If the 196 mods had used the migration feature, thé output would have been the same: other would have created [email protected] and most of the people would have moved there
Absolutely. That example shows how mods do not always act with full concern for the community members, and much turmoil and drama ensued as a result of that mismatched set of expectations between the “rulers” and the ruled, consent by the governed and all of that.
Maybe there is a friendlier way - like the mods move and a notice offered to those still visiting the old, without necessarily blocking the old… which as I say this I realize can’t happen, bc an unmoderated community would instantly become a source of literal spam sent out to the entire Threadiverse, as sadly happened to Kbin.social.
