Agreed. Please DM me if you’re willing to help organize this, we could very much use the help.

The difference between this site and my day job is at least my day job pays me while it hurts me.

This more than anything.

Me. That’s why I woke up after 8 months. Somebody had to fucking do it.

It’s very hard to build things for people who hate you.

there’s been some new incredibly internal drama that no one who isn’t horribly, horribly online could ever follow.

It’s been fucking baffling to log on some mornings and see some of the shit. Who the fuck cares? Just post memes and entertaining things to make hell world suck less wtf.

Don’t waste time you could be spending returning to having a real life running this site.

Literally the head space most of us have. Quarantine projects we all learned a lot from. We haven’t decided anything yet for sure. Gauging current willingness and energy to continue. We all have a lot of other shit to do that is less exhausting and honestly more rewarding.

there is no assumption of good faith at all here

There’s a good amount and the community does a solid job.

There are multiple private discords with the sole focus of destroying this site and that is an entire level of fucking loser I never expected to see continue this long after launch.

I mean our front end is basically it’s own fork at this point, but I agree the lemmy devs are real comrades and deserve hella credit as well.

feels like we’ve reverted to the arguments you’d see in a middle school, not someplace that’s meant to be thoughtful and kind

Agreed. It was a fucking mess.

I read the rest of your comment, I just don’t have a lot bandwidth. Thanks for writing something long that wasn’t the equivalent of hatemail.
