With an overall vote of 3-2, with me voting in favor of removal, we have removed the lolicon exception to the type of content that is allowed on this instance.
There was not any lolicon posted as of the writing of this post. Even if there was, no post-hoc action would be taken other than removal of said content.
However, should said content be posted in the future, steps will be taken up to and including bans being handed out.
EDIT: Since I am not sure how long it will take for the rule change to propagate to other servers, here is what the rules are now.
You must be at least 18 years of age.
No content that is illegal under US Law.
Do not mute/block/ban evade.
Do not “Dox” other users.
NSFW content MUST be tagged appropriately.
Please do not spam and/or advertise.
It is expected that a certain level of civility is maintained. Please do not troll, harass, or abuse other users.
I've made a number of improvements since the last time I was posting about my extension. The update is now available on both Firefox and Chrome web stores.
TLDR: See the respective download pages on Firefox & Chrome. The screenshots and features list are mostly self-explanatory.
Note on versions:
Firefox has a more recent 1.2.1 version, because my build script missed some files while uploading v1.2.0. It doesn't look like Chrome had this issue.
I'm uploading v1.2.2 to both stores today, which will bring the two missing features to Chrome as well. After 1.2.2, all browsers should have the same features. See
I noticed that when I sort by active or hot, it looks like the results have been staying completely the same for a past week or so, even when new posts are being made and getting comments and votes. Even on the "all" page, active and hot appear to be stuck. I checked a few other Lemmy instances, and their active and hot sorts seem to be fine, so I don't think it's a bug in the software.
Often times, it should show up as a search result. If not, hard refresh the lemmy page and search a second time. This is necessary if the server didn't know about the community before to actually show the result, since federation does take some time.
I figured you guys should probably know what you're signing up for before getting too far.
I'm a hobbyist and new to running my own services. This server is running on a smol vultr instance that also hosts my pleroma and thelounge instances, so I'm not looking to accept too many new members; especially because I'm too broke to upgrade for the time being.
I expect to use slightly more strict rules here than I do for my pleroma instance in terms of moderation, but honestly I hope that such things won't be needed at all.
