Hello, community!
After reading about all the things that Reddit has done to alienate their userbase (hostility towards moderators that put thousands of hours of volunteer work into their site, blatantly claiming their userbase’s content as theirs, not respecting the choice of their userbase when it comes to content deletion, etc.), I’m currently planning to start a larger offensive on r/fossdroid to create more attention for Lemmy.
In order to moderate and promote this community, as well as this instance, I just appointed Astral Moira (@ostrich, u/ubertr0_n on Reddit) as moderator and 2nd instance administrator.
I always noticed on Reddit that Astral Moira has very broad knowledge about FOSS and is very passionate about it, so I think, they’re a good fit!
✌️
Thanks so much for this opportunity to serve! I’ll try my best!
I love data privacy, FOSS, and Lemmy!
I also love ostriches. They are so cute!
What do I hate? Meta, the company. And Google. And Steve Huffman. Alexis Ohanian potentially. And Amazon. And cockroaches. And surveillance capitalism!
Let’s make this lovely instance rock!
congrats! \o/

Congratulations!! You’ve always been one of the best posters among us. I enjoy your ardent pro-free software stance in the face of hopelessness. I can’t think of anyone better to help run this community and instance.
Also, I think Microsoft and Apple deserve mention alongside Google, but comparing them to cockroaches is an insult to cockroaches (and I HATE cockroaches too!).

Hey, thanks! Freedomware all the way! You’re also an inspiration to me. ❤️
Dear roaches, I’m sorry for comparing Crapple and Micro$oft to y’all. You lot are better creatures than those filthy corporations.
But really, why do cockroaches have to be so gross? They look gross, smell gross, and very likely taste super gross. Eww!
They’re probably crunchy, though.
Eating a goddamn cockroach. The stuff of nightmares.
I remember reading somewhere that there was a contest in which the person that ate the most **living roaches in the least time won. It. Really. Did. Happen. What the almighty fack.
crunch
I don’t even know what to write.
I wish I could unsee that image.
Gute Nacht. Good night. おやすみなさい。
