Ignoring the fact volunteers cant unionize. These retards can barley afford their own expenses. How the fuck are they going to pay for a lawyer?
r/piracy's Lemmy fork summarizes the whole topic for me.The r/Piracy sub did a brigaded poll and are now only allowing pirate photos of John Oliver, or whatever. It's even more cringey than the other ones. The r/melbourne Australia sub is only allowing posts about Melbourne, Florida - which is at least an actual joke?
Both of these are dumb for different reasons - Piracy isn't ad-friendly so just doubling down would probably be more effective. And any local sub is too small to do anything but annoy users. Ironically the soft protest where they don't mod as much would improve the site.
Spez is a moron and the mods managed to lose the PR battle to him. I think the "landed gentry" line struck a nerve, and he knew it would set them off and make them emotional.
So he's disappointed that the jannies bent the knee because they were predictably too addicted to the feeling of pushing a broom around and censoring opposing viewpoints.
Just ban everyone that would vote against you :^)The most glorious thing about making mods face elections would be that every time they thought about banning someone, they'd have to think "Can I afford another vote against me?"
tbh, Louis is a Redditor and he mentioned a couple of times that he got high views and his right to repair activism got attention is because of Reddit. So in a sense, he does have a thing for Reddit. I wish he'd do to Reddit what he did to GrapheneOS, but I guess that's a bit too optimistic.So he's disappointed that the jannies bent the knee because they were predictably too addicted to the feeling of pushing a broom around and censoring opposing viewpoints.
I hope he's learned exactly why we have a reddit thread in a lolcow board here, and that he stops holding redditors in such high regard.
Actually, he says in the video that he drew a line in the sand and is strictly no longer using Reddit. Good on him.tbh, Louis is a Redditor and he mentioned a couple of times that he got high views and his right to repair activism got attention is because of Reddit.

He needs to understand that for the most part these jannies are a strain of the same disease that's getting him doorbell unpersoned, as reported by Josh last week.So he's disappointed that the jannies bent the knee because they were predictably too addicted to the feeling of pushing a broom around and censoring opposing viewpoints.

This stunt actually hurts reddit since they cant run ads on porn.I just checked in. As expected it's all porn now.
wanted to post this guy's reply as copypasta, i thought it was pretty good:Mod Gatekeeping:

Ok time to break out the crayons. Running a massive sub is not only a shit ton of work, it requires some Knowledge on bots (or at least someone on the team better have that), thick skin to not take shit personally, judgment, and commitment. Yeah you could get some volunteers, but the vast majority of them will have no clue what they are signing up for, unless they have done the job. They will either stumble or will not offer the time needed. Subs have gone as far as having minimum number of tasks completed to make sure that people were doing their share. Bottom line is, yes there are people out there that could do it, but there are more people who will take the spot and immediately see they are overmatched.
Let's say for hypothetical numbers, 10 largest subs have their mods shitcanned and replaced. I am willing to bet that more than half of those subs have major issues going forward.
This guy has kind of annoyed me in the past but he got it 100% right on this one. Also great reviewbrah meme at the end. And nice kitties.What pisses me off about the failed Reddit protest...
Churchill get back in the fucking grave.Just ban everyone that would vote against you :^)
In the latest one? Cause in the one before that he was still using it albeit it in a jewish "I'm not actually saying God" sorta way.Actually, he says in the video that he drew a line in the sand and is strictly no longer using Reddit. Good on him.
It really is all about that crumb of power that a reddit janny feels. Thats all it ever will be. They can't do it anywhere else in life so that's what they freak out about. It happen's on discord and it happens everywhere else that this mindset is at. You notice it doens't happen too much outside of law enforcement or the military.r/piracy's Lemmy fork summarizes the whole topic for me.
>be mods of r/piracy
>Reddit blackout happens & you participate
>migrate over to Mastodon
>don't bother to edit the megathread, copy it over wholesale
>it continues to link to a subreddit that is private & nobody may read it so it's useless
>people complain & ask if it may be edited
>rather than tell people to put cache: in front of the URL or change the links to rentry you just start banning people
>this takes longer than posting some very basic advice but bans make you feel important
>once your purge-sperg is through traffic is down 90% & dropping
Spez is slime but he is aware that he is tard-wrangling lesser slime who don't qualify as human outside of legal context. Reddit moderators will never win because there is no lower form of life on the planet.
Yes, in the "What pisses me off about the failed Reddit protest" video.In the latest one? Cause in the one before that he was still using it albeit it in a jewish "I'm not actually saying God" sorta way.
Sorry, I didn't watch it, 'cause all of his other reddit videos about this were, at best, very naive. Did he also stop accepting copy+pasted Reddit submissions (post copied word for word from Reddit), or is he actually taking a genuine stand?Yes, in the "What pisses me off about the failed Reddit protest" video.
