We fixed the attribution. Now usernames show up as /u/<user>@<server> (rather than earlier /u/<user> and no server). Also the server name can be seen in the right bar. Let me know if this fixes the main issue you had.
Also for a deadline of federation will you be ok if I commit to doing it before we have 100 active users a month? (since our comments are federated out, it is easy to see how many active users we have. I can also report whenever someone asks).
Hello @baggachipz@sh.itjust.works are there some documented rules of federation that I am missing? Please point me.
Hi there, I am creator of clubsall. We absolutely do care about community.
There were many discussion few months ago. There were also private discussions with some admins. Because we are not lemmy based, so our development takes time (plus my developer left, plus we were trying to move to sublinks which itself has federation issues). So federation for us is not a config setting. Also, we are a very niche site with almost no traffic.
Additionally, different admins feel different rules are fair, so it is hard for us to know how to be good community members. I request a common set of rules, preferably based on traffic, so any newbie can get the breathing room to develop and participate. Does that sound fair?
Our challenge has been that many people feel differently to what is fair. So I have been requesting if all admins can agree to a common set of rules so we can comply with it and be upstanding community members. Is that reasonable request?
You have a reasonable argument that it is not possible for everyone to come up with common rules.
The issue is that there are numerous posts instigating and encouraging everyone to defederate. But without a clear definition of what is acceptable. In other words, this approach makes it very hard for anyone from building anything new and participate in federation. So this seems against the goal of “open network” and discourage others from doing anything new.
If that is the goal, then I cannot really win here. If that is not the goal, then I ask not to make such posts and not to encourage everyone to defederate. Anyone who has an issue can reach out to me and I can address their concerns.
Is that reasonable?
