Comment on Plebbit Will Never Deliver, Apologies for the Hype, Lemmy's Where I’m Staying

The creator of a community is rarely the right person make decisions long term. Moderation should be based on trust and merit, not first come first served because moving everyone to a new community is hard.
We had similar problems here on Lemmy when most of the popular communities were on Lemmy.ml and subject to their moderation.
But maybe it’s fine. It’s probably an improvement on Reddit, and maybe an improvement on Lemmy if it actually encourages more diversity in community ownership. I’ll certainly check it out!

I disagree, I think Reddit ruined their own subreddits. If you’re a community owner, you know your community best and know how to moderate it. They’re the most invested in it after all.

Maybe in the short term, but longer term, I don’t think your vision of what the community wants to be will necessarily match what the community wants to be. I guess we’ll see how it turns out, and ib sincerely hope I’m wrong because I want an improvement on Reddit and Lemmy.
