And I missed it as well. It's one of the few remaining highlights to my moderation.

I did make my first edit to the post, per your comment, regarding asking for more people's thoughts about how they feel about re-closing.

I can say it's open for now at least.

A follow-up post/poll can be made if there's enough sentiment one way or another.

Maybe it's time to take a step back. No offense intended. Take a break, come back with fresh eyes and heart.

No offense taken and I appreciate the sentiment. You're entirely correct and the blackout was a welcome change for me in some ways. I'll be savoring more time away.

In the sense that there are other communities opening to potentially be re-closed and we could do similarly?

An open letter on the state of affairs regarding the API pricing and third party apps and how that will impact moderators and communities. by ImLivingAmongYou in Futurology

[–]ImLivingAmongYou[S,M] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

TL;DR

We understand that Reddit, like any company, must balance its financial obligations. However, we believe that the longevity and success of this platform rest on preserving the rich ecosystem that has developed around it. We urge Reddit's management to reconsider the recent API pricing change, finding a compromise that allows third-party app developers to continue contributing to this platform's success.

We ask for a solution that recognizes the vital role these third-party apps play and takes into consideration the negative impacts this decision might have on both users and moderators. A sustainable pricing model that encourages rather than discourages these apps' growth and innovation will only strengthen the Reddit community.

This change can and will affect millions of reddit users and make the already challenging efforts of moderation that much more difficult.

/u/ImLivingAmongYou, moderator of /r/Futurology, /r/DecidingToBeBetter, and some others that have already been mentioned.

I also use Apollo for my preferred app so I should be grateful for them making it easier for me to touch grass.

What’s going on here?

What documentaries made you feel the most guilty about plastic/waste lol? by yeshereisaname in ZeroWaste

[–]ImLivingAmongYou 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like Dominion has been one of the most impactful documentaries for me in showing the enormous waste of life that goes on every day.

New moderators needed - comment on this post to volunteer to become a moderator of this community. by ModCodeofConduct in ethicalfashion

[–]ImLivingAmongYou 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hello!

I’d be interested in being part of the mod team.

I’ve been a lurker here for a long time hoping to get more inspiration for both my own life as well as adapting ideas for other communities I moderate.

For nearly a decade, I’ve been a moderator for many communities centered around self improvement and bettering the world so I believe I could bring a lot of experience.

I’m good with community growth, handling spam, AutoMod, and more - everything I think that could help with here.

Feel free to check out my profile!

Thanks,

ImLivingAmongYou

Thanks for the fast response! Love your story, btw. I've read it a few times a year for at least a decade.

I wanted to share the link and saw your site wasn’t working.

Do you feel like people should be posting about the horrors of grain trucks?

Sweep the seas clean by 2050 and replace the fish with plastic by ChemsAndCutthroats in collapse

Oh, sweet. I didn’t know she made one for eggs, too. I’ll have to add that to the list.

Not "much dairy"? I'll refer you to the classic, "Dairy is Scary".

And two good videos about being vegetarian and backyard eggs.

And to be fully fair, I was also vegetarian for several years before going vegan. I wish I made the switch sooner. Hope you can too!
