dd?

• Lemmy: Thunder
• Maps: Organic Maps
• Weather: Breezy
• Tuner: Noteworthy Tuner
• Matrix: Element Android (it’s got a lot of issues, but, as far as I can tell, it’s the best that there currently is)

Of course. My inquiry was out of theoretical curiosity, and not so much anything practicaly useful for security, or privacy.

From what I can see, Macrodroid does not appear to be opensource, but thank you for the suggestion.

It’s closed source, and it costs money.

Thank you for the apology 😊 I can understand how my post could’ve been construed as being lazy.

??? Why don’t you tap it and see.

I did try that. Nothing appeared to happen, or change on my end; however, I now realize what the issue was. The first thought that I had, when I first noticed that Icon, was actually the exact same as that which you said; it just never occured to me that I could be on the same instance as the comments in question. So, when I tried clicking that icon, I was clicking it on a post that was from Lemmy.world – the same instance that I am on. As such, I noticed no change in the displayed content – the page would appear to load, but nothing would actually change. This is, of course, to be expected – I just didn’t put 2 and 2 together. I apologize if my inquiry seemed lazy, or thoughtless.

As an aside, In my defence, the UI also doesn’t necessarily tell you what the icon does. If you hover your mouse over it, you will see the following:

Imo “link” isn’t exactly descriptive, as to the button’s purpose.

likely will cause issues at some point

What sort of issues?

It appears that I do have the “Show context” button (granted it’s a little hard to notice at first), but it appears to not be functioning properly. I just tested it in this thread by clicking “Show context” for this comment, and instead of showing me this comment, as I would expect, it instead showed me this comment.

Can you see if a moderator has removed comments from a thread?

Yes, but it involves sorting through the community modlog.

I wonder if this feature could be implemented – it would just be another sorting option in comment sections – assuming that the server actually stores this data.

Can you see the content of the removed comments?

No. Not even mods/admins can.

From what I can see in the modlog, it appears that you can see the content of comments, but just not the content of posts. It seems to treat comments as post titles in the log. What’s also weird is that they have links associated with them which appear to point at nothing. Perhaps they are supposed to point to the original comment/post?

Are moderators able to specify motive for the specific removal?

Yes, but to be honest, I have no idea where that reason goes or who it is visible to

It looks like you can see it underneath the removed item in a little bit of text that states “Reason”, and then the reasoning.

Go to filter by action and choose “removing comments”

That’s only within the modlog, though. I’m talking about withint the comment thread for a post. As I stated:

Also, can you see mod removals within a comment thread? Or is it only in the modlog that you can see removals?

You wont be able to see any reply context?

EDIT: Upon testing here, it appears not. That makes it rather unuseable, does it not?

Cool! However, while it does show the full log of removals, it appears that I can’t see the original content of the post – I can only see that a post with a title was removed. Also, can you see mod removals within a comment thread? Or is it only in the modlog that you can see removals?

Flatpak – It’s not without it’s own issues, of course, but it does the job. I’m not fan of how snaps are designed, and I don’t think canonical is trustworthy enough to run a packaging format. Appimages are really just not good for widespread adoption. They do what they are designed to do well, but I don’t think it’s wide to use them as a main package format.

Idk anything about that community, but I feel like it’s safe to assume that Discord isn’t going to take kindly to the existence of a server that, from the name, appears to be centered around piracy. I haven’t checked (someone please correct me if I’m wrong), but I feel like it’s safe to assume that piracy is something that would violate Discord’s ToS. Just use Matrix – I implore you.

I’ve heard that ReFS is supposedly replacing NTFS, on Windows.

I feel like it’s rather pointless to try and contort discord to be something that it’s not. If you are truly concerned about your privacy, then your best move is to just use something else. An example of an alternative would be Matrix.

Y’all don’t update your services?

That’s a fine recommendation! Thank you!

Your account data is also not protected

Do you just mean that your messages, for example, are stored on the server, and can thus be deleted by the server admin? Would you mind elaborating?
