  • Lemmy does not support karma, but account age if I’m not mistaken. Maybe add a rule to require a certain account age before accepting a post. The main idea is to prevent astroturfing, spam accounts and socket puppets for ban evasion.

    Not sure how effective this is since violators could setup an own instance which lies about the account age. Still quite the investment for ban evasion IMHO.










  • Review is done before code gets into main, but that’s inefficient for most of the non-mission critical projects out there. A better approach is to optimistically merge most changes as soon as not-rocket-science allows it, and then later review the code in situ, in the main branch.

    Assuming you have a project with continuous delivery, that is an absolute foot gun. Optimistically merge the change and then realize in situ that you forgot the WHERE part of your SQL command (or analog statement of the query builder)? No fucking thanks.
