Worf does not look pleased to be on that particular away mission.
I mean, you're right, it kind of is provoking an "immune" response π€·π»ββοΈ. Several UIs already add badges to new accounts since trolls spinning up new accounts to ban-evade is an ongoing problem.
I maintain a Lemmy UI, and I'm now adding a feature to let people hide new accounts; they can specify a minimum age and only accounts older than that will be shown in communities they're not a moderator of.
But they're not real accounts; just abandoned burner accounts. I would hardly call that growth.
I disagree you're helping smaller instances in any way and posit that you're making the fediverse worse with that practice.
You're creating and abandoning accounts on the regular. Those accounts federate out to every instance the home one is linked to and exist in perpetuity. We're talking several thousand instances or more. All filling up with abandoned accounts from the same person.
This post isn't the flex you think it is.
That's....literally the same process trolls use.
Totally agree.

Finally releasing 1.3.0. I didn't quite rip it down to the studs, but it was damn close. Much of the UI has been re-written as well as a lot of the underpinning helper functions. There's a lot of changes, though most are just enhancements and polish to things that already existed in 1.2.9.
Screenshot description: Logged into my Lemmy World account, browsing communities hosted at programming.dev, and the community list is shown. Communities on programming.dev I'm already subscribed to are indicated, and the check buttons allow instant subscription to those (even if LW doesn't yet know about them). Also shown is an instance selector dropdown featuring my home instance as well as instances set by the admin to appear there. At the bottom of that dropdown is a field where I can enter the domain of any Lemmy instance to browse.
The full changelog is a beast, so I'll only post the highlights here:
1.3.0 "Defiant" remains fully compatible with both 0.18.x and 0.19.x. This will be the last version to support 0.18.x. Once development of 1.4.0 begins, the minimum supported API version will be 0.19.3.
0.19 has had basic support (mostly auth) since 0.19.0 was released. In addition, 1.3.0 now offers a few more features that become available when connecting to an 0.19.x instance:
markdown-it and all of its plugins as it was too cumbersome to extend to do some things I wanted to do and replaced it with svelte-plugin-marked. Wrote custom renderers to replicate the functionality of markdown-it-html5-embed and spoilers.[Archive Link] next to them which will automatically search archive.ph for that URL. Please stop commenting "Paywalled" when someone posts an article.This deserves its own section since the search was completely revamped.
Can now view federated instances (allowed, blocked, linked) through Tesseract. Additionally, you can filter by software (Lemmy, Kbin, etc) and keyword as well as hide dead instances.
Each instance also has action buttons to view communities there (Lemmy only), visit the instance, view a Fediseer report for it. Dead instances are also indicated with a "thumbs-down" icon.
Instances are considered "dead" if they haven't been pinged in > 3 days.
In addition to the polish and cleanup, the form to create posts has some new features:
Lots of tweaks and polish, now has quick action buttons that can be used to reverse a previous action or take additional actions. You can also easily turn a temp ban into a permaban without the intermediate step of unbanning first.
There are only two planned features that didn't make the cut:
Since this is the last 0.18.x release, and I'm having to support both cursor and offset-based pagination, I've decided to push the custom feed rewrite to 1.4.0 which is dropping 0.18.x support. That will make implementation easier and cleaner than having to support both methods.
Same as with the custom feeds, I want to do this cleanly. Since 0.18.5's TOTP setup is bonkers and can easily lead to accounts being locked out, I've decided to skip adding this until 0.19.x is the minimum-supported version. Tesseract supports logging in if your account has 2FA enabled, but you can't manage 2FA settings yet. I may add that in a 1.3.x release and just limit it to 0.19.x instances like I'm doing with the other 0.19 features as long as I can do it cleanly without impacting support for 0.18.x.
My thanks to @gedaliyah@lemmy.world for pointing out a bug when working reports. Fixes have been pushed out.
ghcr.io/asimons04/tesseract:1.3.0Feel free to play around with the demo instance (it's unlocked and can log into any Lemmy instance), but ideally, you'd host it yourself or ask your instance admins to offer it as an alternate UI.

Second thought: "or into whom?"
So, they're demanding chips that don't exist to support a feature that no one wants?
