mods? theres only one, lets let ada organize an effort to find new mods instead, i feel like she will handle it with grace and elegance.
I thought there were more when I created the meme.
That can work too, but maybe we don't want to ask her to deal with this?
no the community was made very hastily by somebody and they havent been available to do much with it so not much has been done really.
I was just thinking to continue the discussions started in https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/20973851
I will say that I don't think every member of the old team should be forced to resign. Effective moderation takes active engagement, and as someone who did end up as sole mod of a decently active comm for a bit, I was always anxious about it all being on me. I'm thankful that I was finally able to get help after resolving technical difficulties, as now I have room to breathe. A community this big needs as many consistent mods available as possible, because if they aren't able to handle it, the responsibility falls on Ada. I do not want that for the community or for her.
I think the current mods should instead be forced to accept the way this instance is moderated, end of discussion, or quit. No more floating the idea of migration for the reasons they had. After totally bungling this, they have no chance to ever move peacefully or amicably like they wish they could. They accept this home, or find a new one for themselves. End of discussion.
At the very least, they need several new blahaj.zone moderators, to both handle the reports Ada mentioned, and to build back trust. I hope potential mods of the new comm can join, and I hope members of the old team chose to stay for good. I don't enjoy bad blood, and I would like this place to actually have a enough moderation.

Sounds good as well!
I have no idea what’s happening but if I know Lemmy then the community is overreacting.
Out of the loop. Wut happened?
The mods of 196 announced that they've spent months planning to move 196 to .world, effective immediately, citing differences in opinion over how moderation is handled on blahaj as an instance.
You can't migrate communities from one instance to another, so they created a 196 on .world (and I think locked this one at some point? I'm unclear on that), and the community is split over the action and somebody has created a new 196 here on blahaj called onehundredninetysix. You'll probably find that your feed is filled with posts from there, as it's very active right now.
Thanks 🙏🏻
