    Guys they’ve actually changed the process to be much simpler. To apply you need to DM me with your credit card number, expiration date, and the numbers on the back. And your name and address (important, do not forget!)

    minimum 5-10 hrs a week of unpaid labor with a wide breadth of required/wanted skills including: interpreting legal documents, technical skills such as SQL for their data harvesting, web design, etc.

    For the least inspiring/community oriented site on the fediverse

    It will only attract feds and power trippers, and maybe not even the power trippers

    Its insanity to ask for that for a Lemmy INSTANCE! It is not even a foundation that does anything! CV, Legal Name, and an interview for an UNPAID MODERATOR POSITION! Even reddit does better for their “best of the best” moderators by at least actually giving them a paycheck. This is a joke and not a future of the fediverse

    Also, consider this a desenho peixe mordendo anzol if you go against the team for any reason, they can literally doxx you. Them being the “reddit” doesn’t make that fact any better.

      Truly incredible-to-behold levels of Caesar complex, they really do think they’re the next Reddit. Next step is to rent an office in the middle of nowhere that’s been abandoned for the past 40 years and is on the verge of collapse and ordering nameplates from VistaPrint to further their delusions of grandeur.

    While not strictly required, a CV with relevant work and volunteer history will help during the application process.

    Lmao do they want a cover letter and references too?

      admin position, aka they probably have access to a lot more private info and are likely to be able to take the site down if they were malicious. But of course, treating it as corpo shit rather than establishing community trust over a long period of time seems… a bit silly

        Even reddit understood this in its early years. They were gung ho about being pro-community and had some genuinely good staff back then who consistently communicated openly with that community. They had an open source development community and all sorts of shit. This was all built on contribution and trust. If they wanted someone, they didn’t do applications they reached out to people personally that they already knew would be good for the roles.

        They are trying to mimick reddit today rather than reddit during its early life when it was doing all the right things you needed to do with the early adopter audience.
