Want to be a misogynist? Go to Hexbear! Just make sure you’re talking to a pup-girl first so you have plausible deniability and can complain that you aren’t being interpreted charitably enough for your blatant misogyny.

  • I might have misunderstood these then - I assumed that removing admin/mod icons next to usernames was purposeful, and that “distinguish” instead allowed admins/mods to post without indicating that, while when they distinguish a post or comment it means “I am a mod/admin and am saying this as one” rather than participating “as a user”, meanwhile “feature”/pin would mean “this is highlighted” without necessarily being a post/comment from a mod/admin (though it could be) and without the “I’m saying this from my position of authority” meaning behind distinguish.





  • Moderator Controls:

    • can “distinguish as moderator” own comments, but not own posts
    • can “feature in community” posts by other users, but not “feature” comments in threads
    • no controls for posts or comments by Admins
      • maybe y’all don’t agree as admins, but I would expect all the same controls as for other users - feature/unfeature posts (and comments, ideally), lock/remove/warn, ban/unban/appoint or remove mod, view votes, edit as mod (given its limited options)

    Perhaps with exceptions if an admin has used a “distinguish” feature themselves?

    I can certainly see arguments for why mods shouldn’t be able to do some of these things - some suggest a level of disagreement that perhaps means the comm should find a new home (ban/remove/warn in particular) but the others don’t feel like they rise to the same level of disagreement, and I’d still argue that, for example, failing to post a frog (or at least a toad) should be moderatable activity.





  • Sorry, I kinda split the context for my latest test across the two comments, but it’s not about import of a 0.19 export:

    1. Export from Voyager
    2. Modify display name and bio in the export
    3. Import in Voyager

    This works, unless the display name is longer than 50 characters, in which case neither field is updated but the import still reports success. I haven’t tried manually modifying any other settings to see if the behavior is different.

    I’d expect, either:

    • Because the import fails, it reports failure
    • Import partially succeeds, display name is truncated, ideally status message reflects partial success
    • Import partially succeeds, display name is unchanged, ideally status message reflects partial success

    Thanks for the link confirming my display name will be “handled properly” catgirl-sob
