    You know things are going to shit when they can’t even make up excuses for their administrative decisions that align with their policies. “You can’t take a subreddit NSFW if it was SFW before, and people aren’t expecting it.” That is nowhere in their policies, and many of the subreddits held votes to determine whether they should change their communities’ focus. I hope all of the new Lemmy instances and their admins, even if they acknowledge the importance of interpreting rules flexibly, realize that there is a finite limit to how far plain meaning can be twisted before you’re outright making shit up.

      It feels like the bad teacher has taken over and is making rules up as the class is slowly turning into total chaos.
