  • I can see what you mean by that although for this case in an odd manner you actually want to highlight this problem.

    This is another parallel system that was shown in this crazy GDC talk: 1,500 Slot Machines Walk into a Bar: Adventures in Quantity Over Quality

    For background context Alex Schwartz and Ziba Scott launched premium mobile games to the Google Play Store in 2013 which unfortunately didn't "help in making our money back and being able to make enough money to make the next game". After having explored the storefront and finding nefarious apps and junk reskined clones everywhere they decided to intentionally flood the Google Play Store with junk slot machine games as a joke/experiment.

    "There was a point in here that I don't think was drilled home as hard as it could have been which was... if people are sneaking by with garbage the thing that we did was to put a huge neon sign with an arrow pointing at ourselves and the garbage next to us; illuminating the entire underbelly of dark weird App Store shit and so the idea that if you do it at scale clearly they're(Google's) going to notice and clearly they're(Google's) going to change the terms of service slowly to ice you out.

    Hopefully others went down with us in the wake of that. Like we provided the perfect targeted spot to drop the missile uh so hopefully, hopefully that helped get rid of duplicate apps that were also in the area."

  • Apologies I don't really understand what you mean by that

    I'm guessing this is a referral to the US election?

  • So u want to silence someone for their beliefs.

    Allowing people to spout whatever nonsense and cause harm to others is reckless at best, ignorant and insane at worst. I'm old but not old enough to have dementia.

    Free speach does not mean u have a right to not be offended.

    The argument of free speech so hollow, I've seen it used by right-wingers as a rallying cry when in reality free speech is free yes but simutaneously it does not mean free of consequences.

    He's in violation of our TOS and probably several others which reminds me @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone you'll want to see the last image with dumbass Zuck at the top

  • Reports don't just go to mods, they go to admins as well.

    You're not wrong. Again however if the mod dismisses the report, the admin(s) would be unaware of the report unless they check the All tab. On P.D. anyways the report queue defaults to Unread, not sure if that can be changed on the newer instance versions.

    And you can usually contact admins in other ways on most instances.

    Again true, however [a user who's already made a report] is it highly likely that they'd message the admins for an update? maybe?

    It's a non-zero possibility, but for my own report experience I actually just send a report and forget about it (unless I'm personally looking and pondering the reports queued on P.D's report page, earlier last year I tried to send messages to users who made reports saying thank yous or updates on what happened to their reports).

    For any users here please comment if you've asked for an update I'm actually genuinely curious what the frequency is.

    Edit:Ah right I just remembered that I wanted to request for a feature that community moderators can't dismiss the report that's made about them. This is the same copyright loophole system that exists in Youtube.

    "The claimant gets to review the dispute, the guy who wants to have my song; he gets to decide if he actually owns my song."

    This is the same contradictory system in a slightly different manner:The defendant gets to review the dispute, the guy who's been reported; they get to decide whether to accept or reject the report.

    I noticed this paradox earlier last year when I made some terrible posts and asked the P.D. team to review the reports made on me as I didn't want to fall into this trap.

  • Based on the number of dislikes I have to imagine that someone out there might have made reports which were probably and unfortunately 'handled/managed' by UniversalMonk as that's how the current moderation system works:

    Currently [as of Jan 12, 2025]If a report is sent, both the community moderator(s) and admin(s) are able to see and handle the report.

    • This has the unfortunate side effect where if the moderator has no qualms and dismisses the report it can become unlikely that anyone would know what's going on.

    The user who made the report might then unfortunately think that the admin(s) are condoning the post/content that's shared on their platform which might not actually be the case.

    At this point I'm just going to ask that: if anyone has any posts or comments that they'd like to report, please feel free to also shoot me a Direct Message (DM). I'm going to preempt and say that while I can't promise that I'll respond immediately, I can at least guarantee that I'll reply back saying that I have seen your message.

  • USB gets simpler with new speed-focused labeling system replacing technical jargon

    Jump

  • It's actually different and better as the previous naming scheme was actually horrendous (trying to explain it to customers was a nightmare).

    Cause previously if you wanted to figure out what speed of USB port you were getting you'd have to look up the table because me telling you that a port was USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 doesn't tell you jack shit.

    Can you see how cursed this is for non-tech savvy people? Absolutely terrible.

    Thankfully now the new naming scheme will be:USB +

    • 5 Gbps
    • 10 Gbps
    • 20 Gbps
    • 40 Gbps

    So the xkcd meme actually isn't relevant here.

  • I could be wrong but to me it seems that Gray Rose's actions stem from paranoia as she was traumatized by the loss of her friend.

    I'm honestly hoping that she still lives so that she can learn that Sumire-chan and the gang are also victims of the cruel system
