For the record, I fully support what the remaining mod team is doing, they are a wonderful group and I trust them completely. I don’t regret the choices I made, only that my actions got a few other mods shit canned in the process.
- Archaeojones ( @Archaeojones@ttrpg.network ) 53•1 year ago
Honestly, fuck spez and the rest of the admin team.
You are a legend for what you did. They nat 1’d and instead of abiding by the roll, they flipped the table.
- djgucci ( @djgucci@ttrpg.network ) 43•1 year ago
This is my first post on here thanks to the shit Admins pulled on you. How best do you recommend continuing the protest? Simply stop using reddit altogether, or is there a malicious compliance you recommend? My usage has gone down significantly since the API changes but I haven’t been able to kick it altogether.
- eerongal ( @eerongal@ttrpg.network ) 31•1 year ago
How best do you recommend continuing the protest? Simply stop using reddit altogether, or is there a malicious compliance you recommend?
Unfortunately, that’s probably the only route, IMO
My usage has gone down significantly since the API changes but I haven’t been able to kick it altogether.
While it’s not exactly a perfect replacement for reddit yet, lemmy can help with that, i’ve found. If you click to the “all” feed you can basically get a slows/less populated version of reddit r/all. Really all it lacks at the moment is user participation, which has been climbing a lot over just the past few weeks.
- Snickers ( @Snickers@on.syrma.cc ) 17•1 year ago
Just to add, sorting All by Top Hour/6H keeps the content fresh. The default Active sorts by comments and favors 1-2 day old threads while Hot regularly resurfaces weeks old threads for some reason.

After I subscribed to a Canada sublemmy, there was a full two days where I was just constantly being bombarded with threads from literal years ago I’d see a shockingly frightening news thing, click on the thread, start reading, realize this all sounded familiar, and then realize this was like covid news
- mechanicalmind ( @mechanicalmind@ttrpg.network ) English4•1 year ago
First post on here, I have as well followed after the dndmemes mod fiasco by Reddit. Question: does Lemmy allow NSFW content? Asking… For a friend.
- eerongal ( @eerongal@ttrpg.network ) English3•1 year ago
Each community is allowed to set their own standards for the rules they have, there’s no server wide ban necessarily against NSFW, so you should check with the mods of a given community
- mechanicalmind ( @mechanicalmind@ttrpg.network ) English1•1 year ago
Great, thank you :)
- Eagle0600 ( @Eagle0600@yiffit.net ) 26•1 year ago
Stopping using Reddit is probably the only effective form of protest. If you don’t want to do that, reducing your usage at all will help. However, the best thing you can probably do is help the Fediverse grow. Your part of that means active participation, be it posts or comments. So that’s what I would encourage you to do: Post things!
- djgucci ( @djgucci@ttrpg.network ) 11•1 year ago
Define Fediverse please?
- LibertyLizard ( @LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net ) 19•1 year ago
Ttrpg.network, which you joined, is one of many websites that can all communicate together with a common web protocol. This process is called federation and all of those sites together are called the fediverse. So for example, I’m logged into slrpnk.net right now but because both of our sites (called instances) are federated, I can view and comment here, and you’d be able to do the same on any communities hosted on slrpnk.net. You may have heard of mastodon which is more of a twitter alternative but it’s also part of the fediverse, so you should be able to use your account here to view and interact with mastodon content as well if you wish.
