Hi @suriyan

A lot of your messages appear to be LLM written. Are you an automated bot?

Please familiarise yourself with the p.d automation guidelines:

https://legal.programming.dev/docs/automation-guidelines/

Please reach out to us as soon as possible, or we will be forced to assume you are a bot.

Fortunately, most of the visible stuff has been caught and purged quickly, so you may have just missed it.

The DM abuse is basically invisible except to the targets.

We don’t want to do this kind of thing, we are being forced to, because bad actors keep using our server to send harassment.

If you know a better way to handle that, we are all ears

You created this post in the general programming community. Discussions comparing JADEx to other languages are on-topic.

Yeah, I know. I am working on the bot in my spare time though, so right now it’s pretty rough around the edges.

The bot auto-removes all image posts from new accounts. We have an issue with new accounts using images to send abuse.

It sucks, and I dont like that we have done this, but there is just 1 asshole who is ruining it for everyone.

We had a bunch of new accounts created that immediately hurled abuse at another user. It got us briefly defederated from a few instances. We are using the profanity filter to raise those kinds of post to our attention so we can deal with them rapidly.

Once we are sure the new account is behaving itself, the filter is turned off. We don’t care if you swear, as long as it’s in line with the code of conduct.

We do, the library I am using isn’t the best. If you know of a good rust lib for profanity checking, feel free to share.

But we are kinda okay with it being a bit over-eager. It only applies to new accounts, and I am actively reverting the messages if its an error. Its scaling okay for now.

Just wasnt fast enough in this case.

pASSword - Profanity filter caught you. Sorry.

They didn’t, our auto-mod did. We have an automod that detects profanity.

I have disabled it for you now.

Perhaps upload to YT or similar, and link here?

Limewire, what a blast from the past.

Converted to mp4 and it works, but I wonder if the problem is file size? 11mb for the gif feels like it might be too big? Maybe try with a 9mb file, in case the limit is 10.

I converted it to mp4, and it shrunk to 1.9mb and uploaded, so I’m not sure what the exact problem is.

Seems unlikely, can you share the file some other way (dropbox or whatever) to me to try? It could also be instance specific?

Not sure why, but can you convert to MP4 before uploading? MP4 seems to work fine.

The admin team are aware, and are planning on upgrading to the latest lemmy version in the coming days.
