A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Agree. You were faced with a horrible choice and the only way to make it would be done in solidarity with all the other mods. BUT. If the intent was to truly make an impact to the wider user base, maybe walking away and starting over would have been a potential way to demonstrate not only to the admins but also to the users that you were unwilling to take any more BS. Just like other users who are walking from the platform. It may take a while but once everything sucks, users will eventually come searching for a new, not sucky home. If you have one available they will find it.
