Spam and porn are flooding kbin already

There is a substantial amount of spam and NSFW posts on the All page coming through already. Most NSFW posts aren't being tagged as such and are coming right through. I am not sure how this can be weathered but we need something in place fairly soon, I feel like we are days away from rivers of bad stuff, especially via some of...

If posts are tagged nfsw, then they'll be blurred, but unfortunately people aren't consistently using the nsfw tag. Most of the nsfw content is coming from lemmynsfw.com - I've asked one of the admins over there if they can just auto-apply the tag to any post on their instance with media attached.

They replied that they are looking into it.

After trying to explain how easy it is to create a kbin account to a few of them, I'd say there aren't enough chromosomes in that picture.

I've just been blocking the German communities. I'll never be able to interact with them anyway.

I've had this happen a couple times too. I thought it was a fluke and I just lost it, but it's visible in comments from my profile.

It hardly matters right now with how low engagement is due to low population, but it will only be a matter of time before these features are necessary. I'd definitely like to see these implemented as well.

Star Trek: Discovery’s upcoming fifth season will be its final voyage (www.theverge.com)

I really don't understand the hate this show got. I really enjoyed it! A unique concept, story driven - season long plot arcs, great acting, incredible visuals, and fantastic characters. Sure there was some goofy stuff in there too, but star trek always has goofy shit....

It really is weird... I don't really want my depravity public knowledge. I'm hesitant on what I upvote/downvote just because someone may at some point be able to see and use that information.

@Brunbrun6766
Actually, I think it is an issue with the kbin/lemmy cross-platform functionality, especially since some lemmy instances don't even allow downvotes (I think Beehaw is one?)
The way lemmy handles voting and boosting isn't quite the same I believe, so I think it's getting borked with federation.

With all the AI in the news lately, I don't know if it's the right time to commission a series based on, not just sentience in robots, but further in the storyline - robots breaking into telepathy.

McBinary,

Yeah, maybe. I would worry there isn't enough content for a TV show in the whole robot series. Those books were pretty short.

Although that didn't stop apple from making a whole season out of the first few chapters of the first foundation book.

@GuyDudeman I'd settle for one sentence at this point. He's fucking unhealthy and 80, he'd die in prison with just one conviction.

@dope are you lost? What does your cum splattered selfy have to do with news? I'm guessing you linked the wrong picture?

What free apps and games are good to put on an android phone?

So ive had a phone for a bit now but i struggle at finding game sand apps to put on it especially free ones. its kinda mid range dphone it cant run genshin impact at all but it runs stuff like battle cats really well i also struggle at finding good or useful apps to download so if you know any please suggest some or something.

@tallwookie it would be a damn shame if all the subs with scab mods that don't have 3rd party mod tools got spammed with a bunch of gay porn they can't figure out how to remove.

It's got potential, but the mobile website is still a better experience at the moment.

I'm seeing timeouts and javalang errors constantly in the app.

Absolutely not, but the fact of the matter is they are the ones that will be paying for it's advancement and will be the first to the goalposts.

Well, to add to it - they have also said that if mods refuse to moderate they will allow someone else to take their place and then if that person wants the sub open - it'll be reopened.

Its just corpo double-speak to say that they are going to reopen blackout subs.

What's an inexpensive or low-quality item that you ended up loving and keeping for years?

I bought a lift-top coffee table from a big box store almost a decade ago. It's entirely particle board and has seen better days cosmetically, but it's probably my single favorite piece of furniture. It's immensely practical for meals, using a laptop, or just bringing your remote/drink/whatever closer to your hand when laying...

I use this same stuff to tie up tomato vines to trellis in my garden

Ninja has a nice set of non stick pans that arent super expensive that I've been eyeing to replace my tfal pans. This is pretty much the same mindset I'm going with - replace every 5-7 years with another inexpensive set.

I've used Relay for over a decade. That app is reddit to me. I however do find the official app unusable.

@yay

First off, I love this, and I'm glad you're getting this going!

However, is there any way you can enforce a NSFW tag on every post with media attached to it on the lemmynsfw instance?
I really want to keep seeing everything there it's appropriate to view it, but a lot of posts are slipping through without a NSFW tag on them and show up with spread eagles on people's main page.
