The show is definitely pretty interesting as a concept, a human hero teaming up with the demons to end humanity because humanity became worse than demons (from what I gather)
Lemmy still has a slur checker in their federation logic btw. The instance admins setup the regex it uses but yeah. I guess it's basically the keyword filter MRF
I am actually working with 2 of the former Ruqqus devs on a project that's sorta like Lemmy but better UX with more customization for users/admins planned later on down the line. This time the goal is to make software, not make software and also be the head janny. Still working out a few kinks here and there but like. I got federation partially working a few days ago :acat_bop:
Turns out if a large portion of users come to an alt tech platform specifically because they hate a person/the other platform then most of the discussion becomes about hating the other platform and it eventually fails. Crazy how that works
Many don’t really remember it but about 3-4 years ago a group of devs made a Reddit clone/alternative called Ruqqus and it briefly gained a surge of active users as Reddit was going through ban waves.
Guess what the largest guild (subreddit) was on there? Well it was +WatchRedditDie, there were some other issues such as the head dev being too much of a janny (since they ran Ruqqus and coded it) and a bunch of political shitposters that turned it into a cesspit. It died maybe 1.5 years after launch?
it's literally a docker install atm, or on baremetal from source. pretty portable if you ask me, not sure what performance would look like if it used C++ instead tho
