MODERATORS
I think its because we aren't allowed by default to post images, which I completely understand after what happened back a couple months ago. I've been using Lemmy for more then 4 months actively but yet I still don't have permission to post pictures because of the fact that I'm too lazy to even try to get it enabled. This is a major reason why we aren't seeing a lot of content.
Also, this tends to be mostly a leftist leaning app, so maybe some people get drawn away.
Can you explain to me what happened a couple months ago why people can't post pictures? And what should one do to enable it?
CSAM Spam. That's what happened. Most people thankfully only noticed the moderator posts, but those understandably don't want to have to filter that all day long.
How do you get image upload enabled btw?
