Is there a bot for polls?
Nah. I know my stuff. This is for sure the Revolution.
Canada here. Basically, everything I learned is from parodies. American history is not a big deal in K-12 curriculum. If i had to write a 2 paragraph essay to save my life:
It was a period in history where guns were loaded one ball at a time by stuffing it down the barrel with a stick. Wealthy white people who profited off slavery all lived in the southern states for some reason. This group started to hear that other people in the rest of the (northern) states were starting to talk about making slavery illegal. To protect their interests they formed a separate government, formed an army and attempted to overtake and rule all of the states.
Their army wore red, and the north's defending army wore blue. They shot at each other with cannons for a few years and many people died, mostly from shitty health-care and infections rather than acute death. The north won and now lots of people who were never in the war, pretend to have the war again to remind them to never have a civil war.
I'd say the impact was that slavery was abolished, but it was abolished in many other countries without a civil war so I guess the impact was a lot of parody material for pop culture.
And that is all I know about Paul Revere and the American Revolution.
Commendable that you want to help, but the software needs to handle dead installations as there is no possible way to enforce people to decommission. :) Might be worth dropping just to help the use case of how this gets handled. I feel like you did everything you could.
For whatever reason, I couldn’t get deletion to work on sh.it.works either. Not sure if technical problem or by design.
Isn’t it only if you have something configured in display name?
We should charge for API use now. :)
What were the three questions?
We have to accept there are different levels of moderation. Lemmy allows for quite a few and there are complex interplays between them. Communities are their members, not their moderators.
That doesn't make any sense, other than beehaw can moderate. Anyone can read, post, upvote or subscribe. All fediverse users.
EVERYTHING by default. Also working on "discover only" for searching without the subscribe-to-everything. That said: It's far less than 3GB per day for EVERYTHING I can see, plus: you don't HAVE to keep it forever. Were you doing something that got other than text?
