Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.
Avoid AI generated content.
Avoid misinformation.
Avoid incomprehensible posts.
No threats or personal attacks.
No spam.
Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

I don't have to imagine, I am legally blind. You're the second digressive victimizer 🧵 not providing synthesized speech for every single 196 post & comment. I am providing contracted English IPA compliant text. If your TTS doesn't support these characters& their sounds, it's a choice issue, not a technical one.
You don't have to patronize me in language, I know 7. Your TTS may know less.
linux has 2 popular (useable) screenreaders that arent tied to the desktop enviroment, which i choose not to use for the sake of conserving power. both of these screenreaders are old and overall unmaintained. they didnt work on the most recent debian (bookwork) version a few years after that version had released, and i wouldnt be supprised if the same is true for the most recent version right now.
while i could use gnome or kde, they have issues on my hardware that make it difficult to use (kde freezing, and for gnome my storage is very limited to under 256GB)
its not like i havent chosen the good TTS, its that there isnt any good TTS afaik, that works on x11 and has good language support and is up to date and works without consuming all of my limited resources.
I can finally read your 本音, and sympathize with your struggles.
My polycule & I want to emigrate to either Iceland or Luxembourg to rehost accessibility services in a cooperative internet service provision.
Yeah, espeak is unmantained. And I need mutual aid to enby voicebank a TTS model I can yield free to use. Wife knows ASL, and she’s learning the rest to make MotionGens for your favorite characters in text to sign + synths.
awesome :3 i still have the ability to read and write with no help but the future might not be that way. also, i have great sympathy for those worse off than i am, and do my best to make what i create available to as many as i can
