  • I still have 200+ days on my plan, but cancelled it for now. Not because of any major concerns, it’s good enough for what I need it for.

    But they just making the app worse. There used to be like a map where you could select servers, they removed it. You used to have a “pause” and a “disconnect” next to each other. Now the “disconnect” is the last option behind the “pause” menu. Why?

    I hate enshittification and that’s just that.

    Will probably switch to mullvad after it expires.









  • I know quite a few proper arachnologists from other communities, but none of them uses lemmy. Reddit’s r/spider community is really one of the only things I miss about that platform. It was a great community. We were like 10 people that did identifications and regularly pm’d and tagged each other in posts, because we even knew each others specific areas of expertise …

    It’s no fun being the only “authority” on a subject, because I do get shit wrong sometimes and there is no one to challenge it, really.




  • It’s certainly not required since everybody can just create a community and be a moderator if they want to.

    But I think at least with some smaller niche communities, people that have a special interest in them will tend to run them.

    At least in my case I think I do have a special understanding of the topic I’m moderating, though I certainly don’t have a degree. Feel free to test me on it, though!
