Well, at least without having to use usernames, etc.
I already know that I am being tracked by the government, etc.
Key Differences Between 4chan/8chan and a Lemmy Community
4chan/8chan (now 8kun):
- Type: Imageboard websites where users create and moderate their own boards.
- Structure: Each board is independently run by a board owner with minimal site-wide moderation.
- Content: Known for a wide range of content, including controversial and often unmoderated discussions. These sites have been linked to hate speech, conspiracy theories (like QAnon), and have faced criticism for hosting illegal or harmful material.
- Anonymity: Users typically post anonymously; there is little to no user account structure.
- Moderation: Very limited, mostly left to individual board owners, which has led to significant issues with illegal and harmful content.
Lemmy Community:
- Type: Part of a "federated" social platform inspired by Reddit, where users create topic-based communities (similar to subreddits).
- Structure: Each community is moderated by appointed users, and rules are typically clearer and more strictly enforced than on imageboards.
- Content: Focused on discussion, link sharing, and community engagement, with a strong emphasis on moderation and decentralized control.
- Anonymity: Users have accounts and can build reputations, though they can still use pseudonyms.
- Moderation: Community-driven moderation with platform-level tools to prevent abuse and illegal content.
In short: 4chan/8chan are anonymous, minimally moderated imageboards with a history of controversial content, while Lemmy communities are user-moderated, account-based discussion forums with stronger moderation and decentralized control.
Has anyone thought about building a federated/imageboard-style alternative—something like a federated 4chan/8chan?
Has anyone ever considered a federated alternative to lyric platforms like Genius or Musixmatch?
Should Lemmy consider potentially adding a QR code feature for user profiles, similar to what Mastodon has introduced?
Alright.
I just tagged you two in the other community.
All you have to do is respond to it, and then I will be able to mod you.
Also, one of us should probably make a post about the merge and whatnot in this community, that way we let ProgressiveChristian users know.
Does anyone else think Lemmy could benefit from a community-specific search feature?
I just checked Evil Wafrn, and now I'm confused.
What is the difference between Wafrn, and "Evil Wafrn"?
is it just a different Wafrn instance?
Is it a completely different and separate Fediverse platform?
I attempted to log into "Evil Wafrn" using my regular Wafrn login and that failed.
Thank you very much.
Looking for a Fediverse Alternative to Tumblr: Loforo vs Wafrn vs Goblin vs Others?
Out of curiosity, why DO people dislike bots here?
Not that I am such a major Bot user, but I feel like they could defeated be helpful, as well as add some variety.
Is there any way of potentially fixing the issue?
Yeah sorry about that, I am having issues with Lemmy.
I personally didn't remove you.
I had you modded, and then when I checked later on, you had somehow been removed as mod.
You should be remodded now
Looking for Potential Mods
Thank you very much.
You are now Modded.
If we did, I never noticed anything.
Should Lemmy consider implementing a collaborative pixel art feature similar to Reddit's r/place?
Thank you very much.
These are just some random ones that I randomly thought of:
1.) Multi-Window Support: Open multiple communities simultaneously.
2.) Color-Coded Comments: Enable color-coded comments for easier thread scanning
3.) Per Account Settings: Customize settings individually for each account
4.) Experimental Options: Allow users to beta test new features
5.) Premium Option: Potentially add a subscription option for users who wish to subscribe.
6.) Swipe-back Functionality: Add the ability to move between sections without using the back button
7.) Long-Press Previews: Quickly preview images, GIFs, and albums without opening them fully.
8.) Potential Premium Features:
Cloud backup, ad-free browsing, user tagging, text translation, text selection from images, etc.
Are we sure that he's not secretly Michael Jackson?
Perhaps offer it as a setting, that users could potentially turn on/off?
It's just that, IMHO, there's no point in having Profile Images, if you're not allowed to zoom in /out, and see them up close.
