Hello everyone! As a lot of us may have noticed, this community was locked for a while. Well, just like we announced here 5 days ago, we’ve set it free again! Let’s help this community thrive and keep it an amazing space together.
From now on, you may post and participate here any time you wish. Though please feel encouraged to follow the community rules, which you can read from the sidebar.
We will be looking for new moderators, and holding regular events here from now on. If you would like to become a moderator here, then please feel free to comment. If you have a sweet new banner or icon for us, then please feel very free to comment. If you have a suggestion for a nice event to have, then please feel very very free to comment! May our future be in peace with all.
It’s very different. I based the current set of community policy on NSQ’s, first innovated by our newly promoted admin and my co-moderator here.
I’ve never liked the idea of having too many bots running around, so I would like to have the least number of bots here as possible. It should just be a place for us to talk about Android and have fun.
I also don’t really like clickbait and spam, so I took an extra step in the rules to prevent it.
Oh, I never really intended for this place to be a replica of the old place. This place was built up organically to be something different, so let’s figure it out together.
Maybe this can be a Android page about how Margot Robbie uses Android, what Android phone best suits Margot Robbie, what Android accessories Margot Robbie prefers, etc.
Hi again! I just wanted to offer again to look into things for you because if you were indeed banned for being critical of Samsung, that’s a problem. All I could find from the modlog was a /u/JshKlsn that was temporary banned for a week for being rude to folks on /r/android by a mod who doesn’t use Samsung devices. I know you’ve said that wasn’t your account. I’d be happy to look into a different one for you as this truly has me confused 🙁.
Yeah, we were all very unhappy with their behavior, and it’s our hope that we leave them behind in the past and focus on building our part of the community instead.
I can’t promise you much, but this I can promise: this is not my community, this is our community, and we will all do our best to make this the best that it can be.

Is there any change in moderation policy compared to lemdro.id?

Thank you for re-opening the place!
And it’s not going anywhere.

I’d rather have dead communities that can be revived than someone being able to block the names from being used on other instances.
Welcome back. You’re going to like it here.
I agree with you :)
XDA and Android Central are different forums, yet they co-exist fine.
Smaller places with passionate people have their advantages, people will talk to each other instead of at each other more.

Androids got me confused twice.
Maybe this can be a Android page about how Margot Robbie uses Android, what Android phone best suits Margot Robbie, what Android accessories Margot Robbie prefers, etc.
Nice try, Margot Robbie!
I am literally right here.
I give my two cents here, but my opinion really is just that, opinion, no more or less valid than yours.
Everybody wants different things for Android, so let’s talk about it here.
But what does Margot Robbie want. Especially after the opening of Barbie.
To finally win my Oscaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr
I’m a barbie girl
No. I’m on strike. New song lyric is at the bottom of the sidebar.
Woot woot!
Hi!
Thanks for helping guys! Cheers
I’m confused. Why did the merge not happen?
Because the community here did not want it to happen.
Welcome back!
Welcome to you too.

Good. The lemdroid instance is run by the subreddit mods, and they’re toxic as hell.
For what it’s worth, [email protected] never closed.

Are there any toxic behavior from them in particular that you would like to talk about?
I mean, besides the obvious one, of course.
I haven’t noticed any toxicity on the lemdro.id instance at all, what am I missing lol?

Without drama.
And we’ll politely yet firmly tell them to leave if they try to start drama here.
Yes! <3
Not OP, but personally I found their level of micromanagement a bit offputting, such as their deletion of every support-adjacent post.
Yeah, I don’t think that’s a problem here since the ranking algorithm is different and things are a lot slower. We’ll see how it goes.
Happy to see it back!
Happy to see you back!
