Very sad about this.
You must log in or register to comment.
the last panel really nails it. They may be decent but damn was that a bad decision.
Comments are saying there are a lot of instances that could be used instead of LW, what would be some examples? I want to start a community eventually and if LW and Blahaj are not good places I would like to know what good alternatives would be
i like shitjustworks because the admins like to not interfere much with what the users do unless absolutely necessary and it has generally good vibes. TheDude who hosts the instance runs it on insanely overspecced hardware as well, so the interface is very responsive, the performance is excellent and the uptime is enterprise level.
if i were to name a linux distro with a similar vibe it would be debian, whereas LW is ubuntu and blahaj is the btw distribution
Thank you, appreciate the linux analogy too lmao
What happened? .world is one of the ‘bad guy’ instances now?
more like “bad overcrowded space”
none of the admins are malicious outright but they are ill equipped to administer to such a volume of userspace
It’s not that .world is bad per-se, it’s just that the idea behind lemmy is to spread things out across multiple federated instances, and everyone is essentially piling up there
I never liked .world due to how toxic their discord admins acted towards my suggestion of a matrix Server, only to then make a matrix Server a few weeks later.
i agree but can we not use ableist memes for this please
i hear your concern, let me know if you can think of an alternative template i will put some thought in as well
Maybe something like this:
It would be better to have mods elected by the community after a certain amount of time. Like leave it up to the users or the main site admin. Might also lead to less mod burn out too.
iirc there are many templates that follow the “something good, something better, something bad” format
the one i can think of right now is this one:
