Not who you are replying to, but anyway. I generally find this place a lot better than reddit. Everything you point out is valid, RE: core problem. Moderating is volunteer work, and by nature mods have authority. The real crux as you point out is the lack of ability to appeal a ban. That and lack of ban standardization even amongst mods. Paying mods wouldn’t help really. You can’t ask mods to attend a so you want to be a moderator: a training program for those still in denial about their agoraphobia program.

Because instances admins can ultimately take their ball and go home like you mention. It’s a tricky situation.

So it begins

My mind dragging my ass to the gym

What else do you call a female Bichon?

This guy gets it

@fossilesque@mander.xyz if you yank my meme, I’m going to give you a lump of coal.

It’s a shitpost, but there’s enough nerdery to fit here

it’s pronounced kneesh, but I’m willing to overlook it for the sake of a meme. You may ask, ‘will you die on that hill?’ and I’ll reply “some will”.

Thanks for the info. In not thrilled with proton mail but moved because it was supposedly better. I won’t be sticking around

Is that why I don’t remember much of my life?

We all do what we must for mother Russia. No go back to sleep and let Gorbachev have his way with you. Close your eyes and think of England

I thought your UN looked familiar.

I left for the same reasons. Their native app is shit. They got bought out and took private. I have a dental problem with authority - back me into a corner by taking away my choices and you get brick.

I used to reddit a lot in 2011-2013 but set it down then just lurked periodically. I found out where everyone else was going and here I am. A bit of a learning curve to get set up but now I’m happy and this place feels like reddit (but friendlier) before it started sucking

I love the commitment to typos that improve comments

Ever think that the dryer doesn’t actually steal your socks, but rather generates new ones from lint as offerings to its master?

LAWL. Outstanding

The amount of bullshit in permaculture is tremendous. It’s why I often get in online knife-fights with permies. They do a lot of ‘their own research’. Since they’re doing their own research, they’re liable to get roped into pseudoscience claims. I once saw someone trying to sell salt water as a soil amendment. Don’t get me started on electroculture.

Turd turd turd turd is the word

Fun fact, the original word for bear has been lost because people refused to mention them directly - like Voldemort
