Transgender Day of Visibility has always been recognized on March 31st. It has been around since 2009. Easter doesn't always fall on March 31st.

    She specifically asked if she could vote, they told her yes, then she still cast a provisional ballot just in case, then she was sent to prison for voting illegally.

    I saw a free preview screening of Mission to Mars right before it came out. That horrible movie ended and the theater was dead silent, then someone yelled out, "I didn't have to pay to see that pile of crap". Everyone applauded.

    There's two main Minecraft Communities?
  • elrac elrac 1y ago 100%

    I was aware of the one on Lemmy when I created this one. I still created it for the reasons HawkXero said. The longer I'm on kbin and lemmy the more I think it would be nice if communities could themselves federate.

    What is your favourite Minecraft Update?
  • elrac elrac 1y ago 100%

    I wasn't brought in by any of the changes in 1.19, but I love the changes to ore drops in 1.17 and the new terrain generation of 1.18. So I've been sticking with 1.18 until the mods I use work in 1.20.

  • How should we deal with similarly named communities?
  • elrac elrac 1y ago 100%

    I think there are a couple of reasons to not allow mods on one instance to moderate posts on another instance.

    One example I can think of, if I wanted to grief a community I might go to another instance that doesn't have that community, create it, making myself a mod in the process. Then I would request federation with the community I want to grief. Then I'd mod away all their posts, or do anything else I wanted. With some luck and okay timing I bet a person could do a lot of damage before federation was turned off. People in IRC chat rooms used to use a similar technique to steal OP from others in rooms. Making modding of federated content only effect the local instance would contain any of that damage. As a feature creep sort of feature, perhaps modding done on an instance could send a suggested mod response to the originating instance, and they could do what they wanted with the information.

    Also, having it set up like I originally suggested could allow for other non standard federation arrangements. Like one instance that allows nsfw content in a community to be federated with one that auto blocks anything marked nsfw. Maybe even one way federation, where an instance shows posts from another in a community, but it isn't reciprocated. I don't think that would be usually the best idea, but it might work.

  • How should we deal with similarly named communities?
  • elrac elrac 1y ago 100%

    It would be neat if communities from different instances could federate with each other like the instances themselves do.

    In my mind it would work like this:
    If two communities have the same topic, and have compatible rules, then they could federate with each other. This would show the posts from both in a combined view in whichever instance you were logged in on.

    For moderators there would be two types of posts.
    Posts originating on their instance they would have full mod control over, and any actions taken on the posts would change the post for all other communities they are federated with.
    Posts originating from federated communities I think mods should be able to hide in the local communities as well as a subset of other mod abilities, like sticky. However these would only affect the local copy, not the original or the other federated communities.

    As far as I know neither Kbin nor Lemmy has anything like that, but I think it would be a great feature if either could make something like that work.

    Future Moderators
  • elrac elrac 1y ago 100%

    So far this is far from popping off. That being said I agree with some of your comments.

    1. So far I added one person who asked to be a moderator who was active in r/Minecraft. I vetted the person and they seemed to be okay, however he also hasn't been on much since then, so I don't even know if he ended up on kbin, or somewhere else. Personally I was not even subbed to r/minecraft, mostly due to the same issues you alluded to. My only qualifications for being admin of this magazine is that I made it before anyone else.
    2. It's not a given that anyone from Reddit will be able to come in here and just be made a mod. They are separate things. If this magazine is popular enough that more mods are needed I'll hopefully be able to recruit from people posting to it.
    3. Thank you for the offer. I'll keep it in mine if moderating gets out of hand. Generally I'll be looking to people who actually post or comment, on m/minecraft or on kbin in general for moderators. People are still moving around a lot after the troubles with Reddit and we need to see where people land.

    MC Championship Pride 23
    https://mcchampionship.com/pages/event/

    MCC Pride 23 is today. Of you haven't seen an MCC before, it's 40 streamers in 10 teams of 2. They play mini games for points, and the top two teams play a game called Dodgebolt to determine the winner. Each player streams independently so watchers get a unique perspective on the tournament. This specific event is to celebrate pride month, so it is a little different from the standard MCC events. This event will be raising money for the Trevor Project.
