Thank you, I try ️

I've been thinking on another post about the fediverse and its culture lately (different vein from the last one though), but we'll see if I ever actually sit down and write it all out

Hope you have a good one! Its always lovely to see your name and icon around

Totally support your decision.

Edit: down voting the person I'm replying to isn't needed, the conversation about which cultural norms we do or don't wanna keep from reddit may be easier to have without the downvotes

This is a the threadiverse, most of the super active posters really do give life to the communities they frequent because no one else posts, and in my experience, are generally reasonable, good folks, if still human and fallible. If sunshine is choosing not to name and shame, it may just be someone having a bad day, or not noticing they broke a rule, or a disagreement they had over whether a rule should or shouldn't be as it is, where sunshine had the final say as moderator

That was very true on reddit, but I don't wanna bring the same "active posters suck" mentality here to the threadiverse just because it was an understandable sentiment on reddit. We have much fewer users, and only a tiny subset of that already small number posts or reposts anything

Shutout to @PugJesus@lemmy.world and @fossilesque@mander.xyz, my fave regular posters

I was a ‘top 1% contributor’ in a subreddit (which I only discovered when opening new Reddit in an incognito tab) and had many productive conversations, until the mods banned links to sites that I used, started requiring links to sites that are blocked in my country, and removed my comment over it. Quickest I ever quit a community.

I had about 770k comment karma and was top 1% in about 20 communities. They didn't hesitate to get rid of me for "inciting political violence" smfh

And then here, the rules are partially based on feelings so I'm not sure if it's better or worse, I self-censor more here I think.

"And here we see a rare example of the English pasent tense..."

Well then check out my posts in !music@lemmy.world, dangit! That community desperately needs some action.

Someone needs to scour the modlog to find the person hah

Is that a slur? When used as a verb? And would that be against the rules here? If so, oh the irony. 'Twas nice knowing you, valiant Sunshine...

Reddit rolled out some wacky automatic moderation lately, that shadow-hides comments based on keywords, and optionally issues warnings to the users. Its severity depends on the particular subreddit. The beauty of it, of course, is that it doesn't take any context into account, and in fact doesn't involve a human until an appeal (if at that, even). Moreover, discussion of Reddit moderation itself may also be hidden.

You might've not been aware of it unless you've opened the threads in which you participated, in an incognito tab.

Nothing happened, why are people trying to start drama over a joke.

No, it means to "tell on" someone.

I know what it means; I wasn't being serious. I know that Sunshine is not the type to use speciesist slurs.
