Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

I'm seeing two posts from the mods that are sneerworthy content that aren't meta-posts announcing the de-sunsetting of r/sneerclub. I just wanna know what's up.

FWIW, I will stay here and probably won't participate in the subreddit out of laziness.

I've never been a frequent commenter in either this community or the subreddit. Though the subreddit moving here was the primary reason I created an account in the fediverse.

I think it's good that the community can just move somewhere else. Though, at the blackout last year, reddit did seize larger subreddits from mods and prevented them at times from linking to fediverse related instances. My opinion is that this sub escaped it because reddit didn't value the size of the subscriber list enough (even though people are commenting here surprised by the reach from /r/sneerclubs still existing followers list)

I think there was a lots of progress made in the last year with the fediverse, but it does make sense to me for why people who are concerned with the viewership of their content would want to move back.
