MODERATORS
Truth be told, this doesn't change much, but I'd still like to make it official.
As of about 17 days ago, I have stepped down as the head mod of 196 on both this platform and lemmy.world. I will be yielding that title to the much more qualified Qaz, who's been functionally in charge for quite a while now.
Despite what you may think, I make this choice really only for one reason: I don't have nearly enough spare time in my life to be consistently available enough to be head mod.
What does this change/what does this mean?
To be honest, pretty much nothing for all of you. I've barely been available for the past however many months it's been, and in that time the community has been run exclusively by Qaz and the rest of the team.
All that you'll see changed is that Qaz will at times be the one that makes an announcement, and Qaz is now the only person that can make moderatorial decisions (bans, ect) without checking with the rest of the team (a power reserved for head mod).
I'll still be around. I'm still a mod, I'll still do announcements at times, and the rules post will most likely stay as my account, but from now on Qaz, gets the final say, not me.
Neither of those two look much like Freddie Mercury to me.
Good luck with your shit moss, thanks for giving LGBTQ people who are bullied off of .blahaj a home :3
thank you. And god, yes. I'm glad to be out of that space.
Horrid vibes. Not sure why, but it reminds me of my 2016 stint on devientart
