This guy is literally messaging people after he gets downvoted because he doesn’t like the word “Bro”.
“Bro” was literally used as an expression of disbelief.

You’re receiving this message because I consider the word “bro” to be offensive, and I noticed you downvoted my request that a commenter avoid using it.
I want to politely ask that you not encourage language or behaviour that could bring toxicity into [email protected] .
This is a friendly warning. If it happens again, I will have to issue a ban.


What’s the point? Just block him and the 3 communities he mods and move on.
Fdeiversenews seems like a perfectly good community. He doesn’t seem like he has the temperment to mod, well, anything.
Someone already made a new one [email protected]
[email protected] is already established and active, seems easier than to restart a community from scratch
Yep. I don’t want to flood the !fediverse with news. But I feel like the community themselves can make the community great or not. Mods should have a light hand unless absolutely nessessary.
[email protected] isn’t really that active
If you look at [email protected] you see that it wasn’t that active either, the main poster was @[email protected] who stopped posting there after a previous power trip from the same mod.
[email protected] also has flairs that @[email protected] spend time settinp up, including a “News/Update” one that people can filter out on Piefed if they wish to
Maybe I was thinking of one if the Lemmy ones? I remember one community is getting slammed with news articles and drowning out any real discussion. But hey I’ll keep this up and see if people use it.

Having too many communities gives posters and subscribers https://lawsofux.com/choice-overload/ , and it dilutes the already small activity. Most of the Fediverse discussions happen on [email protected] anyway.
If you want to join as a mod on [email protected], @[email protected] might appreciate the help
@[email protected]
I do appreciate the help since it is not easy to find interesting content and animate this community. I’m lacking good source to achieve that. 😔
The moderation process is written in its sidebar. I prefer reaching people and ask them to edit their post or comment.
