  • I’m not so sure.

    There were discussions a while ago about splitting the sub in two communities: the main one, and then a “new comers” one, for where people could ask regular new comers questions. There was some push for the community, as the sub was becoming more and more a “what are the best neighborhoods” set of questions every week.

    That one mod (I think it was them, not sure, but anyway, it’s not important) where against it, because it would “fragment the community”. From a pure growth perspective, creating another community where people would also come was beneficial to them (as they would mod both), but I guess they were just reluctant to change. To me it’s more this than the growth mindset that pushes them to make this kind of decisions.

    Still so weird that people work for a Nasdaq company for free.

    I mod here a few communities on Lemmy, because I know everybody, from the devs to the admins to the app devs, is a volunteer. Giving my free time to work for a company that has shareholders seems so strange.
