@aleksana:mozilla.orgaleksana šŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC)Has anyone seen this post? https://www.reddit.com/r/NixOS/comments/1ch8vhv/eelco_steps_down/ I feel like this is the source of some people's repeated concern trolling on Discourse. Some people seem to be very active in steering others in their direction and creating echo chambers.08:29:44
@drupol:matrix.orgPolReddit is blocked at home, the pi-hole is doing a marvellous job :D08:30:51
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil aleksana Yeah it's very unfortunate.. 08:49:01
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil We do effectively have the keys to reddit.com/r/nix, maybe we should try to establish that more 08:50:06
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Will probably get downvoted to oblivion by users of the other subreddit though, but it would give a place for people to discuss without so much negativity (assuming we can find somebody to actively mod reddit) 08:51:28

@julienmalka:matrix.orgJulien Unsure of that last statement 08:52:54
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Yeah.. 08:53:07
@julienmalka:matrix.orgJulien Moderation team is already overworked drasticallyĀ  08:53:19

It has 24k members, do we have 24k members on discourse or anywhere else?

I feel like this is the source of some people's repeated concern trolling on Discourse. Some people seem to be very active in steering others in their direction and creating echo chambers.
But in the end, the problem about this is the people within our community who are loudly protecting these behaviors from moderation action
08:54:37
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil I'd actually like to help out with moderation 08:54:42
@julienmalka:matrix.orgJulien That being said, it would be a shame if people that received a *temporary* bad of the community participatedĀ in these echo chambers on reddit that ultimately had visible effects on community places of discussion… 08:55:11
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Not on reddit, but discourse, to lighten the load on everybody 08:55:15
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.org Banning a dozen concern trolls is easy. Putting up with the endless cries for "accountability" and having to defend every small action for months is the actual resource drain 08:55:41

@claesatwork:matrix.orgClaesSince I mentioned accountability in the recent thread: do you think my comment was a "cry for accountability"? Is accountability not important in a new governance structure?09:02:12
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgYes, accountability is important, and I very much agree that there are accountability issues with the way the moderation team operates. However, there are a bunch of people who are abusing that to stifle any moderation action under the name of "accountability". (See RFC175 as a stellar example of that)09:05:26
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgThe last good-faith discussion on this topic I've seen was months ago with Infinisil's proposal09:06:13
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Hold on this is turning into another moderation thread. It's not on-topic here 09:06:19
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgCreeping up from all sides :)09:06:38
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Let's just calm down for now? 09:06:39
@piegames:matrix.org@piegames:matrix.orgBut you're right, I'll head myself out09:06:47
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil Claes I'm not on the moderation team, but could you just contact me privately about your worried? I'd like to hear you out, but I don't think this is the place to discuss it 09:09:08
