Mbin contributor and maintainer
Any reason MATE over Xcfe? Just curious if the performance is close or MATE is better at things, not trying to question your decisions. I have a >9 year old PC at this point and installed Cinnamon on it but was finding it a bit laggy. I tried out the other editions but am sticking with LMDE for now, but sort of feel like I don’t really need nice animations, I just need more CPU for faster compile times, haha

We’re also trying to investigate and solve the issues he’s been running into
It’s one of my big projects, in progress in this PR. I’m really happy with where I got it to recently. I’m not sure if it’ll make it into 1.6.0, but it’s what I’m currently working on.
In the end it’s mostly an agreement on how moderation actions should and are allowed to propagate for activity pub groups, which you can learn more about here https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/1b12/fep-1b12.md#group-moderation
The tl;dr is there’s a set way of saying these specific users are allowed to send actions such as delete on these specific posts, and software that implements groups (communities, to lemmy) ideally implement it in the same way. Of course, someone could always make a software that denies all remote moderation actions for instance, so it’s always up to those implementing the AP spec.
Lemmy has a large userbase, so generally probably gets to decide a lot of these things, such as how moderators are listed when getting information on communities, and other software will have to choose to follow along to be able to work with the large userbase or raise concerns/give feedback if needed
Visa systems were down one day for me when I needed gas, and I decided then to always have at least two different types just in case (it also helps with other issues as I tend of get chip malfunction errors and stuff)
The defederation is one-way; lemmy.world isn’t defederating beehaw.org. lemmy.world users can still see the community, and even still post to it (I assume, not sure if lemmy.world took changes to stop that but, as you can see it even has posts from local lemmy.world users as of 2 months ago, but the last content from anyone outside the instance is 7 months old). However, they will never make it to beehaw.org and thus won’t be federated anywhere else (only users on lemmy.world would ever see it).
They could, yes. Afaik no extra work was needed on lemmy’s side once Mbin changed to report moderators in the same manner (aside from some kind of activity which triggered a refresh of the data)
However, looking at peertube, it looks like they already are using the attributedTo field for the group with a person, which is different from the FEP. For the channel you link in the OP specifically:
"attributedTo": [
{
"type": "Person",
"id": "https://tilvids.com/accounts/thelinuxexperiment"
}
]
It’s possible PeerTube could change to make a /moderators endpoint and respond with that as the FEP suggests, or Lemmy and other software to change to accept this array of actor types instead. I’m not sure who decides these things or if there is an evangelist for FEPs, It’s possible this was already discussed on the peertube github as well, I didn’t look through all the past issues as there are quite a lot
What gets to me is the “Thanks in advance”. I might be alone in this, I asked a co-worker and she said it just seemed like normal dialogue, but I interpret that as “You don’t have a say in the matter, you will do this, your consent is not needed”. Granted, the people who say this to me are my boss or director, so they’re right, I don’t have a choice. But if I wanted to be reminded of reality, I wouldn’t play so many video games.
An ActivityPub group actor defining its moderators is a specific implementation of the AP protocol. You can find the spec details lemmy uses here. An Mbin contributor recently implemented this to line up with Lemmy, but whether other fediverse software do or will is up to them, as it’s more of a community proposal than an official implementation of the spec. So when you see no moderators from other software, they likely just do not implement the linked FEP
Here’s a comment in a lemmy issue describing mastodon images not appearing in lemmy from last year. Since the issue was closed three days after 0.19.3 released I had expected it to work in the next version 0.19.4, but it appears that was not the case.
Edit: While I’m here, I noticed piefed also doesn’t support it, so was considering opening an issue to support attachments, but I imagine there wouldn’t be much desire to do so until mastodon integration is more of a real thing? though I think other software does it, like Plemora/Akkoma/Iceshrimp, I didn’t check but did see the code for it being discussed for plemora at least
