I really hope that both (...) won't mind me starting another one.

So, it is OK for you to do that but not for others, yes?

Perhaps it is the issue of control? Locking inconvenient subjects, like you just have done in this "your new community"?

This isn’t really the same thing.

Locking inconvenient subjects

And unlocked

I'm the only mod and I have to go, based on the history, I wanted to avoid coming back to a thread full of drama like the ones I linked in that post.

I'm going to find mods in the coming days. I'll also reopen that thread when I'm back.

So, it is OK for you to do that but not for others, yes?

Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform? On top of that, I'm not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Sadly.

By "drama" you mean subject inconvenient to yourself?

Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform?

Your point is?

I'm not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Are you a mod to "ask Lemmy"? No? This is why you created alternative community to it?

I'm not a mod on

And a lot of other communities where I regularly post

Do you see me creating communities alternative to those?

It's kind of ironic, because I can just use all the arguments people threw at me recently about !buyeuropean@feddit.uk and !buyfromeu@feddit.org

  • it's fine to have several communities on the same topic
  • if you don't like it, you can just ignore it
  • the mod team decided to keep it open, so it's their right

One rule for you and different for the other people, eh?

Coming back to

Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform?

Also, feel free to comment under each of my posts to promote !asklemmy@lemmy.world or !asklemmy@lemmy.ml , I wouldn't mind.

And definitely not ban people over it.
