The transphobia stops now

Reply in thread

It was the only (as far as I know) general shitposting community on reddit that wasn't casually racist/homophobic/transphobic, because of this a lot of LGBTQ+ people flocked to it for their memes.

WE NEED MODERATORS

Well I'm glad this is happening I was just trying to reply to your previous post but it turned out it was removed in the process of me writing the comment. The short of it was that a community of almost 10k needs more than one mod, because while there are three mod accounts two are you and the third is a dead account. Please do your absolute best when deciding who to give moderation control over 196 as I don't doubt there will almost certainly be bad actors who try to get mod so they can sabotage this place, it sure wouldn't be the first time this community has been targeted.

POLL RESULTS: NSFW Content is FULLY PERMITTED, but must be tagged and blurred.

I'm cool with it as long as it's marked, I just think we need to establish a line on what counts as NSFW or not since some things toe the line. Like are we hardline marking anything even remotely sexual, or just things that are clearly NSFW. Obviously the former would be easier to moderate because of the subjective nature of things, so I wouldn't be opposed to that.

Also do mods not have the ability to edit a post so they are marked as NSFW if it's not already marked?

At that point just pirate it unless you're trying to play a game online. Also if you were unaware g2a uses stolen credit cards among other morally dubious methods to get their game keys. You probably shouldn't be supporting that regardless of your reasoning.

So what you need to know is yes we're chill. Also most of us migrated from reddit and r/196 was a leftist shitposting sub. You can get the rest of the vibe by reading the rules sticky which mostly just boils down to don't be a douche or a bigot. If you're talking about Blahaj as a whole pretty chill as far as I can tell, just a bunch of LGBTQ people and anyone else who wants to be here with us.

Blåhaj Lemmy hacked

I just had issues logging in, so I'm gonna make a comment in case anyone else is having issues.

TL;DR: Clear your cookies.

I couldn't log in from the main page, I would type everything correctly and it would give me a "logged in" popup in the corner, but I wouldn't actually be logged in. For some reason though I ended up being able to log in from my profile page though, but I wouldn't stay logged in unless I opened up my profile page and navigated from there. I was also able to log in from the main page while in a private window though, (incognito for chrome users) so I figured clearing my cookies would fix the issue. That's what I ended up doing, and I was able to log in from the main page and this time I stayed logged in. Sorry for the ramble, but I just wanted to put down everything that happened since it's clearly a bug with the site, and if someone were to fix this they're gonna want as much details as can be provided.

The government does not rule

Reply in thread

Ah yes, the old "I don't wanna pay taxes for things I don't use" argument, I guess we should just stop funding medicare/medicade because not everyone uses it, right? While we're at it we should also get rid of all government assistance programs, since only a small portion of the population uses them, that sounds like a great idea. /s
