You avoid trying to be anything like /r/nz. I’ve been unsubbed from that place for ages because it was shit. And part of the reason it was shit is because the mods there did nothing about the brigading and “just asking questions” and dog whistling from users who coincidentally all tended to be pretty active on /r/ck. Funny that. Basically the “welcome to all ideologies” thing can get in the bin, because there are some dickheads who don’t deserve a chance because they’ll just fuck things for everyone else.

Fortunately /r/CK is still around. If /r/NZ does something you can count on them to do the opposite.

Oh, got it. Just Lemmy.nz - I’d tried the full url.

Bit of a novice here: like everyone else. What am I putting as my homepage? Mlem has a very Apollo looking vibe so far so I’m sure that I’ll dig it once I can start using it!
