so the official reply is that mod got bored, and also was asked to re-open. which is, of course, fine.

and to be clear

  • i didn't think there is any conspiracy, that would be ridiculous,
  • if we subscribe to the idea that a community is owned, not stewarded, by mods, it's perfectly fine to do with the community whatever the mods want, without the need of them being accountable to anyone else,
  • i do think that reopening the sub after closing it in protest is mostly sad,
  • and a very small and rather insignificant footnote to a more general discussion on (f)utility of using master's tools to bring down the master's house.

nah, i'm not going back where i'm clearly not wanted; the mods can take care of this themselves.

bonus: some *chan-pilled gobshite thinks this branch is not cool enough (cw: ableism)

It has no reach. Sorry. I myself go there every few weeks to check last threads, but becoming insular autistic circlejrk circlejerking over other autist made it intellectualy impotent, sorry.

it was always a risk; questioning someone's integrity, be it directly or indirectly, is rarely welcomed.

needless to say, i'm even less inclined to resume any activity on reddit.

not only the thread is closed, i was banned for asking that question:

so what you're saying is that people shouldn't be their whole selves in your presence because it makes you uncomfortable.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

replying to your questions/points in order of appearance: yes; go to hell; get in the sea.

tbh it looks like that whole lemmy instance is pure lolbertarian trash.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

all their points about cville are pure post hoc speculation trash; this is way too close to the “but but violence is bad!”; laughing at the fash is good; beating up the fash while laughing is even better.

yet another programmer who imagines that having computer science baccalaureate gives him an insight into human biology. sigh.

 

from the “i'll drm your arse” and “industrial sabotage r us” department, a true scandal: a polish train manufacturer used firmware to lock out trains at 3rd party service depots in order to disrupt the operations of the trains for the railways who did not choose to service the trains at the manufacturer's; at the same time they blamed the 3rd parties for their inability to properly service the trains.

further reading in polish (but translates via google well): more technical and less technical, but with more political/economical details.
