What you're witnessing in real time is why "just creating your own subreddit" rarely worked. You can't compete with an overwhelming existing userbase being told to go to their alternative that they control, it doesn't matter what was first or better either.
Honestly I wouldn't mind making them mods here if the community approves. They just ignored me everytime I've tried...
Annoying. But you are a king in our eyes tho
This is a democratic republic with juche characteristics!
Exactly. I made some marketing comments for this community. Hate power tripping people/mods.
Yeah I would rather delete the community than bend the knee (pending community approval)...
Ya. I ain't leaving. It's called shitjustworks. Our mod is called Shit. It's kismet. Don't go against fate!
Are the Reddit mods also mods in the Lemmy instance, If yes that might be the reason. Also feddit.de defederated not long ago for a while from Sh.itjustworks because of Moderation Problems.
Two of the reddit NCD mods are mods on the lemmy.world instance. None seem to be mods here. I guess that's why they're promoting that instance over this bigger (for now) one.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I tried to reach out to them over Lemmy two times in the last month and never heard back. I don't really have a problem making them mods if the community here wants.
So the question is if we want the ncd reddit mods be also in charge here in Lemmy
I say make your own decision. No one can tell you where to go or what to join.
2 of them are already mods at Lemmy.world
Ah. Drama, my old friend.
Why can there only be one? Just sub to both.
Or all three. I can't get enough of the cold greasy gas station pizza that is NCD. There is one on kbin.social, one on lemmyworld and one here, my favorite. I migrate, grazing on dumpster sushi seasonally....
Burn the heretic!
HERE WE ARE BORN TO BE KINGS WE'RE THE PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE
It looks like @NonCredibleDefense@lemmy.world is a mod of this community. I will stay subscribed to both, doesn't mean anything to me.
Weren't the Reddit mods recently complaining that the Lemmy.world instance was run by communist or something?
You're probably thinking of Lemmy.ml
More like Lemmygrad, that place is a shithole
Lemmygrad and lemmy.ml have previously been the same exact IP address.
Ahh thanks for the info!
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !noncredibledefense@lemmy.world
Meh, op I don't think you have anything to worry about.
NonCredibleDefense
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
