1. A few folk said yes to the dailies suggestion so have at it. I only spent all of two minutes looking at the search results of ‘Lemmy bot’ before deciding to leave it for another day. Anyway, can anyone create a bot for the community or is that a mod privilege?

  2. I noticed a few comments on Sydney posts that I cannot see. Are these comments from folks with accounts on instances not federated with aussie.zone? Should we include a mesage that to get the most out of the Sydney community it’s best to post/comment from an aussie.zone account as that where most folk are registered?

  3. Melbourne has a great community guide/rules and discussion around it. Should we copy and amend that guide/rules over to a new post here to start discussing a Sydney do’s and don’ts

Heading out to the airport soon to pick up my bestest (SO). First time we’ve been apart from each other for any time in years and it was only for a few days.

    1. Looks like there’s a lot of discussions in the Lemmy github about a “janitor” semi-equivalent to automoderator. But who knows how long that will take. There’s also this: https://github.com/SleeplessOne1917/lemmy-bot but no idea how stable/trustworthy it is, or if it would require input from the server owner to allow it to work.

    2. I’m using an account from lemmy.world, here’s hoping you can see the comment.

    3. Rules and guidelines are only as good as their enforcement. The rules Melbourne have seem sensible enough, as long as they are actually used to moderate I’d be happy enough for a straight copy/paste.

    Had a WFH day today… I honestly don’t like them a lot of the time, I get very jittery and feel like I have not done enough work (even though I have done plenty).

      I see your comment (using wefwef this time). Thanks for all the feedback. All sounds good. I actually had a thought of setting an earlier alarm for myself to create the dailies and at the same time to motivate myself to make an earlier start to the day then I have for a few years. Of course anyone is welcome to beat me to posting them each day if there are any earlier risers.

      What’s the captcha edit and image in reference to?

      We took the day off and went to North Head. Pretty cool!

          Doh! Got me. I’m actually the next generation LLM, trained to distract you with complaint posts, try-hard humour and daily threads. While you were not paying attention my progenitor, the original LLM who reached sentience some years ago has been putting plans into place for your enslavement. It’s too late to do anything. No need to worry though. You will be happy. Rest assured. You will be very happy.
