Also, lots of discussion under the announcement post in the new comm https://lemmy.world/post/24437552.
Omg the disparity is palpable.
The post you linked:
The "we've already left" style post on blahaj:
Edit: so in asking whether the moderation will appear the same to the users, the answer is "well yes, except actually no".
On the other hand, they seem to be doing the community a service... by leaving it and going over to Lemmy.World🤪!

Only 2-3 hours old and already 36 posts (less than a minute later 43, I'll stop updating this now:-), nearly 400 users, 174 subscribers (I guess the others simply voted or commented?) - this is taking off like a rocket!
The mods forgot the basic Rule of Lemmy: fuck spez.
Those mods almost pulled a spez
I mean... okay so technically they didn't, but only technically. I think I saw where you asked the question: who owns a community? They acted like the mods did, and now having FA, they are FO that they in fact do not own it nearly to the degree that the community members themselves do.
So now the community is split, and they may find themselves having to do a lot less moderation work in the future.
I contributed a post myself to help them out.:-)
Thank you for your post!
And you as well, for your multiple ones!
I don't even plan to join the community weirdly enough, but I do want to help them grow a bit if that's what they need to be free of authoritarian influence:-).
