Someone made a post that is at least irrelevant to !keepwriting@lemmy.world and is asking people to pay money for their ebook, which would be considered unsolicited advertising, i.e. spam.

edit: If you want to appoint me as mod, that's fine, then I'll take care of it.

I hope, this is the right place to ask:

I have the sub !diy_adventure_videos@lemmy.world. Now, in my profile, there are two of them; the former and also !diy_and_adventure_videos@lemmy.world (deleted by creator), which is empty, and I am not even a member, yet I am the moderator.

Might as well be my mistake, but I never noticed it before, so I guess it's a new thing?

Maybe the empty sub could be purged?

Sorry if this is not the right community for the question - this was the first one that came to my mind. I'm just wondering if I'm misinterpreting the meaning of the word 'local' in this context; or this is somehow pretty normal and due to the algorithm (in which case I'd like to know this algorithm a little more); or maybe because it's a bug.

UPDATE: I just reloaded the site, thinking I might have just pressed 'next' one too many times, making the algorithm run out of ideas. At the moment I don't see any more Evanston content, however, this has happened several times before, this is why I decided to write here, because it was the 4th/5th time already.

How can I turn off "Reply from $user" emails from noreply@lemmy.world?

They can get annoying when a post gets popular and receives a lot of replies.

Mod hasn't posted in a year.

I curate/mod !tycoon@lemmy.world, so I have a modicum of experience with Lemmy. :)

Requesting !spacex@lemmy.world, currently unmoderated.

I have disabled my VPN, and the image I'm upoading is a photo taken with my iPhone of a Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card. I would post the iCloud link but it has my name in it.

I appreciate th

Porn is up right now with trolls and ~50 down votes in 2 posts. I don't recognize any of the mods. I don't care to take over, but I will catch any flags in these off hours as I stay up late most of the time in California stretching into this time of day when peak evening hours are over the empty Pacific.

Hello friends, I'd like to take over as the mod for !masseffect@lemmy.world since the current mod seems to be inactive - there have been no comments, posts, or mod actions in two years from the current mod, @ChampagneEquinox@lemmy.world.

What happened there?

I used to upload images just fine when creating posts, but now I get an infinite loading spinner. Any help would be appreciated!

• I'm using the website.
• I tried it on LibreWolf (where it previously worked), Firefox, and Ungoogled Chromium. Same results on all three.
• I tried using my phone's mobile data hotspot in case my home network was the issue. No change.

Just noticed this a week or so ago. When I try to scroll the feed on lemmy.world, my page will halt and go even though I'm scrolling consistently on my trackpad. No other website has this problem to my knowledge.

Info: Framework 13 AMD laptop 32 gigs memory Firefox 136.0.1 64-bit

Any ideas? It's really irritating.

Please bear in mind I'm old, so will need it ELI5

There are a lot of articles posted from sourced I consider dubious so I wonder if there's a way to hide those.
