Absolutely, but these problems are common to all the instances. Maybe I interpreted it wrong, it sounded like they were directly engaging the bad actors over management of the platform, and doing that rather than just quietly banning them and moving on.

And to be clear I’m all for open collaboration and taking feedback, but I’ve seen this occur for Lemmy apps where loud and overbearing voices try and dominate the conversation to the benefit of noone, until Devs either stop responding or shut things down.

Regardless, it’s sad to lose an instance and I hope the admins find something rewarding to invest in without having to deal with the internet’s worst members.

Or has it gone not too far enough!?

there are also some who use the platform to attack others, stir up conflict, or actively try to undermine the project. Admins are volunteers who deal with the latter group on a constant basis, this takes a mental toll.

While I respect their decision I feel like these people will just move on to other instances to do the same thing.

I don’t know all the details but it smells a bit “tolerant of the intolerant” and that these people should have been shown the door before it got to the point of shutting down (other reasons aside - they’re all valid)

Nothing can hold me back. Because I am stuck in place by the electricity coursing through my body.

Uh, no it isn’t…

This taught me absolutely nothing about B2B sales!

When you outsource the thinking, you outsource the learning.

Stealing this because it manages to put technical concerns into hand-waving manager speak.

And a pretty solid article. I think leaning on micro-enhancements to performance a little to hard at the end but the rest jibes with my experiences working in a large company where non-technical bloviators are leading the charge of changing the landscape of a field they don’t understand and have no training in.

“We’re bringing AI to OKRs!” they say hungrily, as their weak arms attempt to pull the rug.

“Sure you are”, I say, pretending to stumble.

It’s all of the above. It’s always been a useful folk devil when one was needed.

Introducing people to the alternate controller layout was like unlocking part of their brain they didn’t know was there.

You are correct. People make mistakes, not everything is “a narrative”.
