Hello everyone. I apologize for the rollercoaster ride in this community over the past week and a half. I have one more change to announce: @THE_MASTERMIND@lemmy.today has been removed as the community moderator. This is in response to multiple private complaints from community members, as well as behaviors inside and outside this community that were brought to the admin team’s attention.

I made the mistake of shortcutting the usual lemmy.world processes when I appointed the user as the new mod. If anyone would like to volunteer to become the new community moderator, you can email info@mastodon.world and make a request. The lemmy.world community team will follow their process from there.

Again, I apologize for all the rapid changes.

Thank you very much for your prompt and transparent action!

At this point, is there any chance of restoring the lost poll and poll discussion threads in some form?

Though I can understand the poster's reasons for wanting the threads erased, it would be a shame if they were lost entirely into the digital aether. The threads contained some useful discussion from community members which could help shape the future direction of this community.

If anyone would like to volunteer to become the new community moderator, you can email info@mastodon.world and make a request.

I could tentatively volunteer, though I am already stretched a bit thin with other communities, and would not have as much time to devote to this community as the previous mod. Should I still apply?

Might I also nominate @Blaze@reddthat.com, @silas@programming.dev, and @brickfrog@lemmy.dbzer0.com? All are fairly active lemmings who contributed to thoughtful discussion in the aforementioned threads. Perhaps we could serve as interim moderators until someone better is found.

At this point I think I'll leave those posts deleted. OP changed the post titles before deleting, then subsequently deleted their account and all comments, so the discussions in those posts are full of holes.
