What's happening in 3 years time?
Apparently some eldritch eye-monster will visit all the Lemmy's administrators in 3 years, or something like that.
The sight of such a squamous monstrosity would flay my sanity, but I'd definitely be intrigued to look upon it's terrible splendour.
I'd give you Reddit gold for the use of the word 'squamous' if I could.
I will accept
Well, have three then!
Woooo! I now have four Feddit silver. Living it large.
I will accept
Well, have two then!
The threadverse is going to explode in popularity and we will be receiving hourly updates of admin abuse actions.
Righto. I will keep an eye out for this.
Some of the moderators within federated instances including most of Lemmy are such pearl clutching, pathetic fucking losers, that the level of censorship happening here will likely triple due to the influx of big corpo social media pushing people out who don't conform to the status quo.
But not the Mods of this instance, right?
Sorry Emp. You're one of the biggest target around here.
But I've lost loads of weight!
Every instance, including this one, will likely have said pathetic loser pearl clutcher who doesn't like naughty words or deletes comments based on their own unequitable biased opinion. So, fuck-to-the yes.
There's always the other route instances can take, not enough censorship, where the instance gets overrun by nazis a la 4chan
A very good and salient point that I am unwilling to refute because I agree
Ask yourself if you’ve ever met a socially well adjusted human who is a long term moderator.
I’ve met plenty of decent people who have moderated for a time (at the very beginning of a community for example) or tried it and then walked away.
But never someone who does it for years on end.
I assume it’s because long term mods seek power they lack in their own lives because of poor social adjustment but happy to read a paper on this.
I would love a platform that has collective community moderation through content flagging and voting which does away the need for mods.