It’s a pretty clever system and while there are hiccups here and there, for me it has been a good replacement for Reddit. We just need more users and content to really get things going.
- TheAlmaity ( @TheAlmaity@ttrpg.network ) 4•1 year ago
One explanation that really helped my grasp this I saw a while back was that this is very similar to how email works: Lots of different domains/providers/websites, but ultimately they are all connected and interact with each other.
- Alediran ( @Alediran@ttrpg.network ) 34•1 year ago
Legend. Just registered here too after the coward decision from Reddit Admins. Other than cats and NCD I’m barely active now.
- QuinceDaPence ( @QuinceDaPence@kbin.social ) 13•1 year ago
https://sh.itjust.works/c/noncredibledefense
Assuming that’s the NCD you’re talking about that seems to be its largest fediverse community.
- Rhabuko ( @Rhabuko@feddit.de ) 12•1 year ago
Just a little tip: If you use a browser (PC or mobile), you can simply write !noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works and it will automatically convert the link so that people directly can subscribe regardless on which server they are.
- QuinceDaPence ( @QuinceDaPence@kbin.social ) 4•1 year ago
How does that work when two instances can have communities/magazines with the same name?
And that still wouldn’t directly let me subscribe since it takes me to sh.itjust.works when I’m on Kbin. I’m also using the PWA but I imagine I’ll switch back to straight browser.
- Rhabuko ( @Rhabuko@feddit.de ) 3•1 year ago
How does that work when two instances can have communities/magazines with the same name?
Because the two communities are on different servers. !noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works is on the sh.itjust.works instance/server (https://sh.itjust.works/c/noncredibledefense) and !noncredibledefense@lemmy.world, as an example, would be on lemmy.world (https://lemmy.world/c/noncredibledefense). They’re both different communities/subreddits with different mods/admins.
While this can be a little confusing at first, after a while 1 or 2 similar communities will became the mainstream ones where most traffic will go while the others will be way smaller and a little more niche.
Sorry that the link doesn’t work for you. Kbin is a different platform and I have no experience with it.
- QuinceDaPence ( @QuinceDaPence@kbin.social ) 2•1 year ago
All I see for both of those is “!noncredibledefense” and yet they go to different servers.
What are you actually typing? I’m assuming the markdown is changing it.
- Quincunx_5 ( @Quincunx_5@beehaw.org ) English2•1 year ago
Each !noncredibledefense is followed by an @, then the name of the instance. The first is @ then sh.itjust.works, the second is @ then lemmy.world. All one word, similar to an email address.
- TassieTosser ( @TassieTosser@aussie.zone ) 3•1 year ago
The @ points your browser to the community on the right instance. As for the link taking you to the base instance while on kbin, it’s because kbin uses /m/ instead of /c/ as a separator like Lemmy. So for you to visit that NCD from kbin, the link would be https://kbin.social/m/noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works. Also it looks like kbin is still having problems receiving updates from lemmy and vice versa.

