Drama in the Fediverse

defederate? don't defederate? that is the question.
is an instance owned by the Wrong Type of People(tm)?
are the admins insane, or are the users dangerous?
what does the modlog say?

Rules:

  1. Follow lemmy.world's rules

  2. No bigotry. That includes racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, etc.

  3. Keep the drama focused on Lemmy and/or the fediverse only. If it's Kbin or Mastodon drama, it must be a quality effortpost.

  4. Don't piss on the popcorn. Inciting brigades is an automatic ban.

  5. We reserve the right to enforce the rules however we like.

Big Drama Llamas...

User @th3raid0r@tucson.social posted a call to pressure the devs to return CAPTCHA support before v.0.18 arrives on the community !technology@beehaw.org.

Mixed response from users and beehaw admins.

Lemmy issue #2922 is where it was removed 2 weeks ago due to its effectiveness being limited, Lemmy issue #3200 is the issue where it is suggested to have it return. Repo maintainers are somewhat perceptive to reverting it but would be more willing to accept a full implementation of graphical CAPTCHA over the previous version.
