Hello all,

First, I would like to thanks SwingingKoala for creating this community!

As you may have noticed, this community is not active since last month and the principal moderator is gone. Also, as you certainly already noted, another similar community exists and is much more active.

I have been set as the backup mod by SwingingKoala in case this precise situation arise, so I have to take a decision about this community and would like your opinion:

  • Should we put this sub in read only (if possible) and go all to the most active one?
  • Maybe someone else want to take over? I'm not committed enough to do that myself.

Have a nice sober day, y'all 👋

It makes you feel like you've been some how had, and all your youth's been taken

So glad this place is on the fediverse! Looking forward to seeing more members and posts. I used to be somewhat active in this community on that other site that we all left that rhymes with deadit.

Anyways, I drank heavily for 5-6 years, constantly blacking out and being a really shitty partner and friend. Finally decided my usage was not normal and that I had a problem so committed to sobriety.

My current streak is around 10 months because after ~1.5y sober, I thought I was cured and started “moderating” last summer. That lasted a couple months before I was back to the old ways. We all know how that goes. I don’t really count my days because it doesn’t help me at this point but in the beginning it was really awesome seeing 3, 7, 14, 30, and 90 days being strung together of choosing me and my health every single one of those days!
