I did a similar post on Slops community, asking for feedback regarding how specifically their comm is moderated, I did not ask for their overall sentiments of Hexbear at large. “Slop” is not a clear demographic though.
This comm is different though, as the demographic is clearer. From your perspective as people who are more covid/health aware, what are your concerns with not only how this comm is moderated, but the site in general?
I completely get the pick and choose your battles line. I’ve had to pull back from a lot of the Palestine discussion for the very same reason. As to why you come back, this is part of my point - where else are you going to go? There really aren’t any leftist discussion spaces online at this point, and those of them that are still out there, are even worse than this place when it comes to covid. So why not try to work with what we’ve got, however shitty it might be, in an effort to improve our community?
You’re lucky you have people left to interact with at this point.
I didn’t mean to leave you on read, but I’m just not sure I have an answer at the moment. idk, I kinda question whether or not agitating in a place like this (outside of this comm) is productive or if time would be better spent focusing on what I can do irl. I mentioned Jon Stewart earlier and similarly I often wonder if a shitposting site like this is like the empty calories of praxis.
