  • Yes no big deal having the option to autoblock images, a literal nothing burger. Having to change the format of posts and comments to pander to a small minority of users that think they should have a say about other users is an issue. The format police are not popular and most users would use more images just to spite them.

    If or when that feature rolls out Lemmy wide, it better be an option and not a locked setting.









  • Naw, this has been wafted around as a potential new feature allowing users to autoblock images for a while now. The funny part is that even if it does come to be, who cares? If people don’t want pictures, whatever, it is not going to stop pictures being used and there is not really much concern if someone breaks their own use of lemmy (hell it is looking like people are going to dunk on those users).

Kids who sleep with me without loving me, that is, without attempting to eat up my energy and my time, what a sinecure! Yes, back to Asia as soon as possible!” In her 2014 book about pedophilia from the 19th to the 21st century, Anne-Claude Ambroise-Rendu pointed out that remarks like these did not seem to bother anyone.
