Great write up, I enjoyed the reading the explanations for each piece and found them to be clear and quite thorough. I did make the mistake though of clicking "+ expand source", and after seeing the (remarkable) abomination I can

I see, thanks for sharing! I think given the cost advantage for s3 for storage, it seems almost better to pull from R2 into s3 for long-term storage (some inverse slurper). It's good to hear though that R2 can singlehandedly match s3+c

I don't think Cloudflare's free egress covers video storage and retrieval https://community.cloudflare.com/t/can-we-serve-video-with-r... Please correct me if I am mistaken; also R2 is not a CDN, and more lik

> Well, I seriously doubt it's due to incompetence. I agree with you on that, as well as taking an ML approach. Querying the hooks and symbols directly can lead to the false positive vs spam tradeoff that TheDong is referring to els

I happen to know someone in this case, and am not assuming good faith from the company by any means. I trust and respect the individual. I'm also generally interested in the comment moderation problem myself, and have been working on i

I know they have team(s) of very smart people dedicated to solving this issue (at least at the individual level). So assuming they care, I can think of two main reasons as to why it is not solved yet, both related to scale as Marques mentio

I used to watch some of Zizek's videos, though I hadn't seen the one that was linked until now. I'm no student of philosophy though, just a casual viewer so I don't think I can help much in answering your questions. I wi

I hadn't heard of uTok before, I'll add that to my reading list as well! Sounds like they were doing something similar in style to the lyrics site Genius's attempt mentioned elsewhere in this thread. We're committed to m

Thanks Abishek! I do think Netvyne addresses the need to interact with others on a website as mentioned. In fact, this particular need-gap was something we've thought about, and we do already have a live chat section built into the ext

As of now, we have a moderation portal and a team on standby to keep the site humming along. To get a sense of how decisions are made, you can see our content policy: https://www.netvyne.com/content-policy There's also

I hadn't heard of this one before, I'll read up on it! The Netvyne extension does have a live chat tab as well by the way; its definitely a different experience with live chat vs comments. For sites that a lot of people are on at

Yup, cold start problem is one of our main challenges, and we'll be trying out a variety of approaches to solve it. Actually the Netvyne extension can be used in conjunction with FB (and other social media platforms, for that matter. N

I think it shares some similarities! Netvyne has more of a focus on the leaving/reading of comments as you browse.

Dissenter is indeed one of the many predecessors! I'm glad you share the sentiment that its worth exploring; if you do get a chance to try it out, let us know what you think/would like to see!

It seems you have a pretty solid grasp of our policy; its all in order to meet our goal of enabling civil discussion. Indeed, misinformation is tough and is in my opinion the trickiest one. I actually didn't think nudity would be as di

Yeah this is the best configuration we could find. We'll have the full source up later tonight too, so if you have suggestions on what how to improve you can create an issue/PR here once its ready: https://github.com&#x

I see, thanks for following up! We did try to reduce the permissions as much as possible, but I believe at this time every permission is required by some feature. I get your point though, and I'll try to see what else we can do in this

I've thought about it some more, and have decided to open source the extension at 5AM Pacific Time. I'll also post an update on Twitter+LinkedIn It will be accessible at this link: https://github.com/netvyne/e

Good question! We'll be deleting comments on dead links; I don't think they serve much purpose since they don't show up on the main site's aggregator, nor will people likely be visiting dead links with the extension inst

Ah I see, thanks for the additional context! I was aware of the toolbar extension scams that used to take place, but not of this particular pattern you are mentioning of hand-offs. Credibility is indeed a hard problem, with respect to both

Unicorn? No, that's not the end goal. We're trying to address the unmet need to be able to comment on any URL in a civil manner. This is an unmet need that has frustrated us (the Netvyne Team), and our friends circle, for quite so

Over time, we believe can build tools to differentiate ourselves with regard to quality of moderation. Indeed, this is the challenge that we intend to undertake head on. Our privacy policy is here: https://netvyne.com/privac
