    Isn’t this among the many reasons why people left reddit? Because mega threads limits discussions and are just terrible and lazy ways for moderators to heavy hand censor whatever they didn’t like?

      No. /r/worldnews doesn’t restrict discussion about the Ukraine war to a megathread.

      They have the option to filter dominant topics, which we should to.

      Confining everything to a megathread is stupid.

      Moderators are doing their jobs for free, let’s not put stress on them, there are however dedicated communities for this specific topic.

        So we’re not allowed to disagree or offer our opinion on improvements? And the reason we shouldn’t do this is because it might… stress the mods? Sounds like that other website that I left for this one.

      They didn’t leave over that, they had Ukraine-specific subreddits instead. There are a couple decent sized ones on Lemmy as well.

      Megathreads are a good meet-up point for other sources of information

        Cool. This isn’t the content being posted though, it’s the restriction to a megathread.

        Great way to avoid taking criticism, lol.
