[Meta] The elephant in the room
(sh.itjust.works)
Community dedicated to the world of Harry Potter.
Mostly focused on books and fan creations, movie content is accepted but should not overwhelm the community.
A pinned post is a possible option. Would a pinned post accomplish anything that a paragraph in the sidebar would not? I've had federation issues with pinned posts unpinning themselves on remote instances, whereas sidebars seem to federate more consistently.
A pinned post making the official stance clear similar to the reddit one should definitely exist imo – no matter what else is decided.
Still shocking that they unpinned it on Reddit, during Pride Month on top of that. Classic modern Reddit move I guess.
Pinning from a post written by a local account from a local mod account usually works.
Based on experience, pinned posts are much more visible than sidebars (those are usually hidden on mobile)
