The "sacking" of the current moderator volunteers that I've seen in some news articles this morning leads me to the next step, which is if a moderator can be tossed, that's a chilling effect for the next moderator and then, all the people who remain subscribed to that subreddit. I don't know if that will actually happen this way, it will at least be a fascinating exploration to see how this all unfolds. Someone on Mastodon mentioned that Reddit makes no content of their own, it's all volunteers, the public, and their 3rd-party toolset. That they are burning all of it and maintaining that everything will be fine in the end. Smells a lot like bravado and big-talk.

I too searched for mlem, but it's beta/testflight so as a worthwhile compromise, I opened this up in my mobile safari and saved it as a shortcut to my app pages in iOS. It's really just the website in mobile safari, but it's good enough for me at the moment, until Apollo gets possibly re-written for Fediverse/ActivityPub traffic.
For me, the only thing I can come up with that sounds right is “Kick It” :)
Spotted this from way over on mastodon.social! I knew the moment I spotted it, that I had to get on-board. Got the account, yaaay! Next up, Patreon.
So many first seasons of any of the shows feels a lot like the writers are starting with blank paper and having a huge brainstorming exercise episode after episode. I always give a "hall-pass" to any first season on any of the ST shows. Even if the episode is junk, it often times leads to great "what-if" conversations afterwards. I absolutely detested the first season of Discovery, but after that, I did a 180 and quite enjoy it. Strange New Worlds is the outlier for all of this, that show is a billion bars of gold pressed latinum, but that's just for me.
