Hello all,

This community will be removed from the instance in the near future because it is unmoderated, does not align with the instance's focus, and frequently introduces political content into the local feed, which is contrary to the instance's goal of minimizing political content.

Alternative versions of aboringdystopia are available on other instances:

!aboringdystopia@lemmy.world

!aboringdystopia@lemmy.ml

!aboringdystopia@lemm.ee

I would prefer locking the community to avoid losing visibility of the posts, but unfortunately locking a community is not an available feature.

EDIT: As Trying2KnowMyself pointed out below, it is possible to restrict the community to moderator posts. So, I have done that instead to preserve older content.

It’s possible it doesn’t meet your needs since I don’t think it prevents comments on old posts, but you can restrict comms to mod posts only. Probably need to mod yourself first?

If you also lock all the posts, it’d be effectively locked., though that’d take many more clicks (or a script) than just locking down posts.

Oooh, you are right! I actually did not know I had that toggle available. Thank you 😅

Strange, I can't make my own user a mod, so I had to create a new account for this

A Boring Dystopia

The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.
