A few highlights:

  • As usual, u/ModCodeofConduct messages outright distort the moderators’ position, as if it was unwillingness to moderate.
  • r/firefox opened up again. It’s now about literal fire foxes aka red pandas. Mods worry that the sub might [ipsis digitis] “fall into the hands of someone who would undo the good work we have done or would even foster an anti-Mozilla community here.”
  • “ModCodeofConduct also argued that switching to private in protest is a violation of the Moderator Code of Conduct.” - isn’t it funny how users are expected to believe that the moderator code of conduct is more than just convenient excuses for Reddit Inc.?
  • roughly 2k/8k of the subreddits joining the protest are still private. Even if Reddit Inc. plants to replace the mods with sycophants, the later will likely beeline towards the larger communities. I expect the smaller ones to go unmoderated, overall reducing the platform’s diversity of communities.

    i wish apollo added this functionality. i see it a lot in discussions and it leads me to believe its one of the most (if not the most) popular third party client.

      There’s an Apollo clone in the works, called Wefwef for Lemmy. Its browser version seems to work decently enough, but I’m doing it from a desktop so your mileage may vary.

      It is not the official Apollo though. Frankly in Selig’s shoes I’d do the same and say “screw all this shit - I’ve been lied, lied about, treated like shit, and I got to repay 250k to my former subscribers.”
