First, Lemmy is not reddit. They are similar platforms, but they share still drastically different. More importantly, I'm specifically talking about the platform, not the general idea of managing a "community" in the broader sense.

For example, knowing modlogs exist and understanding the modlogs and that they are public. Also understanding how users from different instances interact with other instances. Where to find the moderator tools and information regarding moderation.

It seems you want to run a community entirely off of a mobile device using an app, but none of the apps are really fully compatible with moderation tools. The best way to moderate is via a browser.

There's just more to running a community than just clicking the create button, deciding on a name, and posting content.

Since you got the answer you were looking for. I'd like to address this:

My doctor said if I have ADHD, that it's not bad enough to do anything about.

That response is just awful. How would they know? If they knew the bare minimum about these types of conditions, then they would never say anything like that (i.e. masking symptoms to try to 'fit in' and such). Otherwise, if they don't know enough about the subject, then they shouldn't be acting like they do. A doctor should be familiar with saying something like "let me look into that more."

Undiagnosed and unmanaged ADHD (and/or autism and general anxiety disorder, which are comorbidities) leads to a drastic increase of the likelihood of developing drug abuse and addiction, and even an increase in mortality rates and decreased life expectancy (link) among other issues.

To be completely honest, I suggest getting to know Lemmy first. Trying to run a community when you can't even figure out how to create one is a sign that you'll run into other even bigger walls. It's definitely like trying to run before you can even walk.

Thank you for using the actual movie art

But at what cost?

That absolves people from continuing that exact issue?

It takes mere seconds to find a better copy, if not the original.

A meme made with watercolors? That's amazing.

At least with Azerty, you don't run into it in the wild.

The worst layout is alphabetical, because sometimes you are forced to use it.

~~They will also delete any comments that complain about AI at all, even though there is no rule against it.~~

/--edit--/
After second look, that's not entirely true, but they definitely have a trigger finger for it and leave plenty of other "off-topic" comments.

Considering the amount of posts deleted, it should have just been locked instead of nuking comments with a negative view of AI

Here's the thread in the screenshot:

Also, here you can see other's seem to think this was an attempt to silence dissent (though, I don't think that this coming from drag is a great point for it):

Just look at this completely insane comment from an instance admin:

I got a DM from a brand new user created on lemm.ee that is using my username. The DM came through at 3 minutes and 10 seconds of the account being created.

Add filter for URLs (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I would greatly like to be able to filter posts that link to certain domains.

For example, I want to filter all posts that link to the gamingonlinux website, because the owner of that website sucks and I find that site to be overall useless.

I guess that this 50501 movement has somehow gained some recent popularity from somewhere, but the sheer volume of content, communities, and even instances seems weird.

Where did this all come from and why did it seem to come as a sudden flood?

Is there a way to limit the size of posts in the "full" layout? I prefer this style over the cards, but some posts are really.... really.........reaaaallly long.

Does anyone happen to know of a list of items that can burn?

For example, if I want to set off a fire trap but don't want to lose an item.

Thanks!

Today, I changed the batteries in all my smoke detectors. I noticed that the battery light in one was blinking. Instead of only replacing the one with a new normal 9v battery, I ordered a pack of 10-year lithium 9v batteries and replaced them all. Now I don't have to worry about changing them for a handful of years.

Edit - Funnily enough, dinner put them to the test. I was going to test them tomorrow when the kiddo is at daycare.

I noticed the other day that the majority of the content on [email protected] are made by accounts that are deleted after making some posts. Most often no comments are made by these burner accounts, but sometimes they will create a new separate account to respond to comments.

Is there any real privacy benefits for this over something like having a single separate account you post only images and no text posts?

Is there a tool that facilities creating short-term accounts like this?
