Just curious to know how many mods here are
- A. still “here” and active
- B. here but given up due to lack of momentum, interest
- C. abandoned platform completely
- D. just waiting for the 1 year mark and praying new users and posters will continue to come
- E. other? (like only relying at alternative matrix chat)
I’ll be happy to see more than 10 responses from this dead community 😉
[Update 11/18]: glad to see comments, feedback, much more than I expected. Also see the modlog for actions taken. Just wanted to point out a couple of threads:
- https://lemmynsfw.com/post/2601241, by @OptimusPrime@lemmynsfw.com
- https://lemmynsfw.com/post/418317 - this topic has been hashed over and over, and I’m not about to let this thread/community get derailed.
[Update Nov 20] : WRT downvoting - see https://lemmynsfw.com/post/4581685
Not as a mod but:
B, heading towards C, thankfully.
Lemmy kinda sucks, I’m sorry. I know you disagree. Im so tired of blocking super gross communities, “collector accounts” blasting out ransom ass nudes to every niche community they can imagine (… a misguided effort to make this place seem busier than it is), OF spammers, and snapchat scammers (looking at you “19 year old Filipino girls” lol), that it legit consumes like half if my time on here. The other half is spent looking at like… 3 women that post regularly. I really enjoy those 3 women, but like… yeah… It’s unhealthy for me, can’t speak for you.
You guys (non gendered “guys”) can’t force this place to be more popular than it is. You’re watering it the fuck down with misguided attempts to “fill content” in, and it’s kinda a wierd place to be. Like walking through a sex mall full of mannequins, but nobody else is walking with you.
There’s FAR TOO MUCH PEDOPHILIA ADJACENT CONTENT HERE. You people do realize women over 18 are hot as fuck still right? I’m saying 18 to be extremely generous also… I legit will not tell anyone i know, ever, that I’ve been here, in case they mistakenly check it out and think I’m all about that life…
I’m sure you (or your baseless exaggerations) won’t be missed here 😉. Seriously though, you have the freedom and choice to balance out all my Matty posts with content you like… Go for it rather than spending your time complaining…
Ew check yourself, and the vote counts. This is not how moderators should be representing themselves. Thanks for confirming my choice not to join your mod chats.
Did the other mods give you permission to DM that screenshot of your mod chat about me, by the way, while we’re discussing misappropriations of power? Or maybe you were giving me some special treatment in hopes of the same?
Yikes that’s… wow. Sorry you’ve got to put up with shit like that.
It’s harmless to me, I’m accustomed to gross men; it’s fine. Ive got enough real men in my life to remind me they arent all that way.
I can’t speak for the user’s in my screenshot though. They may not feel so even keeled about it. Or maybe it’s not a big deal. But I think we can all agree what it looks like was attempted here.
It’s hilarious and sad. A power trip over moderating space on the internet.
It’s absolutely obvious what was attempted and it’s just sad. Hopefully everyone else was okay having private conversations being used to get a freebie 🤦
Speaking of the collectors that post bullshit all over making the place much worse…
💯 I had to unblock them just so I could see the thread, I could only see comments before 😂
I only saw it because it was top post before I logged in. I Had to unblock them also to see it/interact. Without getting into a much larger conversation about how fucked the blocking system is on Lemmy overall, I think we should all be able to agree that a more prominent community mod shouldn’t be getting blocked by so many people because they’re a spammer… it’s problematic for these reasons among many others.
Sound like they are much friendlier to content creators than me however, for suuuure.
I agree, there should be a more “normal/main stream” landing page for people because getting blasted in the face by 85 kinds of hentai, furry porn and other very niche communities is a definite turn off. It’s hard to believe there’s anything else there when you only see the above posted by 1 or 2 people.
