poVoq Mod , vor 17 Tagen an Europe in [Meta] It seems that feddit.de communities are moving to feddit.org, is it going to be the plan for this one too?

I would much rather someone else takes over moderation, yes. Both because of various federated moderation bugs in Lemmy making it hard to moderate a community that isn't on your home instance and because I have way to many communities that I moderate already.

If needed, I would be willing to help with moderation, but not be the main moderator of such a new community.

If someone wants to create an English speaking Europe community on feddit.org I would certainly not be against it. Ultimatly it is up to the subscribers to decide where to go.

I pinned this thread in the community, so people can promote their proposed alternatives here.

The community on lemmy.ml has the problem that there are some very persistent users that constantly post pro-Russian propaganda or similar mis-information to it, and the lemmy.ml admins refuse to appoint a new mod and seem to be generally fine with that. I certainly wouldn't want to moderate a similar community where Hexbear and Lemmygrad users have full access to like they would on lemm.ee. if fact I wouldn't even be able to as my home instance is defederated from these instances and thus such posts would be invisible to me.

I didn't create this community, but there is another German speaking "europa" community on feddit.de and this one was as far as I know always near 100% English.

There is /c/yurop@lemm.ee

Edit: the problem with lemm.ee is that their block-list lacks some instances that are likely to be problematic for this community specifically, as seen on the lemmy.ml equivalent.

This English speaking “europe@feddit.de” was always a bit out of place on a primarily German speaking instance. The same would be true for feddit.org, I guess. Maybe we should just depreciate this community and see if another English speaking Europe community takes over? As long as it isn’t the one on lemmy.ml (which has major moderation issues), I think I would be fine with that. I only stepped up moderating it on feddit.de because it was very active at the time and the previous mod stepped down.

poVoq Mod , vor 29 Tagen an Europe in Where did AfD voters come from, and where did they go?

Sure, mostly. But especially in east Germany there are some with a deep aversion against voting for "communists", which is why they voted Green and not LINKE before.

poVoq Mod , vor 29 Tagen an Europe in Where did AfD voters come from, and where did they go?

Who are those 50.000 that went from green party to afd? What kind of reason could there possibly be for that?

Misguided pacifists that believe that the AfD would negotiate a peace deal with Putin in Ukraine. I personally know some like that... who just barely stopped short of admitting they considered voting for the AfD because of that.

poVoq OP Mod , vor einem Monat an Europe in Portugal’s socialists and liberals defeat far-right in EU elections

Yeah, true. But relative to other EU countries it's good news that significantly less people voted for them.

I guess it also shows that people do make a bit more of a distinction between national and EU elections.

poVoq Mod , vor einem Monat an Europe in What is your favorite European country that you live in?

The only valid answer is Portugal 😅

You were temporarily banned because you were arguing in bad faith and constantly moved goalposts. And now you got banned again for ban-evasion.

poVoq Mod , vor einem Monat an Europe in Police officer dies after attack at anti-Islam rally in Germany

More moving goalposts. Sorry, but you are not arguing in good faith.

poVoq Mod , vor einem Monat an Europe in Police officer dies after attack at anti-Islam rally in Germany

You mean killing people because they have a different skin color is not even more insane?

poVoq Mod , vor einem Monat an Europe in Police officer dies after attack at anti-Islam rally in Germany

Now it suddenly needs to be the very specific case of drawing a comic 🙄 You are moving goalposts, because you can't deny that there have been a lot of right-wing motivated murders.

poVoq Mod , vor einem Monat an Europe in Police officer dies after attack at anti-Islam rally in Germany

Look up extreme right-wing murders, they are significantly more than islamist ones in Europe.

Brevik alone probably killed more people than all islamists (in Europe) in the same year combined.
