They’re clearly using shaming tactics. By calling it a “tantrum” they try to make those mods look childish. In reality the mods demanded something to make their jobs easier, the company refused, so they parted ways.
Hello, I’m meep_launcher, and I’m a recovering moderator.
Not only did my tools get taken, after the mass exedus, my mod queue exploded. There were so many more racist reports than before, and I was mod of a political satire subreddit.
Turns out the exedus took all the left leaning redditors leaving behind real pieces of work.
Glad I made the switch, and I set up anarchycartography here, so maybe I can get back to doing what I love, shitposting maps.
I’ve just been uploading to imgur and then posting the direct link. Lemm.ee won’t allow direct image uploads, so we kinda need to Jerry rig it for the time being. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like Trainguyrom wrote, you’re probably the first user on your instance trying to access it. Try the link again. It’s the proper way to link to communities using Lemmy. Your link doesn’t give people on other instances the easy option to subscribe to the community.
EDIT: Interestingly enough it looks like someone went through the first page of my profile and downvoted each comment of mine. Hmmm, how very strange ;P

I’ll try the link, and if it works, it works. If it doesn’t, I move on. It’s not my job to try to make it work, it’s supposed to “just work”.

I’m aware, I was just trying to give a pointer to the forum (assuming the link doesn’t work for others as well), so people can manually subscribe if they wanted to, as a community service.
Yes, same on the explosion to mod queue. I modded a sub for a traditionally male-dominated hobby but we had a really positive environment (mostly) for the few women members and any who happened to pop their heads in with a newbie question.
That turned quick, and women were being flooded with “well if you don’t like it, you don’t belong here”, “you should carry a gun at all times to protect yourself or just stay home” victim blaming type stuff. One of many reasons I peaced out, as did so many of the long-time members (men and women) who no longer saw the community they had built.

Not “job”, they are “volunteering contribution”, that are not only time consuming, mentally consuming, and unpaid as well.

You know what? Okay! I’m in.
Dude the name alone sounds awesome

After Reddit, Xitter, and Duolingo, I start to feel like hosting our work on a proprietary and profit-driven service is not a great idea.
Agreed, what’s a good alternative I can advertise on my community?
Finally, the rail system U.S. deserves, old, loud, slow, never on time, and is under maintenance EVERY! F**KING! WEEKEND!
Let us know when it is setup. I would appreciate some shitty map in my day.
Looks like its here: !cartographyanarchy@lemm.ee
Took some poking before it fully showed up for me so I’m guessing I’m the first person on my instance to try to view that community.
Tried clicking on that link, got this error…
I’m assuming you were trying to link to here?

That is how Lemmy works. Not my fault if you didn’t know that.
Psh, nice shameless plug for your community bro
…to which I’ll subscribe as soon as I can
