Discussion about the aussie.zone instance itself

@unionagainstdhmo@aussie.zone's comments were deleted in a thread I was just looking at, and I went onto their profile and it also appears to have been deleted? Anyone have any knowledge about them? It's sad if we've lost such a long-time excellent member of this community.

Definitely not I. The whole point of giving you guys full control of your accounts is you can do this to your own account any time you like. I heard last week that we lost Baku, also. That one was sad, I was going to share a year's streak of my own (for running) after he shared a year of Duolingo. But, he was gone.

Maybe they'll be back one day?

Thanks for sharing the link. I rarely jump on the melbs daily discussion so missed that completely. I don't know what Baku was talking about, but i agree with the person who called him a shining light around here. I especially loved all his train posts.

Baku is literally a high school aged teenager so it's not surprising a discussion-based social media platform filled with adults could get overwhelming for them. As I said to them once before, I was in their position back when old school forums were a thing and it was tough trying to fit in as a teenager when everyone else was in their 20s or older. You doubt and question yourself a lot more at that age, often unfairly. I agree that they were a good poster here and hopefully they'll return one day.
