MODERATORS
Average Reddit Moderator right now:
I’m gonna…
I’m gonna…
I’m gonna fight misinformatioooon!
Especially given the ~~scabs~~ mods (no, actually scabs was right the first time:-) that they brought in. Shudder - it's foxes running the henhouse now, there will be blood.

Reddit gives its mods the same kind of respect drug dealers give junkies
Hey, that's not fair to drug dealers. I've heard many kind stories about dealers helping people. If something happens to their customers then they can't buy anymore. If something happens to Reddit mods, they just replace them.
Ive known some people of a very criminal inclination and most of them were actually really good people if you didnt equate laws and morality.
Spez has always been lacking in moral fiber
I think he is made of fiber
We should desiccate him to recycle his fibers
This is a good moment to remind the Lemmy devs to add more fucking mod tools
What mod tools are needed?
Let it go man…. She’s gone.
Trauma. Takes a while to get over.
Just piggybacking for a PSA: what it actually requires is emotional processing
No thanks, that sounds like work.
How many GPUs should I stick on this "emotional processing"? Does Nvidia make a customized EPU for it yet, and is it worth the buy?
It actually might be. But somehow I suspect it might require getting hardware to actually feel pain, so I'm not sure if it's a good move
edit: but some sort of automated processing could maybe be a quicker path to trauma recovery, who knows. Worth looking into. Reading neurons' state, calculating some solution, teaching them that solution, as a shortcut to emotional processing and adaptation. Could be good.
But then again it could be infinitely horrible too. I dunno
I left the day they made the switch and, after 12 years as a daily user, i haven't logged into my account since. Because of Lemmy, don't miss it one bit. The only reason I ever see reddit posts is when they happen to show up in any of my DDG searches. Usually, they show up when I'm trying to seach for info flabout a game or mods, at which point my reddit usage is purely utilitarian. I dont login and i no longer use it as any source of entertainment or online social interactions.
Lemmy reminds me of very early Reddit, which is unrecognizable in its current state. After years of stupid decisions, the overwhelming barrage of adds, trackers and corperate greed, the reddit I found so engaging and entertaining was lost years ago. My exit was just an acknowledgement of that truth.

Edit: thanks for the gold kind stranger!
Feel basically the same way you feel except that curiosity has gotten the better of me more than once.
Feels like Lemmy should be seeing more growth?
IMO there's certainly nothing wrong with going on reddit. There's still stuff there but it's just not the same and it's not for me. They don't respect their users at all and I'm just not going to give them anymore of my time.
I haven't been here all that long butI think Lemmy is growing and real growth takes years. It seemed like reddit was this little secret for the first few years, then BOOM! Massive growth and it was a slow decline after that. Lemmy is on the upswing and with any luck, this place won't fall into the same pitfalls ar reddit.
There was a glitch with my instance this morning — Lemmy.ml. Haven’t used what happened but these enterprises are not a piece of cake to keep going.
I think that sentiment is the same why people ask why there aren't more Linux user's. Some people just don't bother.
They wrote it wrong: A Home for New Mods

Same diff on reddit
At least here in lemmy we won't found turtle mod for now.....
PAIN is just REDDIT leaving the body! <ksh!> <kshow!>
