Yes, I agree. Not only would the proposed community be full of baseless claims etc. But also it may deter potential mods.

No problem :) . Thank YOU for posting. This can cause an interesting discussion.

Not really sure what this will achieve in the long run. Sure, some mods will up their game after being shamed… but would this not just encourage toxic behaviour? People may start shaming mods just because they may slightly disagree with them as opposed to because they are bad mods. Instead of a few bad eggs, we may end up with a chaotic community of people blasting and publicly shaming anyone with differing opinions. Is this the best way to go about this? Obviously I may be exaggerating slightly, but this is just to get across a point to consider. I know you have touched on this issue already, but another thing to consider is the potential bias of mods of this community as well. This is an interesting idea and I would also like to hear other people’s opinions on the matter.

Thanks.

May I ask which extension you are using?

WTF

I don’t know, personally I’ve never liked the idea behind that app. It seems like a massive privacy risk. I know if it is open source there is less of a risk, but I still don’t like the idea of people being encouraged to constantly post themselves and their surroundings.

Makes it even better that I’m on mobile so the text wrapped half way through a word.

Thought it was a pregnancy test at first glance.

As many others have said, it’s only natural for the trends to plateau. After a sudden surge of users, due to the Reddit controversy, some of the less “devoted” (can’t think of the best word) are bound to leave in search of a more user-friendly experience or a community with more active users. I too, also wish that some of the more niche communities had more active users, however I also understand that these things take time and A LOT more users. For that reason and for the sake of a freer internet, I reckon I’m in for the long haul. I’m also trying to contribute as much as I can with the limited time I have. I think people need to understand that because we aren’t the product/customer anymore, we need to help to contribute content and help the build new communities.
