New mod enforcing the lemmy.world rule about only posting info relevent to the server. The community was not intended to be a /all. Irrelevent but useful posts to reddit refugees are being left up for a while and highly upvoted posts are being locked.
Another approach would've been to just create another community for instance specific discussion and change the rules of c/lemmy.world
True enough, I don't have a preference either way.
Use dictates rules. This is why the blackout happened. Arbitrarily enforcing obscure initial intent that has never been enforced, and does not reflect use is counterproductive nonsense and anti community. Make a new sub that suits the old purpose.
Or just make a new sub that fits the new purpose? Goes both ways. The community is for server announcements and the like that people should probably see.
No. Use dictates the direction of the community, not mods. Mods should be invisible and enforce the direction the community decides. A visible mod is a bad mod in every instance.
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ I'm just sayin man it's clearly stated in the community rules and has been for a while as far as I can tell. I get what you're saying but if I create a soccer sub and people start posting football livestreams I'd ask them to make their own space too.
Fair enough but with the explosive growth from reddit refugees I don't think @ruud would have been able to do that.
He did just fine. I was here watching since 1.21k total users. He is not a visible mod but does what is needed when it is needed
All love, guess we'll see how it plays out.
