MODERATORS
I don't subscribe because I find myself having knee jerk reactions to posts promoting plant based capitalism and I don't want to be unkind and get into fights on the internet.
That's not really a suggestion, more an observation.
Perhaps a vegan theory community would make sense? I hesitate to suggest it because I know I won't make the effort to contribute.
Eta: I like the weekly threads!
You're the final decision maker which is an important role to play, I need you to be a second set of eyes so that I do not act unilaterally or too rashly. Pulling back the curtain a bit I've now known you for a while and highly respect and trust you. Between the community and you I think that we can make good decisions together. The announcements thread was for me to gauge opinions but unfortunately instead of a reasonable discussion it became about US politics and manipulation.
Always happy to add some inertia to things lol.
Replying here for transparency to the community: I didn't reply to the thread about defederating (except to ask for clarification from one person) because I don't have an opinion on this topic. I don't browse the wider lemmiverse so I don't interact with other instances except for a few communities I subscribe to. I'm also not really online here enough to get a sense of if some instances seem to attract people who cause issues and I don't read the mod logs.
I don't want to give the impression that I don't want to engage in discussion or am discussing community impacting things only in private.
In conclusion:
I really did not like this. I want to know more about shitjustworks, I had previously only seen their worst comms and moderator behaviour but recently I have seen well-meaning posts and class consciousness on the instance. Instead almost every single comment was off topic, a complete waste of time.
I have made a post on clothing that hopefully will help sharing of information.
