Furthermore we want to make Lemmy better and that includes learning from reddit - what should be the same, what should be changed and what should be added/removed/be like reddit "used to be" etc. It's a software project not a summer flirt.

Yes this is also shown to be the case in scientific studies. Something something reinforcing memories by activating several parts of the brain at once. Yes I'm too lazy to actually find one and link it but I've come across it several times

That's not irony, that's just hypocrisy

Isn't Twitter kind of thriving though, or did I miss some recent news while touching grass?

Is there a (feasible) way to crowdsource/democratize modding? E.g. having mandated regular elections in place for mods, alternatively for the rules? The latter being better maybe. If rules are voted/agreed on and then either the admins or some external, neutral ,(non community/"subreddit"-level) instance jury/court could handle complaints where the users feel that a mod has not acted appropriately/implemented the rules decided on

Based.

But on a serious note I was getting really sick of reddit (especially the default/large subs) even before this debacle with third party apps. But I am not sure how much it's me that have changed and how much it's actually reddit having changed. I guess it's a bit/a lot of both.

I mean if someone thinks posting on PCM constitutes being far right then there is a problem. I hope Lemmy can be just.. not political. Not political either to the left or right. I don't want every thread to be drowned in pronoun discussions, "orange man bad" or accusations about racism for the smallest thing. Just like I don't want every post boiling down to vaccine conspiracies or learning more about how worthless Biden/Pelosi etc are or about gun rights.
