Hi there.
A short introduction: This is an alt account. I’m a moderator here who has been unhappy with the state of news/political discussions here for a long time. The admins have kindly given me the opportunity to see if we can make some improvement the community here.
We will be doing some major revision of the rules left by the previous moderators and will use discussions in this thread as feedback on the direction we should take our community.
This will be an open discussion on the state of our community, the rules and our moderation practices. Feel free to give your inputs.
My goal is to foster thoughtful discussion in our community, and not let this place be a replica of r/politics.
First order of business, immediate rule change.
On !politics@lemmy.world, effectively immediately, we will no longer restrict political discussion to the politics of the United States of America. Discussion regarding of the state of politics from around the world is now welcome.
I will leave this pinned for 1-2 weeks for our team to take feedback and make our proposals then.
Thanks for explaining that. That’s why I’m weirded about the lemmy world admins, that’s what happened to me from them. They then show a thread where the original comment was changed. I trust you guys, not the lemmy world admins. I think you guys have been and could continue to be doing a great job and then they can come in and change whatever on a whim, like they just did. I really liked this community and the way you ran it, sad to go.
Edit: When I say “just did”, I mean how they changed a comment and then linked to it as evidence with the entire attitude of a troll. The mod being removed seemed justified.
Bruh…
You’ve spent 7 hours in this thread going on about how you’re totally ready to stop posting here…
Have you thought about just not posting here?
Mom, I’m leaving!!!
I’m replying to comments that I wanted to talk to bruh, good to know you’re keeping track, lol.
“they changed a comment before linking it”
You can even see when the post was last edited, this is just false 🤷🏻
Edit: saying we changed the comment and calling the admins here trolls while we were really just trying to be helpful. You’re no longer welcome here
Instead of complaining for 8 (!) hours maybe put your money where your mouth is, block this instance and focus on your own community.
Like someone else pointed out nobody is forcing you to be here 🥱
