I don't think "vegan news" is a valuable service and leads to low effort content.
This is supposed to be a social media site for friends, not whatever this is. @josie@vegantheoryclub.org made by far the best post here and I really appreciate that. The rest of the content is boring and banal in my opinion.
Is there anything we can do to change this community? I'd like this to be more about us and our veganism than about vegan news or memes. Please let me know what you think
Always happy to add some inertia to things lol.
Replying here for transparency to the community: I didn't reply to the thread about defederating (except to ask for clarification from one person) because I don't have an opinion on this topic. I don't browse the wider lemmiverse so I don't interact with other instances except for a few communities I subscribe to. I'm also not really online here enough to get a sense of if some instances seem to attract people who cause issues and I don't read the mod logs.
I don't want to give the impression that I don't want to engage in discussion or am discussing community impacting things only in private.
In conclusion:
