This has become a chronic issue with Lemmy and its starting to feel like it’s a waste of time to answer questions.

    I mean; the mechanics ensure that it kinda is. Are these good mechanics?

    This is a major ‘upside’ to centrally controlled spaces, they are tricky to exploit in several ways. I don’t think that maintaining a open community with both:

    • Easy exploits;
    • Social norms against using them;

    is effective.

    Either the exploitation is a feature that we accept, or we should rework the feature. Behavior is downstream of systems. How should we change the delete-post system?
