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.

    I think once we can clarify the legal standard we (as admins) and our hosting is going to be held to, we’ll be able to. There’s a general concern that if we aren’t absurdly proactive and protective then one of us might end up in jail for this instance, and no one wants that.

    But we also don’t really have any money for lawyers, too, so like, it’s hard to figure this out.

    In my estimation, assuming communities have competent and responsive and rule abiding moderators, I don’t see why these communities can’t exist.
