  • I definitely have no skin in the game here, but wow just skimming some of the discussion topics, it sounds like a small group of people want to monopolize a fairly easy to vocalize domain for a very specific purpose of power-modding it rather than any sincere attempt at being an all-encompassing community.

    Kind of like how some people are moderators / owners for some 30-40 communities on popular instances and flooding some of them with submissions as if all they do for a day job is to do that under the guise of “sharing content” while giving little to no room for anything to stick long enough to garner discussion (I don’t know about the next person, but the “content” is the discussion, not the shared link).

    These people are not leaders nor are they effective community managers. Rather they want to monopolize the community to serve a particular motive, and are leveraging the fact they’ve become “landed gentry” to shape a community that fits their wishes, rather than one spun together by the engagement of its members.

    Think it’s funny that the lemmynsfw instance is having its own internal mutiny. tl;dr - ex-admin reported the server to their host prompting a server migrate
