From what I can gather from what little they want to share it’s very clear to me that they wanted to move to world to attract a larger audience and also so certain transphobic users could participate again. They also repeatedly claim that the community is the moderators rather than the users, which just makes it clear how out of touch they are.
Edit: Also, it’s super obvious the reason they don’t want to give over the old community is so people are “forced” to move to their new world community. They only care about number go up.
Anyway, people are really enjoying the new 196 community. By which I mean the [email protected] community that is growing by leaps and bounds every hour. In the last 3-4 hours there have been 80 posts, 900 users, 360 subscribers… by comparison, in [email protected] I see just 4 posts, one of which is the new set of regulations threatening people to be banned even before they read any existing posts (bc it’s pinned above them I mean).
Literally telling on herself that she’s inactive for weeks to months at a time. But yeah, definitely Ada’s fault for trying to actually moderate the largest comm on the instance. I think both sides here are at fault though, as I’ve seen (and been disappointed by) the way Ada moderates the matrix space she runs.
Tbf, Moss is only one mod among many (I count 10 in the sidebar) - the more damning portion is how it seems NONE of the mods were checking the modlog reports and resolving them.
Also, I don’t know the history of the [email protected] community but from what some comments said, at some point the community moved to lemmy.blahaj.zone and then had no mods, thus belonging entirely to Ada as the “owner”? And Ada,.as she said, has just been doing her thing since before 196 existed even on Reddit. It’s not her fault for simply living her authentic life - and rather sounds like the fault of whoever wanted to move the community from lemmy.world to Blåhaj (before abandoning it entirely into Ada’s hands to clean up the mess left behind).
This entire situation seems so fucked up from every side. The mods have responsibilities to both the admin as well as the users of the community. They ignored major parts to both of those, tried to move, failed, and now continue to step ever deeper into it with the more they reveal about their “internal voting” and such the worse that the community feels about it all.
It’s good to have choices though: if the new mods want to create a different space on Lemmy.World, that’s awesome? But they absolutely screwed up the communication about that.:-P
Yeah but the new one here by Moss has an oldest comment of 1 day ago, I guess they made that before the announcement 14 hours ago. So it seems to have replaced the old one.
But yeah you get me: it’s not a “real” post about “rules” - except it is, but it is not a “really real” post about “Rules”, you feel me? :-P

Well, technically they aren’t wrong.

There is really no comparison here.

To be fair that post was in the old 196 as well. It’s a rules explanation thingy.
