Why are you still on Reddit after a month?
Old habits die hard. I spent 9 years on Reddit.
Yea. It was hard deleting my account 356k karma hit the frontage 5x in 6 years
Hi! I used to participate on /r/antiwork (and then /r/workreform after the Doreen incident), but never modded those subs. The only moderation experience I have on reddit was a few years ago, and I stepped down after the sub got past >25k subs because I just wasn’t interested in dealing with reports. I have no intention of becoming a “top mod” or whatever here, and I’m not that interested in admin/mod drama and shenanigans. Lemmy is a new start for many of us old-timey Redditors, and I created this community because I couldn’t find one that gels with my philosophy on work, and I believe it’s something that affects enough of us that we should talk about it.
If you believe in the stated goals of workreform (addressing wage inequality and capitalism, as opposed to abolishing labor altogether), you’re welcome to participate here. You'll be judged based on your behavior on lemmy and lemmy alone.
Also the modlog is open for everyone to see on lemmy - click on "modlog" at the bottom of the sidebar, near all the subscriber/active user statistics. Spoiler: I haven't banned anyone yet, and all i've done is remove one spam post (well, I removed it, accidentally restored it because I didn't know what I was doing, and then removed it again) :)
Hello. Thanks for replying. I'm happy to be here and I appreciate what you've done. I'm a diehard believer in the mission and philosophy. I was always more of a lurker on the sub than a contributor, but the message resonates strongly with me, and it was an important part of my daily feed.
I'm still finding my way around this platform, and learning the new jargon and culture, but I can see this replacing any need for Reddit. I'm definitely rooting for the platform and your community.
And I got banned because some tool mod in AITA got upset when I made a username all_aita_mods_are_incels.
Sounds like a power trip response to an aggressive choice in username. You probably both deserved it.
I mean you're not wrong...my original response that got a 3 day suspension was definitely bullshit but I did pour gas in the fire.
Welcome to the fediverse!

Work Reform
9856 readers
884 users here now
A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
