Any critiques, desire for clarity, outright hatred, whatever have you. I will respond the best I can.
I know there’s been some blowback on some of the policy updates but it’s been difficult to really explain fully that the restrictive content policy is temporary, this community was very unmanaged for a time and it had to be reigned in somehow and with the limited tools at disposal the temporary policy changes were made.
Here’s a comment that also explains a little bit behind the decisions made recently as well.
For community mods, we have a community mod coord matrix group chat now. Feel free to DM about it.
Also, there’s another ongoing discussion regarding SFW communities on lemmyNSFW here.
It’s all @Madness, he mods 170 communities, almost entirely celebrities.
I have absolutely no interest in celeb communities, and they’re clogging everything up. Not sure what the solution here is, as I agree with @hedidwot that just becaue I don’t like it doesn’t mean they should be removed. Perhaps being able to hide communities by tags or by mod?
I just made a post after discovering all the local communities. If you’re interested you can check this post.
I’m sure as lemmy’s grows also this instance (this instance barely one month, btw) we will have new features to take care of all of this and create users’ the best experience. The fact maybe I started early and they growing/active fast, they will appear first when you explore communities.
I hope sorting communities will be available soon. I need that too
For the record, I don’t fault you or have any ill will towards you. Apologies if that’s how it came across. Just that you created the majority of the celeb communities.
