They had to close down to check that all content was in compliance of the UK Online Safety Act.

Now they have reopened after making a few adjustments. Links and media require approval before being displayed, and links are only clickable if logged in.

They should just setup a PieFed community somewhere.

    They left Lemmy after finding out that the modlog is public. I doubt they would find PieFed any better, as it is just as transparent.

    so they didn't want to disclose ban reasons and such?

    Will moderation be public?

    I guess not.

    Note that GOL tried moderating a comm on lemmy for a while and flamed out it because they considered an open modlog a terrible idea. Personally I don't trust people who hate transparency like that

    Mods seem like weird people. Weird.

    They always need to trip on a little bit of power. Same with some of the Lemmy maintainers and instance managers, it seems.

    Just do it for the love of the game, man.
