To give them some leeway - it seems that wasn’t for lack of trying to get more statements from other people involved, and they did try to provide statements by all involved parties were relevant with what they had available.

That was an interesting summary of the happenings since last time, and I appreciate them delving into the criticisms of their last documentary - which I think was overall also a good work of research overall, even if the mistakes they made (and acknowledged) were real.

This paper seems to suggest so, but also mentions “Previous empirical work on this topic, which shows a diverse range of estimated effects […]” - so it seems like other factors will play a role. (Disclaimer: I read only the abstract)

EDIT: Another paper seems to back up those finding.

OK, knowing that takes a bit of pressure off, thank you very much. Then at least it should be possible to handle this even if adding the new accounts as mods myself won’t work out before tonight.

I tried that, adding my lemmy.world account at the same time as my piefed.world account - sadly that one ended up never showing outside my original instance, and also got removed there without any visible reason. Is there a way for the admins to add it as a mod locally, after my original account is gone come this evening? It’s https://lemmy.world/u/AbnormalHumanBeing.

If not, I guess moving the comm to a new one on piefed.world would indeed be a workaround, but I’d like to try and get it working some other way beforehand. The comm on lemmy.world isn’t closing down, and it would be a bit sad to lose the posts there, right now, it can work as a decent place to browse Top/All of the community to check for past popular PeerTube channels and videos one might otherwise not have heard of.

I’ll try adding my two .world accounts again today, and hope it will work out this time, before closing time later tonight.

Because that is the maximum time an average Linux user can stand without trying out a new Distro.
