Quite impressed with !buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Still a shame that !buyfromeu@feddit.org don't want to consider consolidating, as the two are literally the same community (buyfromEU allows discussion about "neighboring friendly countries")
- I must say I was impressed too.
  
  I don't mind the two communities. Sure, it will be simpler to have a single one but I'm subscribed to both and that's ok.
  
  The main issue I see is people coming from Reddit, finding the .org one and not seeing the .UK one, which is much more active
  
  I was trying to mitigate this by mentioning it to new users, but the mods banned me for this: https://feddit.org/modlog/242334
  
  That’s PTB move. They literally made a vote asking what the community wants and you got banned for advocating for one side of the vote lol.
  
  Yeah, good summary ha ha
  
  if only there were a community where you could complain about this
  
  edit i see you mentioned my rival community already please disregard
  
  Just did: https://jlai.lu/post/16318139
  
  Well, that's quite a knee-jerk reaction on their part, frankly stupid too: aren't we supposed to be a federated network instead of acting like a mini-reddit that wants to own everything? :/
  
  Yes, that's how I perceive it as well. I might document this on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com if I have some time
  
  Imho, it's worth a least showcasing as a surprising decision and, imho, a questionable one too. Calmly discussing it in order to see what others think about it.
  
  I don't like that you were banned for mentioning another community. And I don't like that only because I'm being polite here ;)
  
  I just posted! https://jlai.lu/post/16318139
  
  but the mods banned me for this
  
  Okay, that's not a good look for them. !buyeuropean@feddit.uk has my full support now. Have you tried reaching out to the admins of feddit.org?
  
  Just posted on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
  
  I raised the issue in the feddit.org channel, admins see to have seen it, but didn't seem to want to take action.
