MOD NOTE: BE NICE.
It’s ok to disagree, it’s not ok to insult or threaten other posters with violence.
I mean, trump was crazy to suggest injecting bleach, but maybe eating it on a side salad helps with covid?
(please don’t try this)
removed as the same link was posted before!
you can’t use power delete anymore. sort your own posts by top (all time), and manually change the useful ones.
if COVID has demonstrated anything, it’s that nurses need to be paid more!
what are those things?
The only thing I did was use adblock to disable the red speech symbol for chat lol. Never even used it!
It’s sad that they have to strike because they fear for their lives at their jobs.
This is why we need to raise awareness of strike. Help them amplify their voices and generate the negative publicity that the studios are desperately trying to avoid!
Good for them, standing up for what’s right!
Hi! I used to participate on /r/antiwork (and then /r/workreform after the Doreen incident), but never modded those subs. The only moderation experience I have on reddit was a few years ago, and I stepped down after the sub got past >25k subs because I just wasn’t interested in dealing with reports. I have no intention of becoming a “top mod” or whatever here, and I’m not that interested in admin/mod drama and shenanigans. Lemmy is a new start for many of us old-timey Redditors, and I created this community because I couldn’t find one that gels with my philosophy on work, and I believe it’s something that affects enough of us that we should talk about it.
If you believe in the stated goals of workreform (addressing wage inequality and capitalism, as opposed to abolishing labor altogether), you’re welcome to participate here. You’ll be judged based on your behavior on lemmy and lemmy alone.
Also the modlog is open for everyone to see on lemmy - click on “modlog” at the bottom of the sidebar, near all the subscriber/active user statistics. Spoiler: I haven’t banned anyone yet, and all i’ve done is remove one spam post (well, I removed it, accidentally restored it because I didn’t know what I was doing, and then removed it again) :)

Here’s the full interview - you can see the Fox news host get nicer and nicer as he realises that this is going to be a slam dunk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yUMIFYBMnc
Also, we don’t necessarily need a big userbase. Just a good active one. More is not necessarily better in my opinion.
Unfortunately, the main benefit of having a large userbase is that you can always find a community for any obscure interest you have! That’s not really the case with lemmy now.
anything to avoid paying you a living wage.
you can try selecting “don’t recommend this channel” on some of the more radical ones!
because reddit was a firehose of low-effort posts. A lot of times if you don’t reply quick enough your post gets buried under 100 other witty puns and nobody ever reads it.
damn, there are more top mods than i thought! I remember stumbling on one “powermod” but it turns out they aren’t even on this list.
That’s a fair point, but antiwork as a brand is effectively a laughing stock now. Anybody who wants to discredit the movement now and in future will simply point to the Fox News interview. If the conspiracy theories were true, the false flag operation worked.
My original point still stands - the antiwork sub is a mix of people with different goals. That’s not sustainable. fuckcars as a movement is more homogenous, so it works.
businesses: “we had to raise our prices because of supply and demand, it’s just natural economics”
also businesses: “why can’t we get good workers at this shitty wage, we’ve tried everything!”
Interesting… I switched away from Samsung and actually hated stock Android!
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not perfect, but the issues I had with Samsung were solvable (e.g. uninstalling bloat is a one-time thing) while the annoyances I’ve had with a Pixel aren’t solvable (quick settings, no third camera).
