Per the discussion in these two posts:

As mod on that (gossip) comm I agree. To be honest, I also think it’s unnecessary to have two separate dunking comms based on whether someone is a public figure or a random person. A lot of times that distinction can be quite blurry, and I don’t blame people for choosing to post in Slop instead, as that is the more active comm.
Reunite El Chisme and Slop to a single comm, and remove slop’s rule #8. “Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip”
Yeah for the most part I just think the people that get upset at content moderation need to be bullied a little bit because content moderation needs to happen even if it is inconvenient at times. For me the convenience of two comms for separation is higher than the inconvenience of moderation.
Sorry, I’m not following. Are you saying that there are recent posts in this comm that should be removed by mods because they belong in slop? Scrolling through several pages, I see at most one post that, based on my understanding of where you’re drawing the line, is probably something that would be better in badposting than either here or slop.
I haven’t done an audit. My commentary is mostly based on other people’s complaining. I am not complaining.
Gotcha - I do appreciate that you’ve been willing to share your perspective on the value of keeping this comm, even if it’s still not something I understand. Thanks for discussing it with me!
