Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
I find your stance just as weird. If you think there are things not being posted, why not post them?
I have been unwell the last couple of weeks, but all the same, there are submissions almost every day. But also yes, there are absolutely days that go by where nothing interesting happens in NZ.
Budget water testing is not decisions, though there is the occasional decision in there. I haven’t seen anything that will personally affect me in any great way, though.
That was my question. Last time I posted some links people complained. That’s why asked this question.
Most are by me. Also “almost every day” says a lot doesn’t it. Some days there are none. Some days there are one. On the days I post there are as many as three or four! What does that say about any social media site?
it’s not water testing. They are announcing their budget one piece at a time.
you don’t think the cuts in the health budget will affect you?
Also it seems weird to say “I don’t want to hear anything that doesn’t effect me”. Seems kind of self obsessed or perhaps even sociopathic.
I haven’t seen that. After a cursory look, it seems your posts generated discussion about the articles.
It says that you need to reset your expectations. Lemmy has a small user base, and Lemmy.nz is even smaller. /r/newzealand has 500k subscribers, and has about 50 posts a day. !newzealand has about 1.5k subscribers, so we should expect about 1 post per week. Really we are doing pretty well.
Also, part of breaking out of the big tech internet is understanding you are allowed to look at more than one site. Don’t expect lemmy to fill all your internet needs.
Honestly? No I don’t, not in the next two and a half years (remembering we are already started from a healthcare system in crisis).
I am astonished that as a moderator of this web site this is good enough for you.
Again. Shocked and amazed at this attitude. You admit we have a healthcare system in crisis, you know that the government is going to make it worse by cutting the budget, they said they have to lose as much as a quarter of the personnel and you think this will have no effect on the health system and will not effect you at all and you just don’t even care enough to have conversation about it.
I wouldn’t say such a thing in public myself but I guess you don’t feel any kind of embarrassment about doing so.
There is nothing special about being a moderator. If you have thoughts on how to encourage discussion and engagement, then feel free to put your plan into action!
I’m afraid that telling people who are enjoying a less addicted social media experience that they are not using Lemmy enough is not my idea of a good plan, but perhaps you have other ideas.
Since you don’t seem to want discussion and engagement I don’t think I will.
Well I didn’t visit the site for three days so I am thinking this place isn’t worth visiting often if at all.
