Go fuck yourself. Put the mods that built the sub back and quit your job, you are all useless.

Make me top mod so I can fix your fuckup.

db2

You and I aren't talking about the same thing here.

db2

Grow a pair and do the right thing, "the team is looking in to this" is pretty weak.

He can't fire all of you.

db2

We've tried. More than once.

db2

It mostly doesn't matter which instance you sign up with, and there can be more than one but the one is .one.

ZuccIt

Would Reddit blame the mods

That's what they've been doing so far, and they've got plenty of lackies willing to lick those boots. They would absolutely blame any mod rather than themselves.

db2

No one is posting their junk here, no one is posting mandy scam photos here.

Daily. Literally daily.

db2

Reddit has VC money

No they don't. Steve has pissed away 800 million dollars of venture capital that we know of.

db2

That would be Glorious Leader, spez. I'm sure if the shareholders at Advance Publications, who own the largest chunk of reddit, really knew how their ship was being run they'd be spitting red hot nails.

db2

The sub is open. It has been open. What are you even talking about?

db2

Like you edited yours to be substantially different than what you posted originally? No thank you, I have some principles.

db2

Half of that users contributions to the sub at all are comments like that in this thread. Disingenuous af and only here to troll/stir shit.

db2

We saw how other subs were changing their focus to a literal or comical interpretation of their name or stated purpose, but decided as a mod team pretty quickly (all of about 2.3 seconds) that we can't do that here. While we're not an immediate help sub like the ones that talk people out of unaliving themselves, we have nonetheless actually done that here more than a few times. The information we've all built up here alone is worth fighting to keep unadulterated, be that from trolls, scammers or the misguided reddit administration itself.

db2

Just use Lemmy, Threads is hoping to do what's called "federating" to use all the Lemmy content, so cut out the Zuck and go to the source.

db2

So they're doing a shit job all around then. At least there's some consistency to be found in the Aristocracy.

db2

It would be pretty funny though. It's what I planned to do here had they actually granted the request.

db2

The largest shareholder of reddit is Advance Publications, which is the parent company of Conde Nast (Wired) and Ars Technica. Do with that very much public information what you will.

db2

we need a decentralized, AI moderated social network, maybe using p2p, blockchain, or something else.

You work in sales, don't you. 😂

db2

Yes

db2

There is one there, can't link to it because I don't want to be retaliated against.

db2

Because at best that's a red herring. Data scraping can be done in your browser with a relatively small script, it doesn't need the API to work. In other words they lied about it.

db2

As I understand it reddit admin want the NSFW tag removed because the normal and expected content of here is safe for work. The mods here want a NSFW because some people are wrongly posting NSFW content here.

We're literally telling you the opposite of that.

If that's the case this is something that Reddit and Scams mods need to work out together.

Did you miss the part where they aren't willing to engage in any discussion?

db2

Unfortunately, most users don't care about the drama.

A disturbing number of them are feeding in to it though, even discounting bots and brigading. As if mods were the ones that did these things like preventing blind users from utilizing reddit. Some people latch on to any excuse to scream "MODS BAD!" even if it doesn't make any sense to.

db2

Fuckin mods, they're all literally Hitler.