THAT NCD indeed. Just need HFY around and I’ll be set. Gone are the days of chasing every cat sub.
I’m not a fan of the layout here, it’s too compacted and things are not clearly defined, but I’ll make do.
- substill ( @substill@lemm.ee ) 3•1 year ago
FYI, there are a shit ton of third party apps and extensions for viewing Lemmy however you want. No idea what type of device you’re using, but for iOS I like Memmy.
- freeuse_princess ( @freeuse_princess@ttrpg.network ) 28•1 year ago
I have a spicy question for you!
…did you have a favourite NSFW meme I made?
- LibertyLizard ( @LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net ) 8•1 year ago
You made it over here! Yay! Is there anywhere we can see those now that they were deleted from r/dndmemes? Some were pretty excellent. Don’t think this community would allow those but I’m sure there is a community somewhere that would appreciate them.
- Moondog ( @moondog@ttrpg.network ) 2•1 year ago
Dalimey’s not enough of a degenerate to confess his favourite, but I am. My (other mod team member) favourite was this one.

Hello! Here’s Question.
… how did you do it? How did you transcend fear,pain death and become immortal?
Asking for a friend.
But more seriously thank you so much for what you did. You set an example.
And it wasn’t just about goblin tits ( and throbbing bugbear wang).
It was about resisting illegitimate execution of authority and the sub became a really cool sex positive space. ( possibly not the mods intent, but it happened.)
Anyway, I do have one final question.
For people who support you and the original mods and also the remaining mods…
What do you suggest we do?
Abandon that sub completely and just come here and try to make it really active or… what?
🙏❤️
- geminironin ( @geminironin@ttrpg.network ) 3•1 year ago
Seriously, the ruling that dismissed them was some egregious bullshit. I’m off reddit completely after that show of dickery.
- vinnehhhh ( @vinnehhhh@ttrpg.network ) 24•1 year ago
They really should lock that sub down, migrate to a full NSFW sub, and leave all new posts pending mod approval with a message from automod directing them to here or the new sub.
- MouseKeyboard ( @MouseKeyboard@ttrpg.network ) 17•1 year ago
At some point Reddit will just ban all the mods and install their own
- Xathonn ( @Xathonn@kbin.social ) 13•1 year ago
That’s when the members need to take keeping the sub NSFW into their own hands.
- Thassar ( @Thassar@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 2•1 year ago
They can ban the mods but if /r/interestingasfuck can’t find new mods for 22 days and counting then /r/dndmemes will probably stay empty for even longer.
- Altima NEO ( @altima_neo@lemmy.zip ) 2•1 year ago
What happened to interesting as fuck?
- EssentialCoffee ( @EssentialCoffee@midwest.social ) 2•1 year ago
IIRC, they shut down in protest, reddit removed the mods and forced then to reopen, then reddit shut them down again because they had no mods.
- WarmSoda ( @WarmSoda@lemm.ee ) 1•1 year ago

Yeah, they have it set to manual approval atm
- Ecks ( @Ecks@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 22•1 year ago
Serious question: Which DND races did you enjoy seeing fuck/be fucked and will you be encouraging that DISGUSTING (👀) behaviour here?
Because I’ll be honest… I kinda enjoyed the smut.
- Nepalman230 ( @Nepalman230@ttrpg.network ) 9•1 year ago
No the great one, but I’m going to be completely honest with you. In the course of making memes where I discovered H games like cloud Meadows when I was searching for art.
I might be attracted to Giants. But not gross looking ones you know I’m talking like hot 10 feet tall guys.
Other than that bugbears, but I think that’s also a size difference fetish.
… have I just wanted to date basketball players all this time?
🧐

Ooh. … giggity?
😉
This actually on while I was searching for an attractive half Giant, I actually found this Manga about a 6 foot one boy who goes to a fantasy world, but he is considered a dwarf, and he is immediately declared the bride of the prince of the Giants.
( bright as a gender neutral term for a non-royal spouse of a royal in this world)
Is this dude from MMO make an ogre or something?
I truly appreciate you interacting with my comment .
Thank you so much.

🥹 So it doesn’t look like this site has meaningless electronic trinkets, but just know I am giving you an award in my heart.
This is exactly the kind of positive talk that I want to encounter here and I really appreciate you.
Normally, I say I’m a librarian, but I’m in so much pain today. I really wouldn’t be much reference help but if you need help, please reach out to your local library or even email when I tell people from other countries we don’t care.

- NekoKamiGuru ( @NekoKamiGuru@ttrpg.network ) 15•1 year ago
Fuck Spez , I have bailed out of Reddit , it is beyond saving because structurally it is built on a flawed concept of assuming benevolent admins who work for the good of the community , and that is no longer the case , they are too far gone to be able to salvage value from that place and we are better off rebuilding better here.
- LyuSapphire ( @LyuSapphire@ttrpg.network ) 7•1 year ago
I’m truly hoping almost every subreddits come to using an alternative like this and shut down their original subreddits. Less things to see on reddit means less traffic, less things to see, less ad revenue, less odds for the website to survive. The proper way to have a good ol’ fashioned mutiny.
- LyuSapphire ( @LyuSapphire@ttrpg.network ) English15•1 year ago
I just joined this website and I am very glad to join along for the ride. I hope more subreddits follow this kind of alternative and delete their subs so Reddit can be left in the dust from barely having anything left to see. Would be a justified end for their greed.
What was your initial reaction when they suddenly created a rule to fire you and blacklist you from being mod again out of nowhere? Must have been quite the surprise, albeit not unexpected.
- AFallingAnvil ( @AFallingAnvil@lemmy.ca ) 13•1 year ago
Cheers for moving over! I’ll almost miss the 50/50 nature of that sub being NSFW

Honestly the better thing to do. Only fools would willingly stick to reddit after the shit the higher-ups have been pulling.
- Ahdok ( @ahdok@ttrpg.network ) 3•1 year ago
I think it’s pretty actively doing that when a bot replies to every post linking to this place :)
