I don't believe the system is that granular. If you're posting in a community that is now hidden I would recommend you to subscribe to it if you want to continue to see it.

Does this instance have a concrete guideline or precedent for that or would be able to decide at the discretion of an admin?

Communities with no connection to programming culture are removed as a general rule. Other than that, it's decided on a case by case basis. It's not that uncommon for us to remove new communities that are created. We've removed the community + one another

I've replied to dessalines

It's perhaps poorly phrased, no it will only affect that specific user.

@JackbyDev@programming.dev @fuzzzerd@programming.dev As you requested

You could theoretically just loop through every community via "get_communities" and then com_obj["community_view"]["community"]["hidden"] :: boolean *I'm writing this on memory, the json structure may be slightly different

and then just subscribe to every community that pops up.

It will likely be slow though, and it's mostly NSFW + !news@lemmy.world that would pop up on c/all if you did. I also think* lemmygrad as an instance is hidden, so those communities may pop up if they tend to reach c/all.

I'll discuss with the team about making a public list of hidden communities.

I could see one if the ids in the table, but querying the community id via the API doesn't work. Not sure

The discussion has gotten completely off-topic. I'll lock the the thread until the moderators (@anzo@programming.dev @dwraf_of_ignorance@programming.dev) starts responding to reports.

I've updated the title. Ideally people will read the content of announcements though.

Please follow our Code of Conduct when interacting with our instance. Hate speech violates section 3.5 and in this instance is severe enough to lead directly to a temporary ban instead of the usual warning. Repeated offences may lead to a permanent ban.

There are 282 communities marked as hidden in our database, I'll have a talk with the team about publishing a complete list.

The current spread looks something like this:

    
lemmit.online: 89
lemmynsfw.com: 64
zerobytes.monster: 36
lemmy.world: 12
ani.social: 12
lemy.nl: 9
hexbear.net: 8
lemmygrad.ml: 7
lemmy.ml: 6
fanaticus.social: 4
lemmyf.uk: 4
lemmy.smeargle.fans: 3
selfhosted.forum: 3
programming.dev: 3
beehaw.org: 2
feddit.uk: 2
lemmy.zip: 2
academy.garden: 2
radiation.party: 1
derp.foo: 1
lemmy.dbzer0.com: 1
catata.fish: 1
lemmy.capebreton.social: 1
sh.itjust.works: 1
ttrpg.network: 1
metacritics.zone: 1
lemmy.ca: 1
communick.news: 1
gearhead.town: 1
midwest.social: 1


  

For the eagle eyed people out there, the map is 2 communities short. The basic script I wrote couldn't find them.

It's just the name of API call

When on programming.dev's communities, please follow our Code of Conduct. Your comment currently violates section 3.2 and 3.5

Reminder that our Code of Conduct (3.2, 3. 5) applies even on communities outside our instance. If you keep breaking those rules we may give you a temporary ban.

Due to federation delays it's best to run the LiveThreadBot on the local instance. I'll keep the lemmy.world bot alive for now for people over at !gunners@lemmy.world, but for !football@lemm.ee it's best to use the local @LiveThreadBot@lemm.ee

@LiveThreadBot@lemmy.world -admin_action blacklist football@lemmy.world

@LiveThreadBot@lemmy.world -admin_action blacklist lemmy@world

This is your second warning to not break our CoC (3.2).

A third warning will result in a temporary ban from programming.dev.

Discussions are getting off-topic and this is an announcement post, not a discussion post, so I'm locking the post.

If local users want to have an in-depth discussion regarding admin moderation of programming.dev, you're encouraged to make a discussion thread in !meta@programming.dev.

I can only report on what I've been told by those who have directly dealt with the reports, my apologies if parts of the phrasing are inaccurate/poorly made. I'll make a note that we should probably reach out to relevant moderators beforehand next time we make similar actions.

As for differing sensibilities, I'm not sure most people would classify this kind of content as safe to browse at work/in public.

Regardless, we are not here to make demands or argue on how other instances moderate their own content. This post is made mainly to keep our actions transparent to our local users.
