I'm not going to miss all this mod drama. Imagine being so wrapped up in your own bullshit, that you lose sight of the fact that you are a volunteer for a multi billion dollar capitalized organization, that has just a few guys literally about to cash out with billions here shortly. And it's all on your back. Like what kind of muppet loser gets this drawn into dramatical bullshit like this?

The whole reddit thing was always going to disolve into an inevitable death spiral of horseshit, it's only due to the honest to goodness mods trying to be good souls, that they were able to stave it off this long. The world's just become too fucked up of a place when we are all connected like this, especially with the events of the last few years. Then you throw a few capitalists into the room, hoo boy.

The only way this Lemmy thing works out, is if it's well moderated (ie keep the spam and the actual bullshit off, otherwise fuck off with all the weird incel angsty drama), and if we can somehow keep the fat cats away from it. The whole federated thing is pretty genius, and is probably the best solution we are going to be able to manage to come up with at this time, as a firewall for that sorta stuff. I'm really excited to see where it goes from here.
