So it seems like this community will one of the ones where all the other shit_____say communities get merged into. In preparation for that and the incoming rise in traffic, we should have a few more mods here to make sure things run smoothly and keep reactionaries out (ironic). Anyone interested? Comment below. Looking specifically for users with reasonably active accounts and a reasonably long history of posting Marxist/ML content, either on Lemmygrad or on another instance.

Edit: nevermind, plans changed. Apply to ShitReactionariesSay instead.

      Yes, that is what it’s looking like. I originally was planning on merging everything into SLS and just renaming it Shit Reactionaries Say, but most people (admin team + community) wanted to make a new community, so I made !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

      Ideally SLS would be archived (just put it as mod only submissions) and I can name @AgreeableLandscape@lemmygrad.ml as mod of the new community and they can take it up like they did SLS.

        SRS seems utterly deserted, so if the old ones aren’t removed/merged people will just post as previous.

        Also i don’t know if marking it as NSFW is a good move, is hiding it default option? I can’t remember, but if yes, it would sink under notice and before you know, SLS would be recreated every week.

          I created it just a few days ago in preparation for the merger ; SLS would be the only one that gets to be “archived” (turned to mod only posting) because there’s so many posts on it. The other ones had barely any activity.

          I also turned on NSFW because some people wanted those posts to be hidden by default as they don’t want their feed to be taken up by infuriating stuff liberals say. It could either be per post or by default for the community, ideally that would be taken up by the final mods. I’m just the placeholder mod for now until someone takes it off my hands lol

          SLS would be recreated every week

          People likely will recreate communities, but we can also delete them as we see them pop up. I put a notice on the sidebar (from the main page) which should reduce new communities of this type anyway.

            People do not wanting to see it would have just one (or two) community to block, i don’t think it’s that inconvenient to warrant preemptive block.

            Also shitfascistsay is pretty much alive, so that one would be good to maybe archive too. Rest are pretty barren.
