I’m very conflicted about this. On one hand, it’s kind of bullshit to take this level of action on something that can be handled on a case-by-case basis, when the need arises.
On the other hand, I’d prefer to see Lemmy avoid the reputation that Mastodon has garnered with the activities that are vastly under moderated there. With the size that some instances are reaching obviously there needs to be a level of discretion towards the content you will allow.
It’s, however, a slippery slope from protecting the community to accepting bribes for exclusive access to your user base.
“Due to moral objections, we’ve decided to block this meme community. However here’s an alternative that will show you advertisements disguised as funny memes! They even have most of the same content as the old one! Enjoy!”
Don’t let that become reality.
It’ll hit equilibrium eventually. Not like this is something unusual for a platform that’s making the rounds as the new and exciting thing.
I’ve had material taken down after years of sitting there with thousands of downloads. On the other hand, I have material that has been there just about as long with similar download counts, and it hasn’t been touched. It all depends on if it gets flagged or not.
I’ll concur. This is one of the few games I’ve actually paid for, and it was worth every penny, even during beta. Probably going to be my go to for the winter.
It’s also a naturally busy time for living organisms in the northern hemisphere. I’ve just got things going on, man.
