  • Something 72T mentioned in their selfcrit

    This was not just my own isolated belief - other moderators who pay closer attention to the broader site culture than I do (as I stay in the news mega 95% of the time) were adamant that these changes be made, as they have repeatedly said that comrades from certain minority groups have been turned off from joining or staying on the site due to the site culture.

    How exactly do we know this about the joining part? And how much of “site culture” is being misconstrued by liberals on other parts of lemmy? It’s no secret that other lemmy instances lie like anything else about here.






  • According to kristina, 10% of the site are mods (hyperbole maybe but who knows). So who's to say users having legitimate dissenting opinions aren't being silenced by particular mods because they don't like the blowback. Certainly no transparency around mod actions as mentioned.



  • the_dunk_tank in the past month is ranked; 6th users/month, 3rd posts, 2nd comments.

    Ah yes changes to that comm are exactly like a site wide discussion on banning "some random guy over a weird comment".

    Say the line Bart

    "deeply unserious"





  • Or just ban people for opposing it I guess

    Also not having ownership of who has actually done the post removal/ban is bullshit. Own your action. Rarely i'd say there's been consensus. Too much happens on this site to be discussing every action.


  • Like if something is deadass a major problem with the site, pitch you case for changing what is wrong.

    And site examples so users actually know where the line is and why something is problematic. Can't learn anything by just scolding and effectively saying "you know what they did wrong"
