They couldn't profit from it because of a bot. That issue is going to get more widespread and someone you know will be affected by it.

Crazy story though. Glad he got it sorted.

The Beehaw mods explicitly said that the defederation was due to lack of good mod tools combined with lack of time to moderate manually, and that they didn't really want to defederate but didn't know what else to do.

Is the police union really that powerful?

Yes.

I remember when Arnold was governor and was trying to balance the budget. He found out how much we were spending on prisons, and how many prisoners were there for nonviolent drug crimes. He publicly suggested letting specifically those people out. Within a couple of days, wall-to-wall radio ads started running... "Little Suzie was raped and murdered by a PAROLEE!!! Schwarzenegger wants to let PAROLEES JUST LIKE THAT loose in YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD!!!!". He dropped the idea.

Sorry to hear that. I enjoyed your communities.

 

I asked on the guitar reddit but I guess that's not allowed and the mods took the whole site down.
