Kia ora!
What’s the plans for moderation on this instance? I guess there’s probably going to be a bit of a flood from the NZ-oriented subreddits and this seems like a smart landing place for them.
Lemmy.ml apparently has owners with weird political beliefs, and this is putting a bunch of people off. Is there going to be a set of rules/CoC for this instance?
Also, servers cost money. Any plans for adding a way for users to support the server?
Thanks for setting it up!
The last thing we need is experienced reddit moderators. Those megalomaniacs ruined the place. We’re all adults.
Plenty of kids on reddit will be looking for a home as well. They need protecting, both from and against others. :)
I think we’re all going to survive without your protection, friend. Hard to imagine, I know.
uh oh, don’t say that, you’ll only bring the mob upon yourself.
Kiwis are so strange once they hit the internet.
I think kiwis are strange in general. We live in a shame based culture, similar to Japan. Top priority is to be seen doing the “right thing”. Wrong think is unacceptable, even in your own private thoughts. No wonder why Reddit became the new TradeMe Forum, people love the downvote feature, because it promotes shame and silence. Other countries have more inquisitive and open-minded citizens.
You’re right. And there’s some weird streak, in general, about wanting to be supervised, wanting to be told what to do.
This happens when the spirit of a nation is crushed. For example, the same thing happened under communism.
