  • true, my comment was primarily from the perspective of the recipient of tracking links

  • Lemmy Mods: How do you keep track of the reports you receive?

    Jump

  • for our admin team, we're using a bot to message a matrix room when content is reported and reacting to the message when it's been handled.

    this could be done pretty much the same way on mod level, though this is certainly not easily accessible to everyone due to the hosting involved.

    and all of this is only relevant if you even receive reports about content in the first place. if you moderate a community on another instance, tough luck unfortunately, as they currently do not federate.

  • I haven't checked how reddit does this but just from the example it seems like there is no anti tracking from the use of urlcheck that you're describing.

    reddit appears to generate tracking link with a specific numeric identifier in their database, so instead of attaching a bunch of removable url parameters they instead do a lookup in their database and then redirect to the original destination.

    this also means your app checking the redirect will need to fetch the url to determine the destination, which means their tracking still works just fine.

    edit: a word

  • Crash reporting

    Jump

  • based on https://help.apple.com/xcode/mac/current/#/deve2819c518 it seems like users may need to explicitly enable sharing crash data with app developers.

    I don't know what the default for this is.

    https://help.apple.com/xcode/mac/current/#/dev9a80ab71d seems to imply that you need to distribute your app via app store or testflight to be able to receive crash reports.the majority of apps installed on my mac are not installed via app store, though many of them have app store variants.i don't know if the distribution channel matters or just having the app in app store is enough.this article however also explicitly states this, so it appears that you do indeed by default not send this data to app developers:

    users who download your app from the App Store will need to agree to share crash and usage data with developers.

  • Crash reporting

    Jump

  • I'm pretty sure this only goes to Apple, not to the actual developer.

    I believe I've even seen devs specifically ask for copies of the reports from the crash reporter, as they wouldn't receive them otherwise.

    this doesn't change the rest of your statement though, just afaik the recipient is different.

  • How it started, how it's going

    Jump

  • do people commonly have three feet where you live?

  • Why does most of the spam I see come from kbin accounts?

    Jump

  • that's not entirely accurate.

    the main problem for non-kbin users, as @ono@lemmy.ca is using lemmy, is that kbin moderation actions, such as a moderator or admin removing spam will not federate to lemmy, as this is not implemented yet.for a lemmy user, it appears that kbin doesn't have any moderation at all, while spam is being removed for kbin(.social) users at least.

    for this reason, several lemmy instances have already either defederated from kbin or removed kbin communities from their instance.

  • it is generally possible to find the post on another instance through the search, at least through the default web interface. there is certainly a lot of room for improvement though.

  • I don't see "AI" being a relevant factor here, it should be treated the same as if it was drawn, photoshopped or otherwise.

    Although I don't know the full intention of the rule as it was originally created, I assume the intention to be avoiding political debate here. One of the easiest ways to accomplish this is by banning political figures, no questions asked, but that also prohibits a bunch of content that is unlikely to result in political debate.

    At the same time, we have

    Exceptions may be made at the discretion of the mods

    so I would consider this an exception on that ground.

  • D or d come on

    Jump

  • if you're renaming from File.js to file.ts, which is also changing suffixes instead of just capitalization, then that couldn't be explained by case sensitivity, unless it was a typo and you meant File.js to file.js

  • D or d come on

    Jump

  • I've been using case insensitive fs on macOS for years and the only software having issues with this is onedrive.

    can't say i'm surprised.

  • it is indeed somewhat attributed, but it still very much looks like scraped content.

    a very strong indicator is the inclusion of

    at the end, which on cointelegraph's page is separate from the content and provides a sign-up form.

  • What is this icon for?

    Jump

  • in my experience it becomes hidden even from admins, at least on the instance it was removed on. i've seen this both on a remote user with remote content and also on a local user with remote content from the admin perspective and in neither case i still see any content on the user's profile.

  • reddthat.com.you should also see that when you click my name, if it doesn't already show it on my name.

    to be fair, iirc it was only a total of 3 comment threads at the time, where two were started by lemmy.world users and one by a hexbear.net user. as those instances are on your instances block list, that would enough to hide the entire comment threads I believe.
