    What do you mean by if users don’t read instructions the fediverse has no hope to survive?

    Users are one of the four pillars on which the Fediverse stands. Their contribution is both to exist and to contribute financially to the Fediverse. A functionally illiterate user can’t even understand how and where it’s best to contribute. If these are the users of the Fediverse, then they will be prey to scammers or commercial platforms.

    Literacy on instagram etc. is probably not very high, yet it’s one of the biggest platforms.

    Commercial platforms have a business unit dedicated to capturing the illiterate, the distracted, and the not-so-intelligent.

    Also making it clearer what the app supports doesn’t double the work for devs.

    Creating two apps almost creates double work. Advising developers to create two apps is cruel…

    You’re right, but it’s also important not to be subjected to the thousands of requests from the community. I’m a Lemmy administrator, and initially I only allowed communities to be created by request. I can say that many of those who asked me to start a community didn’t even bother to follow it… Similarly, users continually ask software and app developers to add unnecessary features that burden developers with commitments and man-hours that rarely yield any benefits.

    It’s certainly right to evaluate users’ needs, but developers have a primary ethical duty to take care of themselves and avoid burnout. Giving developers a nervous breakdown is the easiest way to kill the Fediverse!

    It’s not closure, but a simple plea for love and kindness.

    The Fediverse is based on four pillars:

    1. Software developers (Mastodon, Lemmy, Friendica, Piefed, etc.)
    2. Server administrators (mastodon.social, lemmy.ml, friendica.world, piefed.social, etc.)
    3. App developers (Fedilab, Jerboa, Raccoon, Blorp, etc.)
    4. The user community

    Honestly, you can’t ask app developers to double their work (development, release, store registration, updates, etc.) because users don’t read the instructions! 🤣

    Users have a huge responsibility: to support, test, and fund the volunteer community (1, 2, and 3). If users don’t even want to read the instructions, then the Fediverse has no hope of surviving. Those users deserve to be devoured and digested by Big Tech, by profiling logic, and by the predatory attention economy. Amen

    in this circlejerk called lemmy.ml, people has very shaky legs

    Lemmy is not Reddit. Instances are administered by administrators who dictate the general rules and each community is managed by moderators who dictate specific rules. In this case, you are posting provocative comments, forcing the rules of the community in which this discussion is developing and going against the common feeling of that community (= more briefly, you are trolling). If you do not agree with the tone that is developing in a certain community, you can mute it. Not only is no one forcing you to comment, but it is not advisable to do so, because here people do not want to argue, but to discuss. In particular, you are doing something very incorrect: you are criticizing the methods and environment of a community that resides in an instance other than the one you are registered in. This is not acceptable! As far as I am concerned, no one should be allowed to give lessons to those who manage instances other than the one you are registered in. This way of doing things leads to a worsening of the climate of the discussion, to tensions between administrators and above all to the fact that I, as administrator of Poliverso, have to receive mountains of reports.

    The Fediverso is beautiful because everyone can go to the places where they can feel better, but it should not be used to ruin the discussion environment for those who do not think like you.

    Nothing much better here.

    I’m sorry that you, who are a user of mine on feddit.it, make these unfounded statements.

    Today they canceled me one comment cause of a “Fuck Putin”, while arguing with a Russian troll.

    In here, each instance and each community are autonomous and therefore the sensibilities of moderators and administrators can also be different.

    The most important thing is to read the rules of the community and those of the instance that hosts you. But if you believe you have been unfairly banned, you can contact the moderator presenting your arguments without victimism and without rancor.

    Sorry if it’s OT, but I wanted to thank you! I thank you for this post, because it helped me identify one of our racist users who had replied to you and who had nested in our instance. Unfortunately we hadn’t noticed him because he only wrote in English and only on the communities of other instances 😁. Posts like yours can also be used like luminol to find traces of biological fluids to eliminate…😁 😄 🤣

  • Poliverso@feddit.ittoFediverse@lemmy.world•What is going on with KbinEnglish

    Kbin was a fantastic project and its developer deserves all our respect.

    Unfortunately Kbin suffered a perfect storm that overwhelmed him: -he was born at the wrong time; indeed: he was born at a very right time! That is, just before migration from Reddit reached its peak

    • it was too immature and too good at the same time: users saw how good it was and dived into it en masse
    • as if that wasn’t enough, even more users flocked to Kbin due to a well-known Fediverse popularizer, blinded by ideological hatred towards the Lemmy developers, who recommended it to everyone as the best alternative to Reddit, saying something lie: immature software like Kbin CAN NEVER be a better alternative than mature software like Lemmy (oh yes, congratulations FediTips: you actively contributed to sinking the Kbin boat!)
    • the developer was alone, a very normal circumstance for a project in development; but this led to an absurd overload and a totally destabilizing overexposure!
    • finally, the usual dynamic of free software has struck again: herds and herds of ignorant, selfish, resentful people lacking any empathy began to DEMAND improvements, modifications and corrections to a software that (I repeat once again) was still immature, without giving ANYTHING, and when I say NOTHING I mean without financing the project.

    I completely understand that the developer went into burnout! The meltdown of lone developers is a very frequent phenomenon in free software… These pressures are almost impossible to bear: to bear them you need to have balls of steel, decent financial resources, many true friends and a pathological level of enthusiasm and self-esteem to resist such strong emotional pressure.
