If anyone ever messaged me with a suggested addition to the sidebar for one of my communities, it would make my day. This is fedi, not reddit -- be friendly with your local mod.
I only really run one, but I'd be ecstatic if someone made a good recommendation for a related community.
The moderators on lemmy are just as bad as on reddit in some cases. Fuck your local moderator, in some cases.
They are the reason lemmy doesn't take off, it's the same dynamic, every person in authority backs up their compatriots. From government to reddit to lemmy, it's all the same.
I don't want to call the moderators fucking losers, but it's accurate in some cases. And all moderators will back them up. And it is why lemmy is a backwater that enjoys no expansion of the user base.
Without addressing that, this is all pointless. There should be clear rules, enforced equally, with appeals, leading to a jury trial of members for enforcement actions. Without that, we are just a mini reddit.
This is some real "I did my poli-sci bachelors on youtube" big-brain shit
Gibberish. I know you would cry victim if I told you you suck, so I won't.
Neat
Your comment history, including some comments in this post, are full of insults, rude remarks, and flaming. I can see exactly why you've had messages removed by moderators.
That's not a Lemmy problem, that's a you problem. It's not hard interacting with other people without sweeping insults.
You are lying. I am polite to everybody that isn't a piece of fucking shit. Or expousing a wrong opinion.
You are a person that tries to get people cancelled that you can't argue against with reason.
Given just your comments on this thread, I think they're bang on the money. Grow up.
I'm not sure what about my comment made you feel that "fuck you" was an appropriate response, but I assure you it was not.
I don't see any such comment on this thread. But yes.
