I'd like some feedback on this community's moderation. Do you feel it's too relaxed? Too strict? Feel free to voice your thoughts in a comment below!

I've tried to be very "hands-off" and mostly let the community decide what's acceptable by voting. I don't usually remove content unless either I receive several reports or if it's a clear violation of the rules/code of conduct. I don't know if this is the best path to take though.

I have no complaints. I think a light touch is the right way to go with moderation. Thanks for all you do!

[-] cygnus@lemmy.ca 22 points 7 months ago

If I don't notice the moderation or wish for more of it, then it's good moderation.

[-] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 2 points 7 months ago

Yeah, my sentiment too.

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 18 points 7 months ago

I have felt no impact. I've not noticed a preponderance of spammers, shitposters, or trolls, nor have I noticed trigger happy mods. I'd say you're right in the Goldilocks zone.

for the most part i dont see any problem with the posts on this community whatsoever. most of them are funny, a fraction of them are reposts but that happens in every community anyway and it isnt really a problem unless its done to death/generic "repost this image" posts

[-] XEAL@lemm.ee 11 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

No issues that I've noticed as a lurker.

In any case: fuck censorship.

[-] tourist@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

I haven't really noticed many toxic users in this community that would warrant extra hours in the moderator box

Might change depending on how much bigger the community grows

The moderation here is excellent, keep it up!

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

They probably use Arch.

Keep it up. Anyone that gets uppity needs to be reminded that it's a meme sub and they should hold their outrage for something important, like the barbarians that put pineapple on a pizza.

I'm happy with the moderation here.

A Lemmy.world admin removed one of my posts from here recently. They said it was nsfw, which I disagreed with.

I'm so tired of seeing Linux all over Lemmy. It's like why can't I sign on to Lemmy and it be like Facebook? Why can't I argue with my second cousin's first roommate about politics rather than the greatest fuckin OS created? These memes attack me personally!

Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
