Hello everyone, Hestia here with a comm specific check-in. (hexbear.net)

I have come to the conclusion that meta-posts suck. They drain everyone of their energy, and they quickly fill up with essay long paragraphs that I have no desire or attention span to wade through and fuck up my mental health.

Rather than focus on site-wide issues, the purpose of this post is to get feedback on this specific comm. What issues do you see here specifically that you would like us to focus more on?

I hope to address problems in a pinpoint manner, and then cross reference those concerns across other comms through similar posts in order to address the bigger picture in the end.

I have no intention of having this post pinned. Too much visibility will drown out everyone's voices in a cacophony of noise. Please keep your comments relatively short and concise, using frequent paragraph breaks for longer comments so that the information can be easily digested. It helps with my ADHD

If this goes smoothly, I plan to work my way through other comms I moderate and address the specific problems there, too.

edit: I was advised to pin it to this comm, it shall remain unpinned to the main page though.

And in case it’s not clear - I’d love to hear from anyone who agrees too. I upvoted because I want to understand, but presumably the other folks upvoting are doing so more out of agreement.

If I’m coming across as in any way combative in my replies elsewhere and anyone would like to provide their thoughts without having me engage with them further, I’d like to also make it clear that if you want to “pre-emptively disengage from further comments” just let me know and I’ll not reply.
