  • You’re good. I wasn’t meaning to put you on blast. To be honest, it’s still surprising to me how much activity on Lemmy isn’t bot accounts, but people just trying to share content they found and enjoyed or at least thought was relevant. I became jaded from Reddit where there seemed to be automated posting that just blanketed 15-20 subreddits based on tags or some classification.








  • I saw another instance where they listed the server cost requirements per month, and it’d be nice to see current and expected costs considering the user jump. I’d like to donate, but I don’t want it to be trying to piss out a fire. If the costs are 200$ a month, I’d want to donate appropriately compared to costs of $5000 a month. An income/expense statement would be nice. I know there are a lot of fires, but I feel like many of the people leaving Reddit left because of greed and (lack of) transparency. Having a transparent list of (projected) costs will garner trust, and help secure this server as more “legitimate”.


  • To be clear, I don’t mean to argue for or against it; I’m sorry if it came across that way. I mostly wanted to quickly summarize CNC. There is a way for it to be successfully moderated, but it will require a dedicated/knowledgeable mod (team) to keep it in check. It can very quickly become a way for bad actors to find a home.
