@flancian Eduardo, I hear your frustration with our friends on the CWG, but as you well know people on the working groups do their best. The TWG has gotten its share of criticism for the time it has taken to do its work, so it doesn't seem fair to judge the CWG for taking the time it needs.

In the meantime I plan to move my main posting to Bluesky or some other Fediverse account and cross-post from there. For all its downsides, Bluesky so far lets me talk to the people I want to talk to and the one time I filed an appeal to a policy humans actually responded to it in a timely manner and were not dismissive of my request.

@Matt_Noyes the pattern is clear from my PoV (not saying I am fully right here, just voicing it): suspending is easy, unilateral and quick, removing suspensions even when a directly affected party requests it is hard, group-driven and somehow time (and occasionally emotionally) intensive. At least this time I didn't have to set up a vote and do a week of extra work to undo what a mod did after probably max five minutes of consideration, like last time with Threads :) Or did I?

I'll try to take a break and consider what I want to invest my time and effort on. I am averaging multiple hours of work for the coop some weeks, and all this has made me wonder again if it all makes sense, in particular given that people are making it clear they don't appreciate my way of working.

In any case, I do know that the vast majority of people here have good intentions, and I know you do. Thank you for the work you do and have done for the CWG and for Social.coop in general!
