      would you like to revisit this decision?

      There are other mods in that community. If anyone of them comes to a different conclusion, I’m not going to fight it. I still think it’s a post made from that commercial domain explicitly to promote that outlet. The employee gave no counter arguments other than what boils down to ‘trust me bro’. Him ignoring the fact that I brought up that his analytics tool doesn’t even measure Lemmy votes, just Mastodon-style boosts (which Lemmy doesn’t even have), didn’t really made him look any better from my POV. Neither did his later snarky comment.

      Again: If one of the other mods over there wants to reverse my decision, I’m absolutely fine with it.
