A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Even before the API debacle, Reddit has had some serious issue, and every one of those issues is u/spez. He can't just fight his way through this. The incentive to leave has always been there, and now he's pushing us over the edge, and he's gonna try to win us back with some empty words.

This is the same guy who stealth edited a comment of a user he was angry with and then justified his decision by saying he grew up being a troll on the internet. Leave the troll's playground and watch it crumble. Reddit isn't spez. It's all of us.

How does this work on Lemmy? Can mods edit users posts?

[–] Skelectus@suppo.fi 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I don't think lemmy provides tools for that (good), so normal moderators, can't do this. With direct access to the server, maybe. So make sure your server admin isn't spez.

The person running an instance has access to the database of that instance and can do whatever they want with the data in that database.

Only 1 server is sending the changes to the other servers? So if the instance is the source, the same thing would happen? Or will most servers have the data already by then, and not receive updates?

If you view the data from Beehaw's interface, you see the data of Beehaw's database. If you view the data from Lemmy.world's interface you see the data of Lemmy.world's database. There's no guarantee of consistency between the databases of different instances.
