RetroFed Forum

Welcome to the nostalgia-filled piefed instance of yesteryear.

Open Registration with Application questionnaire.

If you have a question or comment you can post in !meta@retrofed.com or message @DosDude@retrofed.com or @Die4Ever@retrofed.com

In case of downtime and/or emergency, we will post updates on @DosDude@mastodon.social

Some rules we try to uphold:

Be civil. Bigotry is not welcome. This includes (but is not limited to): transphobia, queerphobia, racism, ageism and ableism. We do not promote hate.
Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

Afaiu some instances or apps have ‘starter packs’.

Only visible if someone makes a comment in a sub that you mod.

Fortunately, here we are in charge of our blocks (for the most part).

Well, there is a difference between having a situation, where some comunities do use automation tools to ban/unban and where the whole platform uses them.

Your post should have more upvotes! Thanks for testing and sharing the information. I'm going to try it, I don't have a reddit account anymore, so I would fail on step one (don't have a sus account) but I think the general idea is replaceable for getting people to join fedi from any other site

You can try without having step 1 in place, but you might get picked up by reddit's filters.

If you have a brand new account you often can't post in most subs or will get flagged for Advertising etc.
