I think you’re looking for [email protected]

I’ve never thought to ask before, but is “nightstand” just American for “bedside table”?

Typing it starting with an @ doesn’t resolve for me but [email protected] does

If you need to “cheat” (e.g. fudging a roll because you made your monster way too powerful) then never tell the players, it will only ruin their sense of immersion.

Try to do voices, players love them even if they’re shit and it helps distinguish the NPCs. The voices don’t have to be remotely good and you don’t need to be good at accents, just try things like “gruff voice” for the grizzled mercenary or “weirdly enthusiastic” for the mad old wizard.

Probably a technical consideration (like what if they have an edit timestamp which would allow a dedicated person to find all the comments unlinked at the exact same time), a personal consideration (what if you actually want that information purged as thoroughly as possible), and a legal consideration (sounds like it violates the GDPR)

Data privacy (the “right to be forgotten”) I’d say is the main reason. Say you realise that you’ve built up a little to much linkable information about yourself over the years and don’t want it readily available for whoever might want to make use of it.

Interesting idea, but how do you decide on what the universally-agreed on reactions are? Have too many and they may as well just be comments!

I’ve tried KDE Plasma Mobile on an old Surface Pro and it seemed to work better than Gnome

I remember that being a problem back on Reddit (though I always found people upvoting low-effort stuff that wasn’t community/sub-appropriate to be more of a problem). It’s kind of a site-wide UX issue though really, if a new casual user is just presented with a list of posts then they might genuinely be unaware of (or perhaps just uninterested in) where they came from and what their votes mean.

Oh. If the only thing stopping the votes being public is a label saying pretty please don’t make this public then it does seem very open to abuse.

Some people might think it’s not interesting because it’s not appropriate content for that community, and that by downvoting they are improving the quality for everyone. I don’t think every instance/community has a unified consensus on how exactly to use voting, and some people are always going to do their own thing regardless.

If you’d only ever interacted with Lemmy and not read up on how ActivityPub works then that’s a reasonable assumption, it’s not like anything (that I’ve noticed!) actually tells you that your votes are public, and they don’t look to be public in the places you’re likely to see!

I think the issue is that many Lemmy users will think more carefully about what they comment than what they up/downvote, as a comment appears connected to your username but a vote doesn’t. You might decide against commenting on something you disagree with because you don’t want to get in a fight, instead just downvoting it, but if people then know if was you who downvoted can still pick the fight.

Basically the issue is you’re revealing a lot more information than you might initially have realised if you’d have known votes were public all along. Maybe a disgruntled person uses that to dox you, or maybe a corpo feeds all that information into their fancy computer system to work out who you might be, who knows.

Isn’t this basically the plot of the Lego Batman movie?
