Wolfballs died and everyone came here. For what ever reason, exploding heads seems to have more traffic. I don't know what the secret sauce is. The downside is that I have to tolerate more arguments made in bad faith. That really gets tiresome. The upside is that with adversity comes new opportunities as well as having awesome people here, so I choose to be positive about it.

As much as I would like to start a Catholic community on exploding heads, I don't have the time or energy to do it correctly. I would rather support someone else in that effort.

All in all this place seems like it is shaping up nicely. At first it was a home out of necessity, now it is becoming a place where I'd like to stay.

I'd like to think that the reason for success of EH is luck. Since wolfballs died reddit "died" and the consequences of Musk taking over twitter are present. Also lemmy.ml didn't defederate us for very long time

That makes sense. MOB did a fine job and I had no qualms with him at all.
