Well, to sum up the story, I was part of a community on Reddit that was extremely poorly moderated, but also because most of the users were very rude, right? And that blessed system of Karma, created a separation of classes between them, you understand, which is ridiculous. But since it is a very controlled and moderate environment, and the intellectual level of the people here is much higher, I’m thinking about recreating this group. What kind of rules should I put in the description to avoid confusion?
do it and expect to see divides similar to what you saw on reddit; but that’s the beauty of the fediverse.
when your community’s collective group-think becomes unpalatable to a significant portion of its members (and it will eventually since lemmy is political at its core) they’ll go off and create their own duplicate community without that toxic group-think.
