  • It’s disappointing to see only one reply (so far) challenging your request. Why do you want a unique distro for day to day?

    I’ve used a variety of unique distros simply to explore them, or for specific purposes which the OS uniquely fills. And it’s great that some non-unique OSs have workflows that change the ways a new user may be familiar with (e.g. tiling window managers). But I’ve ultimately had a great time picking a stable, popular daily driver and creatively customizing it to look and act unique and personalized.

  • (edit: I accidentally a word and didn’t realize you wrote ‘auto-report instead of deleting them’. Read the following with a grain of salt)

    I’ve played (briefly) with automated moderation bots on forums, and the main thing stopping me from going much past known-bad profiles (e.g. visited the site from a literal spamlist) is not just false positives but malicious abuse. I wanted to add a feature which would censor an image immediately with a warning if it was reported for (say) porn, shock imagery or other extreme content, but if a user noticed this, they could falsely report content to censor it until a staff member dismisses the report.

    Could an external brigade of trolls get legitimate users banned or their posts hidden just by gaming your bot? That’s a serious issue which could make real users have their work deleted, and in my experience, users can take that very personally.
