Doing My Part

Your friends need you. They always need you. They never stop. They are rage, brutal, without mercy. But you. You will be worse. Rip and tear, until it is done.

I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.

Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?

Edit: I didn't expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you... I can't reply to everyone. I'm an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I'm really sad too, but I'm finding that lemmy has most of the content I'm looking for, just needs more comments.

The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.

One thing that annoyed me about moving to Lemmy was that I'd lose my subreddits and that looking for and joining communities on Lemmy would be tedious. So (logically) I spent 2 days writing a script, that gets a list of your subreddits from your reddit account and looks for communities with the same name on Lemmy. It also joins those communites. So all you have to do is download, enter your credentials and you're done.

So it's probably time to add some moderators, not necessarily because things are out of hand or anything, but because I'd like someone to actually nurture this community like I don't have time to. I'm talking about, for example, having regular pinned conversational live update threads, forming rules, all sorts of community building elements. On a lot of these it would probably be helpful to look at how the mod team over at r/Ukraine has handled things.

More specifically I'd really like to find someone Ukrainian who speaks the language to join the team, but that might be a bit much to ask at least in the short term.

Either way, consider this an invitation to apply if you think you'd be a good fit and you'd like to help nurture this community and help cleaning up spam and vile conduct. You'll need to message here in the thread since I believe Lemmy works in funny ways and you promote people through comments.

I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I've noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I've filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it's insane. I don't know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn't become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

If you need support, best is to not DM me here or mention me in comments. I now have 300 notifications and probably no time to read them soon. Also I don’t do moderation so any moderation questions I have to forward to the moderation team.

where to get support

There’s the !support@lemmy.world community, and another option is to send mail to info@lemmy.world. Mail is converted to tickets which can be picked up by admins and moderators.

Thanks! Enjoy your day!

After years of reddit/twitter/facebook propping up fascism/bigotry with algorithms & bots I'm honestly surprised and relieved to be in an online space that clearly rejects their ideology.

They can have reddit/facebook/twitter. AFAIC the only way to reach some of these people is to leave them alone long enough to realize on their own.

Lemmy.world admins are doing an amazing job dealing with everything. Their recent decision to defederate from exploding heads (or whatever its called) really goes to show that they're in it for the right reasons.

For expressing frustration at the amount of Reddit discussion on Lemmy, I recommend !vent@lemmy.world, !venting@lemmy.ml, or the like.

For discussions concerning Reddit, there are a few different communities you might look to such as !reddit@lemmy.world, !reddit@lemmy.ml, !RedditMigration@kbin.social, and probably others I'm unaware of. The flipside of these suggestions is that these are also the communities those uninterested in the topic may block if they wish to minimize the amount of such discussions they're seeing in their feed.

Constructive threads concerning the transfer of information or app development from Reddit to Lemmy here remain okay, but threads simply complaining will be locked and redirected to the aforementioned venting communities to vent in, or Reddit ones to block to hopefully help curate their feeds.

Thanks for your understanding, and feel free to message me if you need any help in navigating to those communities.

Ok, let's get this community rolling with some classic solo roleplaying questions! :) Here's one : in your games, are you adventuring with a single character or several? If several, how many? And is there a main character, or are they all of equal importance?

I have enjoyed Mastodon as a Twitter replacement and I'm here on Lemmy looking for a Reddit replacement.
