We have been under troll attack for a while now. For this reason, I am giving up on the open registration policy for a while.

I will also add a rule for extremist users. Even though I care about freedom, I don鈥檛 like moderation duties very much :) These users must find a new instance that matches their identity.

We鈥檙e also looking for an admin who can volunteer to moderate. They should be someone who has spent a few months in our instance, has a clean moderation history, and is active. In short, they must be someone we can trust. @QuazarOmega@lemy.lol and I are busy these days :)

    I just signed up, took like 30 minutes to be approved (daytime in Euro region). Barely an inconvenience.

      Not very much but we can鈥檛 resolve reports fast. Sometimes it takes 10 hours. We鈥檙e in same time zone.

    I think that in the future there should be a social media where you pay few cents for every post, and mods collect the fees for their work

      TBH I don鈥檛 like money involvement in social media. Elon鈥檚 Twitter proves that, I believe. Also I hate crypto scams so much :)

        Well, you probably also don鈥檛 like working for free. Involving money and attaching price to every post is at least some solution to the problem.

        Besides this could be done without crypto - any type money should be equally suitable (at least in theory)

          IDK. On Reddit, there are people trying to farm karma, which is some internet points that has no real value.

          If we put real money in it, it would be devastating. It should be really balanced to be effective. It鈥檚 really dangerous tool I think.

          Also I鈥檓 spending about $40 monthly from my pocket for this instance, so I don鈥檛 care money earnings at all :)

            I mean users should pay. Rewarding users with money would be suicidal for any social media.

              So many questions come to my mind. I guess we won鈥檛 know whether it will work or not unless such an example is implemented :) Maybe I鈥檓 so used to free social media, the opposite seems illogical 馃

                I mean, for many, even small fee would be a showstopper. This is the biggest issue here - people shitpost a lot for better or worse, because it鈥檚 free.

                Paid model would probably not work for meme boards, but it might work for large technical communities
