You can report yourself on Mastodon
  • I've actually seen some forum software that did not hide the report button in the UI. :-) You didn't even have to post to the API. You could just fill out the report form and report yourself.

    One use case for it is to remove a post that you are not allowed to remove yourself. Some forums don't let you edit or delete your own posts after 15 minutes, so you don't change what you originally said.

  • 53 users would rather disagree
  • It would be interesting to see how people would behave if you had both a "Disagree" and a "Low Quality" button. Would it make any difference, or would people who dislike it also hit the low quality button out of spite?

    t's nothing like 15 minutes, but Lemmy doesn't federate posts instantly either.

    And for Hubzilla, it depends on the outgoing queue. It can range from instant to awhile.

    But we can edit and delete our posts, and most major fediverse platforms will comply with our update and delete requests. But as users who understand a bit about decentralized social media, we understand that once it is sent, there is no guarantee that third parties will delete or update it. The average Threads user probably does not understand that yet.

  • Apparently they either don't realize that there is a Update mechanism in ActivityPub that allows you to edit your post any time, or this is a temporary measure until they implement it.

  • @xia From our angle it might be about 72 degrees, but for the guy standing on it, it might feel hotter. :-D
