Mind?! Thanks for being active. I was busy with work the last few days but now I can try being active as well.
what do you think we're doing with the daily discussion threads XD
I wanna help post too. Where do you guys normal check for news? Twitter? 🤢
Unfortunately, yes.
I am having issues posting content daily either on the website or the mobile app. Been trying to keep us at up-to-date as the subreddit but I think its a technical issue with posting.
Think you've fixed it. Saw your latest one.
Let's hope the mods over there decide to push this place and then go dark indefinitely
@Invincible_World @Mijn_Bergkamp yeah, especially given the admins might be forcing subs to go public and ejecting existing mods: https://famichiki.jp/@Tsutsuku/110537730270070245
Went to see what was going on over there, there's a load of people in the daily thread completely missing the point of the protest.
Hopefully just a loud minority
Yeah 'I use the official app, it's fine for me, what's the problem' just shows the mods really needed to put up an explanation before going dark.
I think they did put up an explanation and unfortunately most people are too lazy to read or didn't even bother because "it doesn't concern them I use the official app" eventhough if they read it, they'll understand what this takes away.
They didn't put it on the notice when they closed it down unfortunately
Unfortunately, I think what the mods of /r/soccer and /r/gunners learnt today is that their users don't give a shit about them (ie. mods and third party creators) or any greater cause. They just want their subs back.
These people don't even realise in their race for karma whoring they are free content generators for reddit who in turn do nothing to improve the experience (just push more ads and propaganda).
The amount of people in /r/soccer and /r/gunners who want to abuse people who support the blackout is too damn high
Thanks for making an effort in spreading this community on r/Gunners (at least I assume it's you based on the username). Not received that well it seems. It appears that our old home is filled with uninformed and narrow-minded people that frankly it's better to avoid.
That comment about Lemmy looking like social media from 2008 like that's a bad thing says it all really.
The irony is that these people do not realise Reddit looks the same without all the third party tools like RES.
I honestly think Lemmy is a little buggy and the backend mod tools are lacking, but the basic UI argument is so ridiculous considering they're on Reddit.
Agreed. The only way you can pull the UI argument is if you're using a 3P app today which these users clearly aren't. Argue about the lack of content or whatever, but complaining about the UI is so ironic haha.
Your post bringing awareness to Lemmy was awesome. The abuse is ridiculous, accusing you of trying to grab power for yourself. People will always be resistant to change. I honestly hate being bombarded by ads. The official app is like an ad every two posts.
Yea, I really didn't expect to be accused of a power grab. Literally the first thing I did after creating this community was contact the /r/gunners mods and offer to hand it over to them no strings attached without me even staying involved.
I don't know if you have ever been a mod before but you're doing a great job. I appreciate all the posts you make while the community grows, it makes it feel more active. I feel like most of the early adopters to Lemmy are going to be lurkers and less willing to make posts.
Cheers, mate! Appreciate the positive words.
100% agree, but there are 315k supporters on r/gunners. We don't need everyone to support or agree, but for a lot of reddit users might want a new home that already serves the exact same purpose. The tough part is going to be moderating and dealing on a new platform.
honestly hope they join in the indefinite blackout, given Reddit's response. I've left "indefinitely" though so I haven't looked myself.
So, do we think Rice gets done today or do we have millions of tweets saying it's basically done but no one announces it until these stupid internationals are over?
I'm hoping it's official before the weekend but that's because I'm just impatient. Curious to know what is going on with out other CM signing.
Doubt it. England are playing Malta on Friday, so are probably travelling there today. I'm guessing it gets done sometime next week.
We really gotta make a bot for this at some point
I am gonna be working over the next few weeks on helping out with the source code to fix some DB bugs. Hopefully will be able to start making bots and the like soon.
I'll try to get one going this week and pitch it to the mods to see if they like it!
Is there a way to sticky posts on lemmy? Also props to you for remembering to do this daily
Yes! A mod can open the post and it is in the overflow menu to pin it to the community.
Done.
Thank you!
Window officially opens today, big statement if we got rice through the door on day 1
Bellingham to Real Madrid
They'll announce Rice when the pictures are done I'm guessing
first !!!1111!!1
Partey is being linked with two Italian clubs, take whatever offer you can Arsenal, get him the fuck out of our club.

Ignoring the off the field stuff, I also think it's the right time to cash in on him. He can't play twice a week and is one of those players that needs a few games to get going. If I had to pick one of him or Jorginho to play as back up, I pick Jorginho. A more consistent less injury prone player. Jorginho peak isn't as high as Partey but I think Partey is capable of more stinkers. Helps that Jorginho is a decent human being as well.
