Lemmy's lack of features is why Lemmys community is how it is and that suits the Lemmy devs and their political goals perfectly.

ideologically posed to keep the thing open, for the people, by the people

What. Check out the modlog, they ban more people than anyone.

It's up to the mods and admins what they do with PieFed's functions. Anything can be misused, even simple stuff. Like for example lemmy.ml has a description "a community for Foss and privacy enthusiasts" set by the admins and then ridicules and bans anyone who pushes back against the .ml political line on China. Lemmy.ml is not about foss and privacy.

The software feature of having a instance description is innocuous but it's being used for deception.

Abelism or not it took seconds to change so I don't mind.

Attitude has turned out to be a lot less useful than I hoped...

I removed the word 'stupid' from the code 3 months ago, the function is now called 'reply_is_low_effort'.

The haters don't bother keeping their propaganda up to date.

whether it affects them immediately, or is just something they may be concerned about in the future.

There is a 99% chance it won't effect them because 99% of people don't vote more than the quota. I was very careful about that.

The vote quota can be set to whatever the instance admin desires. Just like any other terms of service, it's up to the admin what they give away for free and under what conditions.

afaik only piefed.zip and multiverse.soulism.net have chosen to increase it, though.
