I am not and never was a reddit mod for ncd. I never even had a verified reddit account. I’m happy to add the reddit mods as mods here if they want(pending community approval).
Honestly I don’t even really want to mod I just wanted an active ncd community to read some shit posts without using reddit.
I’ve tried reaching out to the ncd mods over Lemmy and never got a reply so I’ve just assumed they gave up on moving to Lemmy.
Edit: My bad I guess they did talk to me a month ago I think. I just had no idea who they were. Screenshots for full transparency…
Most recent attempt to reach out…
Usually we generate 1 or 2 reports a week. The previous two weeks we generated several an hour pretty consistently so it was stressful since it mostly involved me having to look and remove NSFW material while at work or really dumb things.
We seem to be back to not generating any reports again :) the last few days thanks everyone!
Ideally at most it’s like 30 minutes a day outside of the scat incident making me constantly look to remove it and trying to shut stuff down to stop getting reports spammed.
You guys have been really good at not getting in flame wars! I really hate removing content at most if it looks like it might happen I try to post “be nice” once or more in the thread and it resolves itself.
I have not had to ban any users and only removed like 3 comments/posts this whole time outside of the scat incidents. I still have some PTSD from that.
Thanks everyone for being nice and not making being a mod worse than it needs to be!
I still don’t like the responsibility. I was going to try to have you guys pick some additional mods this weekend so I could step back and play around with making another community for an unrelated interest.
I guess we will wait on what happens with the reddit mods… I want community input before we make them mods here if we go that direction. I don’t really have the highest opinion for how they handled the api change stuff to cling onto power…
I also don’t like how the r/NCD mods went back to SFW when Reddit threatened to remove them as mods and replace them. The NSFW-status-justifying open letter to Reddit admin with spicy links of NSFW should have been their hill to die on. It was a brilliant chess move and it should have been a “nail our colors to the [free speech] mast” moment. Then the mods backed down from it. That’s why I don’t want to invite them to mod here. They can’t be trusted to stand up for their own freedom of conscience, even when they had nothing to lose. They won’t stand up for anything else. Shit, you’re doing a good job, don’t get burned out. Take care of your mental health.
I agree. I’m just have a bunch of health issues that recently started happening making all of this harder to keep an eye on.
Well you know, they really didn’t have a choice. Better just to guide users over to an alternate platform like here instead while laying low.
Glad to hear things are manageable. I suspect that everyone on Lemmy kinda feels a sense of ownership on the site and it makes us a bit more responsible I guess. Regardless, I hope it remains manageable in the future. Thanks again for doing this, and please let us know how we can be doing our part to make it easier on you.
Yeah honestly everyone should keep on doing whatever they are doing it works for me. I’ve just had some health issues/scares that lined up with the api changes.
