Pointing this out also but I fail to see how "speaking for the 19k" is an issue if anything when reddit actually had a subreddit dedicated to requesting dead subreddits and or ones that modteams couldn't physically get back onto the sub, and it was and is insanely successful with the admins allowing a shit ton of them per day to be swapped around and in a lot of cases people were blatantly more happy to swap them around.
I swear Lemmy is so weird about this imo, people told me making a LGBTQ community was a bad idea because "I could just go to another community in another instance that was the highest rated" and now everyone is saying
"Oh it's just two clicks, go to another instance!!!111 or create another one1111!!!!!! U shouldn't be on Lemmy if you don't want communities to randomly close down"
It's the exact same shit awkwardtheturtle pulled where they modded hundreds of subreddits and universally just made completely batshit insane reasons because "they felt like it"
The difference is, Snoo is arguing that no it's pretty insane to universally make the decision people have to move when they shouldn't have to move in the first place
Yeah, sure, it takes the click of a button but what next, exactly? If a mod later down the line acts out (which as a reminder you can't dethrone mods on Lemmy yet, it has to be the site admins.) the users are just supposed to again go and "welp time to go create my own version of Android, and then someone else is going to create his own version of Android, and then another community."
That doesn't make much sense lol, you people can't both use the argument "oh if you don't like it create your own" then when people do, bitch about people creating their own and "just go to the biggest one in another instance!"
then say with android "Go to the new one it's two clicks!!!!111" it's hypocritical and fucking stupid.

This'll be the last time I talk about this until an admin responds personally. No point in arguing the same point repeatedly.
Not trying to argue any points but one of the good parts of running on lemdro.id is the Android community has a close connection with the admin(s) (me!). So it would be trivial to remove a mod if it came to it vs having to coordinate with already busy lemmy.world admins. My personal goal when starting lemdro.id was to help spread out the load so that federation can continue to flourish as Lemmy grows. As well as being a more focused instance to cater to the needs of technical communities.
