RESPONSE FROM THE 196 MODS

lemmy.blahaj.zone /post/20976989

For the people that unfollowed or blocked 196, the mods have made a post there

Edit: o right and also in the .world comm, I forgot about that X3 https://lemmy.world/post/24479792

Edit 2: 196 IS NOW (partly for now due to federation issues) UNLOCKED https://lemmy.world/post/24481114 but of course under the same moderators even tho many people r insisting that they shouldnt be trusted after all that happened, I'd personally keep using this alternative comm for now

That post cracked me up, with their no real apology or accountability but practically begging the community to come back to them, and talk of "fracturing" the fediverse lmfao, clearly made after and because they realised hardly anyone was following them to their new home, and not just because of what instance it's on, but because they showed their asses as mods, and people don't want to deal with their bullshit lol
- It's funny bc I see their mouths moving, but it's spez's words that come out!?

seems like theyre going to have another "internal vote" to see what theyll do with 196 now, but not right now cuz most of them arent online atm
so I guess we'll sillypost here in the meantime until they have another response :P
- I do hope the og 196 opens up again. If not at least we will have this. Thanks for opening this btw OP 👍
  The stupidest part was that they said lemmy.dbzer0.com and lemm.ee would have been good choices too. Ok? why didn't you choose those? why fucking .world of all places???

so this is how i learn that someone thought it was a brilliant idea to let moderators set an alias for their communities
i thought these two communities were the same for several minutes, being extremely confused as to how it had different moderators depending on the tab i was looking at..
