    I definitely have no skin in the game here, but wow just skimming some of the discussion topics, it sounds like a small group of people want to monopolize a fairly easy to vocalize domain for a very specific purpose of power-modding it rather than any sincere attempt at being an all-encompassing community.

    Kind of like how some people are moderators / owners for some 30-40 communities on popular instances and flooding some of them with submissions as if all they do for a day job is to do that under the guise of “sharing content” while giving little to no room for anything to stick long enough to garner discussion (I don’t know about the next person, but the “content” is the discussion, not the shared link).

    These people are not leaders nor are they effective community managers. Rather they want to monopolize the community to serve a particular motive, and are leveraging the fact they’ve become “landed gentry” to shape a community that fits their wishes, rather than one spun together by the engagement of its members.

    Think it’s funny that the lemmynsfw instance is having its own internal mutiny. tl;dr - ex-admin reported the server to their host prompting a server migrate

      Leaving these here for archival as my account got banned.

      below is the post which got me banned.

      Well actually it was a post I made replying to the admin’s post telling them they clearly don’t care about legality if they’re willing to host pornography in a country where pornography is illegal. But I didn’t get a chance to screencap that one.

      and here’s their “reason” for banning me:

        I don’t understand the admin’s last sentence:

        We try to do everything legally, but we need to avoid risks whenever possible

        Isn’t it less risky if it’s legal? There’s no need to hide and fear repercussions from authorities? Them moving to Ukraine where any pornography is illegal is contradicting this statement lol. Perhaps they think that the Ukraine government has bigger things to tend to (well uh the war) and the provider would be willing to accept any money they can get right now?

        I just saw that! I think this is the last push I needed to leave that place for good. I had my suspicions for a while, thought maybe there was something worth salvaging, but this is insane.

          Yup! I think i’ll like it a lot better here. Glad something good came out of the time I wasted on that place.

      They clearly don’t have any idea what they are doing, their old host is Hetzner which strictly bans pornography, and their new host is in Ukraine, a country where pornography is illegal.

      Also do they have evidence the ex admin reported it or are they just wanting more things to pin on him?
