MODERATORS
 

First of all, to anyone downvoting my Comments about /e/ being a piece of shit, because...

  • they advertise themselves as degoogled, but instead let you connect to Google/Microsoft/etc services

  • replace all the propriatery not at all Secure Services from Google, with.... Drumroll please.... Propriatery and not at all Secure Services from themselves and actively encourage it.

  • They are For-profit

  • and being MORE out of date then even Fairphones stock roms.

... I told you so. Dm your Instance admin, pay them to send the DB entries of your Downvotes on a Thumb drive (or anything else from SSD to 3.5 inchHDD, depending on your preferences), and shove it up your rectum.

But a TL;DR:

/E/ is not Private. They just switch one bad comany to another one.

Me being a GrapheneOS moderator doesn't change things. I'm a random person on the internet who was interested in the project and helped out in the community before joining the moderation team. All of the Rossmann stuff happened before I was a moderator.

I'm a GrapheneOS user and I am a member of the team. If I ever saw anything I had a problem with, I'd jump ship. All people I've met that are involved with the project are smart and dedicated. None of them are "lunatics".

But since my affiliation with the project makes you think this way, I feel it's only fair to point out that from where I'm standing I'm the one who's being reasonable here. You're the one who seems to have an odd, unwavering support for Rossmann or maybe an odd unwavering dislike for GrapheneOS. What are your affiliations? Why are you defending Rossmann's harassment? Why are you using such over the top charged language about our team, such as calling us lunatics?
