Hey all, hope this post finds you well. I know the last few days have been upsetting and confusing, but I want your feedback on something that's been discussed by quite a number of users: removing the community c/fakenews. Given the poor communication that's been such a problem lately, I'm calling a vote.

Let's just make this super simple:

Please vote by way of upbearing the emojis pinned below.

monkey-typewriter Keep c/fakenews

frog-no-pretext Remove c/fakenews

Votes will be counted 48 hours after this post was made.

Edit: Sorry, I jumped the gun on this one, gang. Gonna give the previous struggle session more breathing room before we litigate anything else, okay?

We'll be back later this week to discuss further.

    frankly i understand banning beluga if they were the one creating the alts, which i have a hard time believing, but i really dislike the concept of going for a layup like deleting fakenews to regain some kind of credibility with the userbase. it's lateral to the point, does nothing to solve the actual issues being discussed, and shutters a comm that was harmless fun for a majority of the people contributing content to it. i spent probably 2 or 3 hours total writing content, creating actual satire, and to see it unceremoniously swept away as a peacekeeping move honestly makes me upset and think that everyone on a higher level has absolutely no idea what they can actually do to fix the situation
