believe that a report will federate to a remote instance that doesn't meet one of those criteria, even if it hosts a moderator for the community, but I'm not certain about this one.

    Either way, report resolutions don't directly federate, so resolving a report doesn't resolve it on the other instances. It looks like they federate, because post removal from a mod federates, and removing a post auto closes the report. However, a report that was spurious or a troll or whatever that isn't going to be actioned, has to be manually closed down on each instance it federates to.

  • What is the name of the sexuality of being into the opposite gender and willing to date the same gender but not finding anyone of the same gender attractive?

    Jump

  • I'm panromantic, but attracted to men, however I only date women and gender diverse folk on that end of the gender spectrum. My partner is a woman :)

  • I'm not the OP, but their question was pretty much describing me.

    For me, it's about intimacy. I value intimacy. Hugging, kissing, touching, holding hands, sharing moments, laying on the couch together watching TV etc. Those are things that I don't do with my friends, and aren't things that I'm looking for from my friends.

    Asexual folk have developed language that talks about the way they navigate similar situations. Sex averse, sex neutral and sex positive. So even though I'm not ace, the terms apply in a similar way to my relationships. Using these terms, I would describe myself as sex neutral. Which is to say that I don't seek it out, and I don't miss it. Yet, it's also a very strong form of intimacy, which I value a great deal, and as an expression of intimacy, it's very much something I'm happy to share with my partner.

  • That's pretty much me. I don't really have a name for it. I just call myself queer, or sometimes panromantic.

  • Yo tambien! Soy australiania, pero hablo espanol :)

  • Why can't we go back to small phones?

    Jump

  • Phones are already too small. I use a fold because it's the only way I can get a decent sized phone now!

  • I got banned from 169 on Lemmy world but I have no idea what I did.

  • If someone back then was banned for gatekeeping or misgendering and won't do that anymore, not only will they not be banned in "retaliation", their banned account will be unbanned. All they need to do is reach out to me

    If someone back then was banned for gatekeeping and misgendering, but didn't do those things, not only will they not be banned in "retaliation", their banned account will be unbanned. All they need to do is reach out to me.

    If someone back then was banned for gatekeeping and misgendering and they don't reach out to me, I still I won't ban their new account if I become aware of it, because the point of all of this is to make it clear that gatekeeping and misgendering are not on. If they're not doing that on their second account, their second account won't get banned, because the first ban achieved its purpose.

    tl;dr - Whoever they are, if they're not gatekeeping and misgendering folk, they'll be fine.

  • So what about all the people who were banned from blahaj back in december for dissent?

    No one was banned for dissent. People were banned for gatekeeping, misgendering and repeatedly and/or deliberately misgendering folk.

    Most people who were banned for "Gatekeeping" then and since then were really just banned because the admins didn't like them despite them dispite not breaking rules.

    The rule is don't misgender and gatekeep other folks and block or ignore them if you can't deal with their identity or pronouns. The modlog is right there. If you can find a single instance of someone getting banned without breaking that or another rule, I want to know about it
