Why would I, it’s not my argument to make. If you have problem with the protest open your own subreddit as you’ve already been told to, you are not entitled to free moderation services.

Revolt seems to be to Discord what Lemmy/Kbin are to reddit, but I dont see most people bothering with it unless discord makes some reeaaallly huge mistakes to piss the community off.

Hope we get some comparable options yet, I only know of matrix and that one allegedly has tons of security and performance issues.

But… they are literally the mods of r/antiwork, a community based around calling out unfair treatment by bosses and gathering strength to quit and find better employment.

You can’t make this shit up, it’s so stupid - it’d be unbelievable if it weren’t for the fact that it actually happened.

The moment you get actual content creators to move off twitter and provide their content on mastodon, I’m deleting it too. Until then I don’t really see mastodon being a proper replacement, if anything it looks like bsky is taking the lead in that area unfortunately. Besides, half of mastodon community is seemingly against the idea of becoming mainstream anyway… so I dunno if it’s ever going to work out that way.

I think people responding to this with “just defederate them” or something in that vein are missing the point - the software lemmy is still being developed by “potential” tankies. It’s not just an issue if they will ban you from the main instance if you speak against CCP, they decide what gets added to lemmy repo and in which direction they take the development and who’s allowed to contribute.

I don’t know enough yet to make a decision about it so i’m using both lemmy and kbin for now. Just wanted to point out that “ignore them” is not really an answer that solves everything. And besides, it is always good practice to be skeptical about who you’re giving your data and money to on the internet.

Yep, without actual big content creators the platform is just randos talking about their private life. That’s not inherently a bad thing but Mastodon often feels to me more like Facebook for software developers than something like Twitter where’d if actually find interesting new people to follow or art/music/games to enjoy.

Lack of proper discovery tools and algorithm is also a big issue.

If you think you can do a better job than the mods you are free to open your own warframe-themed subreddit and moderate it. You have no right to demand anything of the mods when most of the community is backing them up in this too.

While they’re still mods they can still affect some level of change.

If they can’t endure even a 1 week strike on a social network then they cannot affect any change anyway because they are a completely powerless farce. Imagine how quickly they’d fold if this were a RL thing with actual consequences beyond their moderator position.

I mean have we forgotten when last year the mod of that sub went to a live interview and the whole subreddit was so ashamed they had to distance themselves from it? I think the day later they said nobody will interview anymore and they removed the person as a mod and wiped any trace of it? They are a joke, this is just another event that proves it.
