  • Yeah. Looks good. Thanks Otter!

    One thing to think about is that recently we had a few requests to create a rule about quality sources. I was always torn about it. The post with links to bad sources/bad science brought out some of the highest engagement from the whole community and spurred some great educational dialogs.

    I don’t like the idea of keeping a disallowed list of sources. Nor do I like the idea of debating source quality.

    Eh. If you look over the mod log for the months before the incident, it makes sense why they just started banning anyone with negative interactions. People were just dropping in to harass them.

    Also, some social media spaces are closed for most - i.e. you can only read and not comment unless you’ve been approved…

    Fair. I don’t really care either way, but do feel like mods of communities like that have a hard job. I wouldn’t sign up to do it.
