I’m ready to discuss maple syrup on HoserLoonieSorryEh

You’re the one that suggested reading logs helps. Burden of proof and all that.

We have the best commenters. Because of ban.

I don’t see how documenting a user’s deleted comment history helps with abusive mods and admins, or promotes either participation or consumption. Care to enlighten me?

Yes, they need, but for “normies” there’s little reason to, and you have the first mover penalty.

Which is great, but for “news” there seems to be one major community and even then there’s like 3 comments on the typical post. Any “news” communities on other instances have zero.

I have very popular hobbies (football, formula1, to name a few) and there is no community for them. Just not enough users.

Good for you, that’s probably the most important feature for the average redditor, not content relevant to them…

As a user of programming.dev I know that 99% of users don’t read the documentation and just go for whatever is easiest / less effort.

Because “white” is a race…

I read Southern London and was very puzzled for a second.
