“If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators[…]. If […] at least one mod wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.”
Their application of the “Moderator Code of Conduct” is shoddy and slapdash to say the least.
I was a mod for /r/Edinburgh and after a post about people handing out anti-semitic leaflets (and the subsequent fascist-baiting and ban-hammering) I started getting reported by butthurt nazi supporters for abusing them in the thread, Modmail and DM’s, but I’m the one that got a permanent account suspension (even though according to the CoC that shouldn’t have happened), the UK mod-relations admin and other admin just ghosted me and another mod who tried to get involved and help.
To put a festering cherry on the shit-sundae, some of those pro-fascist scumbags are still active and commenting.
So after all these years now we get a tool to deal with problematic mods?
Only when its inconvenient for spez. Normal users get fucked by shit mods for a decade, radio silence.
Yeah, moderate your empty sub, because all your content creators have moved here.
Bets on how long it will take google to realise that site:lemmy should index the whole fediverese to keep their top spot?
because all your content creators have moved here
That is drastically overselling our success here.
Reddit will survive this. It’ll be a worse Reddit, with slightly more reposts, slightly less OC. Some percentage will move on, and a percentage of that percentage will move here.
If we manage to build communities that have enough people to be engaging, that is a win. We will not kill Reddit, and anyone who believes that needs to readjust their expectations.
