Reaffirming of what?

That twitter is a walking corpse?

My timeline is full of bots, spam and trolls and it looks like it gets worse with the day.

If Spez likes that future for Reddit then sure.

"Meta and met with them after signing an NDA"

This should tell quite enough.

Yes. Rotating between Lemmy & Kbin.

Actually getting work done during the day also.

Reddit on Mobile is completely dead to me and I will only use it on my desktop for specific searches if the info is not available elsewhere (last resort).

0.1% of the time wil be spend on Reddit, with an ad blocker of course.

Why should it be ads?

There are so many different ways to have some form of monetization that is not intrusive.

Running Ads is not the only way to keep the lights on.

I registered and got through yes.

I registered just before the influx of users from reddit I assume and I am gonna be honest I didn't put in a full essae.

I think Beehaw is a great instance who shows what the Fediverse can be and is about.

I love that they actually shout out 1 of the instances instead of Lemmy or Kbin as a whole.

I used "F1 lemmy" multiple times in google already and the top post(s) were links to the F1 lemmy.

It works.

This is the shitposting I live for

"I regularly get called a power-hungry mod by the crybabies who get angry when they aren't allowed to break the very clearly stated rules, and repeat their offenses after getting first, sometimes second warnings. They run to other places and go try to stir up other crybabies to come and cause the same kind of trouble."

Isn't there something about this in the rules/code of conduct or something?

I've seen the vitrol that mods get called on the daily.

Why isn't Reddit taking concrete action against this?

I see it as Reddits obligation to educate the community about moderators and what they do on the daily.

It is in their best interest to of course not do the above because otherwise moderators may actually feel like an important part of the eco system.

And Reddit would not like that.

"Do you think Reddit cares? Honestly."

My post says what I think. Of course they don't they haven't cared for the better part of 8 years. It's why I ran PDS and stopped with using Reddit as of this week.

"But there are people who need these little rest stops. They need a place to post a picture of their Mickey Mouse balloon, or their engagement photo in front of the castle, or their debate about what on earth the writing on some poster says. It makes them happy and there's a whole blossoming community there, of happy people in a safe space."

You know that Reddit will use this as leverage whenever they can right?

"We're just some stupid, terminally-online folks who need to touch grass. Doing unpaid labor for an abusive place that doesn't care. All to make some little virtual people on the other side of a box (who also hate us) happy."

Why would you even talk about yourself like that?

If it wasn't clear I am hardcore in the moderator camp.

I would not be a moderator even if you would glue me to a chair and threaten me to mod or I would be forced to watch every season of seinfeld in that same chair. I absolutely despise seinfeld.

You are literally the gateway between the community and Reddits pockets. Why do you think that Facebook pays a buttload of cash for their moderators.

I come of as harsh maybe, but for some reason I feel like I care more for the moderators then the moderators do for themselves.

You should be proud of the work you do and the shit you take on the daily.

Sorry if I come on strong, but believe me it isn't to dunk on you or the moderators in any way, shape or form.

I am probably way to invested in this part of the saga so I will stop posting about this part at all.
