Previously: Re-Opening Edition

Let’s get started!

  1. Mod team!

As you probably noticed by now, we added a few familiar faces on our mod team. People around LW should know the NSQ mod team very well by now, they are the best, and I’m very glad to have them around to help me out.

Say hi to them when you get the chance. They’re nice people.

  1. New Banner!

Thanks to @AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world’s great work during our impromptu contest extension, we have a new banner! (And the trees are SFW this time!)

The banner and icon will be there until we collectively get bored of them. I’m thinking we’ll use the meat boy android as our new icon next time. Happy little accident, as they say.

  1. 20K Subscribers!

To be honest, we reached that milestone a lot faster than I expected. So, let’s keep making this a great place to talk all things Android.

  1. Poll: Ex-Bird App links/screenshots as posts.

With that being said, I would like to do a little poll this time on your opinion, feel free to give your two cents on this topic.

I was never a big fan of reading Twitter links or screenshots being submitted as posts in the old place, as I feel they are kind of similar to memes in that they are usually low effort and lowers the discussion quality. The behavior exhibited by Musk in the newly renamed “X” company has not been great either.

It’s not really a problem in the community right now, but I’d like to hear people’s thoughts on what our policy should be on those posts just in case.

  1. And as usual, anything regarding the operations of this community is up for discussion here. We really like feedback.

    Twitter sources might be inevitable as that’s where many Android rumors/leaks come out first. So probably have them piped through Nitter before sharing?

    (though Nitter seems to be having issues lately as Elon keeps fucking up the layout)

      I would say the content quality is my primary concern and the actual site is a big but secondary concern.

      Speculations and rumors are only interesting sometimes, but usually there just isn’t enough info for people to talk about them.
