OP and me are venting, we are well aware that the issues can be mitigated to some extent. Also, this post is literally about someone putting hateful messages in their username and profile picture, hiding your identity won't exactly help then :(

Constant harassment? ... a single infraction is enough to remove internet strangers forever.

I think maybe you don't quite understand, doesn't matter how many we block there is always one more phobe just around the corner, and being attacked by these people can be quite taxing emotionally in the long run.

I reported their account and a couple of other ones, hopefully steam will do something eventually.

Minish Cap is just absolutely amazing. The world is small, but very well made and fun to explore. It has aged very well (I imagine most GBA games have?) so I would recommend everyone to give it a go if they like that sort of game!

I've never tried any Castlevania games, maybe it's time.

Pretty sure each of the companies selling smart home systems like this want to become the dominant go to system, so focusing on earning profits doesn't make much sense. You want to lure customers into your ecosystem and for your solution to become so dominant you become a monopoly, or at least so you don't fall behind and let someone else become ubiquitous. I view it as amazon building infrastructure and supporting future endeavors.

I haven't heard about piefed before, but I'll be keeping an eye on this one as well. Thanks!

Dunno? More moderation tools in general. Lemmy mods regularly complain about a lack of tools, but I've never moderated anything so I wouldn't know. The project page probably describes what additional tools it has which is one of the things I'm interested in reading about.

Perhaps some moderators can chime in with what kinda stuff they miss or want?

 

Hi! I remember there beings talks about beehaw planning to eventually move to a lemmy alternative with proper moderation tools, and was interested in following the development of this alternative, but I've forgotten the name of the project and can't find the specific posts about the subject. Anyone remember what I'm talking about?
