Bickering between admins and mods. Only a matter of time, though. It's already happening again over at lemmynsfw.

What's the drama about? I'm not keen to wander around the nsfw instances myself, but the social dynamics of taboo and moderation are intriguing.

I feel that the urban patois of YouTube commentators would lend Lemmy the credibility and gravitas it needs to survive. We should also rename Lemmy something along the lines of Reddit2.0 Rebooted to draw in the premium users. I think the capricious and autocratic style of the Reddit moderation team would improve the discourse and dissuade free thinking individuals from expressing troublesome opinions that contradict the narrative of a quality clickbait shitpost.

Overused memes.
