Interesting: Activityhub and bluesky integration out the door. Thats a first (I think?)

[–] gabboman@lemmy.world 51 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I know bsky is not everyone's jam. But I promise wafrn will do the best to protect you from stupid shit they do. The main wafrn instance has blocked jd vance as example ;D

Fediverse centric podcast. I've never watched/listened. But I regularly see episodes through the new que on Lemmy. They even host on peer tube.

Is it pronounced like the blood thinner/rat poison (warfarin)?

[–] conc@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Is that how it kills the rats? Thins their blood to death?

Dude that gender list is great.

My ~~god~~ cat with disturbingly human lips, the internet is back.

Seriously, I love it. Correct amount of humor and functionality. I’m on the road but I’ll be signing up for sure.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Well, tumblr died out in 2017 because they said "NO PORN!!!"

And all the blogs died.

It's like Dr Cox said: "If you take all the porn off the internet, there'd only be one website left. www.bringbacktheporn.com and nobody would visit because it doesn't have porn."

So. Does WAFRN have porn? And also.....why are these things ALWAYS named with weird hard to pronounce names? Come see my new website Drufyflezak!

[–] gabboman@app.wafrn.net 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wafrn stands for We Allow Female Representing Nipples

I hope this answers both your questions

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wait.....now you're the second person to say this. I thought the other guy was joking.

Is this legit what it stands for??? Because thats hilarious!

Fantastic idea! I miss Tumblr terribly ever since the Great Porn Ban of 2018, even though I never even reblogged or followed 'adult' blogs. I just wanted to reblog holsum and funny fanart, but fuck giving into puritan corpo censorship.

What's the moderation policy on genocide denial and the like? I hate having to ask this, but having heard too many people deny the Holodomor on here, I feel it necessary to make the inquiry.

For that matter, more generally, are you prepared, in terms of moderation structure, for the massive amount of legitimately disturbing material that's going to pass through the site and will need to be removed if the site grows beyond a few hundred users? I would hate to join and then see this crash because of (completely understandable) moderator/admin burnout at the depravity and speed of mankind's worst elements.

two back-to-back W.A.F.R.N. posts by the same user that read "rent lowering nsfw boosts" and "gotta keed the tech bros at bay"

I see the tumblr culture is already present, congrats! Although I never personally used tumblr, my understanding is that more than features or functionality it was very much the culture that its users cultivated that made that site special.

Exciting! I've made an effort to let go of Insta for both privacy and hatred of Zuck's policies, which left me stuck on Tumblr to look at any fanart/fandom content. Hopefully this could replace people's need for Tumblr in a few years, especially since they also do a shit job of caring about their users.

Edit: Knowing the context of the name is hilarious, wish I was there for the Tumblr exodus. I will be sure to spread to other platforms about this wonderful service.

Why do these kind of things always have random-name-generator names? Just name it something sane.

[–] irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 week ago

Its name stands for "We Allow Female Representing Nipples", based on the tumblr policy of banning Female Representing Nipples.

One of the biggest issues with fediverse platforms is poor presentation. This is another good example of that.
