    Could we have a weekly polls megathread? Though that likely just pushes more work into the mod team.

    I think what we have today is good, the community speaks, and the mods hopefully don’t burn out.

    Mods: you’re doing great.

      Frankly I don’t think that’s a solution either. As I posted earlier. There really isn’t much here for a mod team to sink their teeth into. This really is much more the realm of the community policing itself. Which it did with a Vengeance in this case.

      Having a weird fetish or an obsession is not a bannable offense. And there could be actual polls worth discussing at some point. To be clear I would be just as annoyed with anyone else obsessively virtue signaling about other things as well. Like some Linux advocates. And I say that as a heavy user myself. I think people are just getting tired of scrolling and seeing ozmas multiple daily “Biden bad” posts. Generally linking to a specious poll. Or hyperbolic opinion piece not worth discussing. All in furtherance of pushing a message/agenda.

      It’s especially weird too. Because I do see them post other things that are often more reasonable. As long as it’s about anything other than Biden and Israel.
