On a semi-related note, anyone found a good MC Lemmy community?
That subreddit is, and has been for some time, an utterly atrocious place. It’s filled with low-effort posts and junk memes and interesting discussion is impossible. It’s barely moderated. The median age is 10.
As a 13-year MC player who is totally obsessed with the game, I literally unsubbed from /r/minecraft some time ago and didn’t miss it.
Here’s hoping we get some critical mass on Lemmy or Kbin to build a MC community for an actual MC community. It’s badly needed.
There already are some minecraft communities:
I completely lost faith in that subreddit since this happened. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2MbnYO2Xyw
Reddit just keep giving me countless reasons to not use their service.
Their stance is “we don’t care what the users think - you WILL use our website and you WILL view our ads so that we WILL make money off you”.
So my response is: no, I won’t.
With relaxed moderation going forward. I hope it becomes the next /worldnews
There is !Minecraft@kbin.social atleast.
I’m not surprised at the actions of the Reddit admins anymore. I hope they protect while being “open” like pics or gifs have.
The only ones I’m aware of are !minecraft@lemmy.ml , or !minecraft@lemmy.world
The vote was promised to be respected and ended 70% in favor of going private… How does reddit expect to have any credibility left after this. Is there a point, there lies get so bad there actual illegal?
Reddit doesn’t care. All they want to see are dollar signs. Which ironically, they will be seeing even harder negative dollar signs after all this.
Reddit admins are on their own platform, they get to make the rules and change them at any time. Sucks but thats how it works. Its up to the people who still have a Reddit account to edit their comment history, delete it all, and then delete their account.
They need to stop using Reddit, or get in line with the rest of the morons that complained about the blackout.
However, I do believe Steve’s public commenting and repeating of provably false accusations against the main developer of Apollo are definitely illegal and if there ever was a defamation case with that evidence, there would be no trial, as it would be won before the judge sat down to discuss discovery. Unfortunately, a legal battle is likely too expensive for the Apollo developer.
- is their any point from where…
They own the site, in the eyes of the law, they can do whatever the hell they want
From a user on that post “it seems the majority of us want the subreddit open”
I’ve seen a lot of extreme aggressive shilling and astroturfing. But now we’re getting into straight gaslighting.
