I propose de-anonymising the moderators names in the mod log for transparency.

The community is currently refederated with the blahaj instance. Going forward issues like this are to be addressed at first in a less public way if possible...

There is no reason for our communities to have a beef we both basically advocate for the same things in our own way.

For transparency I unremoved all the removed comments with one exception in the other thread and locked it... 🍿 I also removed any bans that resulted from that thread.

Ada pretty much fully explained the original issue:

Blahaj zone admin here. There’s quite a bit of confusion and misunderstanding in this thread.

No one is “selectively removing NCD content” or anything close to it.

What happened is that 6 months ago, CDRMITTENS was instance banned from lemmy.blahaj.zone over an anti Palestinian meme they posted. You can see the mod log for that here https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/modlog?postId=11419938. This meme conflated Hamas and Palestinians in general, and basically blamed Palestinians for their own genocide. Notably, the post also broke NCD rules 2 and 5, but wasn’t removed by NCD mods.

As a result of CDRMITTENS being instance banned, none of their content reaches lemmy.blahaj.zone anymore. You can see that for yourself here https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/u/CDRMITTENS@sh.itjust.works, which shows that no content from this user has reached blahaj.zone. There was no selective removal or editing of content at play, because none of their content reached blahaj.zone to be able to selectively remove it.

tl;dr - It’s just an instance ban, not selective moderation

So let's all be friendly again. 🥹👉👈 On a final note Estiar and neidu have been added to the mod team.

Shamelessly appropriated.

Meta housekeeping update the last one for a while I hope:

I have made the following people mods from last week's vote on !minipcs@sh.itjust.works.

@fist_of_fartitude@sh.itjust.works

@verity_kindle@lemmy.world

@SpicyPeaSoup@kbin.social

@nuke@yah.lol

@skillissuer@lemmy.world

On the second vote regarding reddit mod team integration. I reached out to the two mods on Lemmy.

I have made @Hellschwarz@feddit.de a mod. The other mod @gkanor@lemmy.world has not responded but I did inform him he would need to post in this community to be made a mod due to Lemmy limitations.

Ideally there are enough mods that there should not be much work between them. I have not given any of them directions on what to do I'm sure they will sort it out and hopefully not over moderate. They have my permission to do whatever they think is the best action. Please send me a pm if this experiment goes off the rails...

On the meta/vote community we used !minipcs@sh.itjust.works it will be transferred to @sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works and turned into it's original purpose of being a community for minipc discussion. This is planned for August 31st at the latest and ideally sooner if there is no drama about the vote counts or whatever...

If you notice some kind of problems with the mod team please send me a pm. If you can include a screenshot.

Anyways it's been fun I'm going to step back to lurking mode and try not to constantly check Lemmy.

Shamelessly appropriated.

I have medical issues so will most likely be way less active/around pretty soon. I want some community input before that happens.

Please vote/keep discussion here: !minipcs@sh.itjust.works

This is a vote on if we want to continue trying to communicate/integrate with the reddit team and make them community mods or not.

Please only vote yes/no/status quo.

This vote is ranked choice.

If you want to discuss do it in the discussion thread 2 in this community.

Votes will end Friday 5:00pm cst July 28th.
