The Fedihosting Foundation is looking for a new site-admin for Lemmy.World, to help our busy team. This moderator will help with reviewing and acting on reports, weighing in on user content and helping foster our local communities while acting as a friendly neighbor to other fediverse instances.
Pl...
admin position, aka they probably have access to a lot more private info and are likely to be able to take the site down if they were malicious. But of course, treating it as corpo shit rather than establishing community trust over a long period of time seems... a bit silly
Even reddit understood this in its early years. They were gung ho about being pro-community and had some genuinely good staff back then who consistently communicated openly with that community. They had an open source development community and all sorts of shit. This was all built on contribution and trust. If they wanted someone, they didn't do applications they reached out to people personally that they already knew would be good for the roles.
They are trying to mimick reddit today rather than reddit during its early life when it was doing all the right things you needed to do with the early adopter audience.
If you search up "Zinkstraat 24, 4823AD Breda" its dozens of companies listing lots of different 4+ digit unit numbers at that address. So definitely just a mailbox for their legal registration
What's the app called? I had a search around and couldn't find it and I want to reverse it for entertainment purposes. Or do you just mean how they seem to be the default instance for a bunch of apps?
minimum 5-10 hrs a week of unpaid labor with a wide breadth of required/wanted skills including: interpreting legal documents, technical skills such as SQL for their data harvesting, web design, etc.
For the least inspiring/community oriented site on the fediverse
It will only attract feds and power trippers, and maybe not even the power trippers
Guys they’ve actually changed the process to be much simpler. To apply you need to DM me with your credit card number, expiration date, and the numbers on the back. And your name and address (important, do not forget!)
What the fuck is this shit xDDD. This is literally applying for an unpaid job, I'm definitely doing some vandalizing to this nonsense. These doofuses clearly think themselves too highly and „serious business” for what they really are.
Normal people: "hey people I'm in a gc with, do any of you want mod privileges?"
Lemmy world: "what is your blood type, horoscope, last 12 years of work experience and your favourite niche porn category plus can you add a reference from your current and previous boss? This is just standard information that all federated platform Content Gardners™ need to provide"
This kind of application for a volunteer position is always the dumbest shit. Volunteers should always be drawn from the community as people who just want to help.
If I have to do more fucking work just to apply for this unpaid shit than my last job interview, then the only reason I'd do it is to get power I'd exploit. I'll eat my hat if they actually get a nice and effective admin from this dumbdumb process.
Imagine the type of person who would willingly hand their personal information over to some random people on a Reddit clone, and then imagine them as admins.
Man, I wish lemmy was never introduced to these rdditors crying about their discontinued third party app. Could have just left them to wander aimlessly for a few days before they invariably go back to reddit.
Its insanity to ask for that for a Lemmy INSTANCE! It is not even a foundation that does anything! CV, Legal Name, and an interview for an UNPAID MODERATOR POSITION! Even reddit does better for their "best of the best" moderators by at least actually giving them a paycheck. This is a joke and not a future of the fediverse
Also, consider this a if you go against the team for any reason, they can literally doxx you. Them being the "reddit" doesn't make that fact any better.
Truly incredible-to-behold levels of Caesar complex, they really do think they’re the next Reddit. Next step is to rent an office in the middle of nowhere that’s been abandoned for the past 40 years and is on the verge of collapse and ordering nameplates from VistaPrint to further their delusions of grandeur.
