Hi all,

Bummer that it needs to be spelled out but okay. I will change the sidebar when I can log on to a computer but thought it made sense to provide this update here.

The sidebar will read:

The conflict was the user (hamid) in the post causing conflict, not the post itself. The post only breaks your new rule of not posting articles.

Cross-posting content is not a “conflict”, it’s a basic functionality of the software.

Do you understand that I am the person who removed the post? Why are you are arguing with me about why I did it?

The only reason I am continuing to reply is to make sure that anyone else who comes across this thread is clear that removed the post because of the reasons I have previously stated:

The content itself did not belong here - that's pretty straight forward I hope.

I do not want this community to be a platform for people's conflict with another instance. - The individual who makes these cross posts has a link in their profile about why they do it, and it is because of the conflict they have with the instance. This behaviour is damaging to this community because it is not genuine engagement. It is a vehicle for their conflict.

I don't know why people are treating me like I'm not well aware of this user, the way he uses the platform, and also that the individual you named in your comment is not a fan. It's insulting.

My personal opinion on this is largely irrelevant but I will share this: I think the emphasis on engagement metrics is harmful to the kind of communities I want to belong to and it annoys me when I encounter it.

Anyone is welcome to share their experiences with nature, but that behavior is not.
