Many people want Lord Journo, the teller of Truf to create an artificial wedge between users? Well then I certainly don’t support them either!
I want to know if someone has fact checkers looking over their shoulder or whether they’re free to pull claims out their ass till the cows come home.
You have no idea how much I’d love that. Unfortunately the last 10 years of media have shown me that this isn’t the case.
but rather one mechanism for establishing a basis for trust.
Yes, it’s disruptive at least - If not destructive to modern society that the trust in media have dropped to what I perceive to be critical levels, particularly in the last decade or two.
It’s because Lemmy allows setting a display name that shows up almost identically to a local name. If it continues to be a problem, my guess is that will be changed.
I think the first step will be to show the username next to the display name, just like on Mastodon. I will continue to assume this lemmy-specific is a non-issue on mastodon.
