MODERATORS
Eh, I can see that, but the whole point of the fediverse is to get away from centralization, right? I think it's a good thing they are promoting their own instance on Lemmy. Only issue is that for right now at least - all of the instances look the same...
Again what we're talking about here is mods who were radio silent about building backup communities on Lemmy since the Reddit blackout began, leaving users to figure shit out themselves on Lemmy. Reddit mods sit around and wait. After 3 weeks they see that Lemmy actually succeeded and many big communities got established. Reddit mods with their sense of entitlement then come here and say "okay peasants we appreciate what you did, now that you're already on the lemmyverse come join us here where we still have our mod powers".
It has nothing to do with decentralization. It's the disrespect that they're openly showing.
I mean... this sort of attitude you have is kind of self-defeating, no? Like let the /r/Android mods have their own community. These public spats make it confusing for end users. The fediverse doesn't have to be one big happy family - people have freedom to associate with some communities and not others. Duplication is bound to happen in the early days of this fediverse thing.
