Love how they bellyache about the mods not doing a good enough job when they spent the final weeks of the June protest harassing the existing mods and and basically dismissing and disrespecting all the work we were doing for the past decade. They just expected things to go back to business as usual and the mods should just shut up and continue doing unpaid janitorial duties for the benefit of spez out of sheer momentum I guess? The scale of their entitlement is unreal.

Yeah, that was part of the reason I decided to leave. I mean, it wasn’t the only reason by far, but just another item to snowball into the “fuck this platform” that pushed me to leave.

The number of people that actively told me I was dumb, abusing power, and my moderating could be done by anyone was crazy.

Then they bitched about the moderation quality going down when 50% of the moderation actions walked out the door.

The r/piracy wiki died when I stopped updating it which is a shame, I used to recommend it to everyone. Now I pass them onto FMHY or awesome.

We do have our own piracy wiki here BTW!

Never heard of FMHY or awesome before, what are they? Could you point me there too? Thanks!

These are the most comprehensive lists of resources I've ever seen, thank you!

[-] Johanno@feddit.de 50 points 9 months ago

How could you?! As a Karen I demand the r/piracy manager and that he forces you to go back and work for free!

[-] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 73 points 9 months ago

Oh, I wasn’t a mod of r/piracy, I modded r/noahgettheboat.

But yeah, the users feeling entitled to both have a sub that was taken care of, and to shit on the mods, was quite perplexing.

Hah oh shit. I'm a reddit refugee, seeing you feels like seeing like a local celebrity. Thanks for modding that sub, I was there a lot

New Reddit, in a nutshell. I really liked that sub back when things were good.

[-] cloud_punk@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

I loved that sub

I got banned this week from r/aboringdystopia for "spreading misinformation" by sharing a france24 link (credible established newspaper) debunking thegrayzone (whatever that is).

Here is the url I was trying to share.

"Clean it up janny!" Good on you for getting out

[-] Corgana@startrek.website 51 points 9 months ago

I always laughed when someone called us a "janitor" after we banned them. Like you understand in this analogy you are the trash being taken out, right?
