All anarchists are post-left anarchists on this blessed day. UwU

(I'm not actually super familiar with post-left anarchism, plz don't take this seriously)

It's universal among anarchists, to the point of being a litmus test. I had assumed it would be popular among other leftist factions as well, but I don't have any numbers or anything. Pretty sure it's more popular among left-liberals than moderate liberals as well, so that would point to it being more of a leftist ideal.

It's partly specific to the kbin software, and partly specific to kbin.social. The biggest problem is that the software doesn't currently support having more than one administrator account per instance.

The flagship instance, kbin.social, is administered by ernest, who is also the lead developer of the project. Working on the software seems to keep him plenty busy, to the point where he's not able to keep up with administrator tasks.

Since kbin.social was (I assume) not used by very many people before the reddit migration, almost all the older magazines are owned by ernest, and have no other moderators set. There's also a large number of magazines that were created during the migration, but have since been abandoned by their owners. Reassigning these is a task that currently only ernest can do.

And of course as the most populated instance, kbin.social is a more desirable target for spammers, compared to the other kbin instances.

Neither lemmy nor kbin have an account migration feature yet. AFAIK that's just a mastodon thing for now.

C'mon now. You may find BartsBigBugBag annoying, and "critical support" is kind of sus, but they're not anywhere near hexbear's level:

  • There's been no assertions here that anyone should end up "against the wall".
  • From what I've seen BBBB tends to argue mostly alone against a larger audience. Hexbears intentionally show up en masse to overwhelm their opposition.
  • BBBB's arguments appear to be genuine. At the very least, they're not flooding the thread with annoying image macros and pictures of pig shit.

Anarchists are opposed to being ruled, not opposed to organization. We want our organizations to be voluntary.

Do you also believe a flat tax is fair?

I think you might be looking for the term "head tax", as in each person pays a fixed amount regardless of any other characteristics.

That one had me wondering if it was someone parodying a bot. Given the rest of it though, they'd have to be way more dedicated to the bit than is realistic.

Anyway, back to discussions about chainsaws and related topics:

That's a different (and imo less useful) definition of reactionary. Reactionaries in the sense that I'm talking about are those that want to return society to some previous (generally awful) status quo.
