Summary:

• Mod of an inactive community is upset that I try to build [email protected] rather than [email protected] and removes a comment encouraging a user to crosspost their question

• Mod action: https://lemmy.world/comment/14369112

• Modlog https://lemmy.world/modlog/4457

• They then come to the lemm.ee community and use incorrect data such as "this community has no posts by other people than you" (it does, 4 posts in the last 11 days, while theirs had 2 in the last month) https://sopuli.xyz/post/21608236?scrollToComments=true

• They accuse me to be on a "vendetta" against LW while I'm the main poster on [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] and [email protected]

• they try to bargain the consolidation of [email protected] and [email protected] , while that has nothing to do with the league of legends communities (television and showsandmovies were both active, here the LW version hasn't had a post in the last 23 10 days)

The whole post seems strange to me, what do you all think?

edit: As I'm seeing a lot of worry about the impact this will/could have on the community, please be assured we have the same mod team, and will be holding the community to the same standards. the same things that were always allowed will continue to be allowed and the same things that got things removed before will continue to get things removed before. Lemmy.world admins have agreed to allow us to run our community on our terms. It is my pleasure to announce that effective immediately, we are transferring our community to Lemmy.world! This has been a few months in the making, so my entire mod team is already on board. FAQ: Why? That's a complicated question with a long answer! The primary difference is moderatorial and ideologial differences between my team and Ada's excellent team of admins. We are on good terms with Ada and her team, and have gotten her consent to do this. In addition to this, we have had ongoing issues with federation and moderation that has caused a subpar experience for many people on other instances. How does this work? Currently, as there is not an easy way to transfer an entire community (trust me, we checked), we are locking the community as mod-only, and moving our focus to the 196 on lemmy.world. For you guys, functionally nothing has changed. What about the posts? Well, we tried to transfer them, but there was no real way to do so without absolutely destroying lemmy.world's federation. For this reason, we are simply archiving this community as mod-only. Everything is staying up, you just won't be able to post new content. Comments are still enabled, so we will continue to check our modlogs for some time after the transfer has settled. As for the posts on lemmy.world's 196, we're leaving those up too. From this point onwards, all posts made to that community are beholden to the rules you are all used to, but anything pre-existing is getting grandfathered in.

IF YOU GUYS HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, PLEASE PUT THEM IN THE COMMENTS OF THIS POST, AND I'LL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER THEM. Once again, here's the link to our new apartment of awesome. (universal: [email protected])

A rage bait post they just restored: https://lemmy.world/post/24282976. The initial removal was about rule 3 - no rage baiting. That rule has been removed.

Another rage bait comment against vegans: https://lemmy.world/comment/14535452

I cannot repost what Flying Squid was posting here, because it involved highly disturbing and dangerous content, including:

While this behavior is shocking, it’s not completely out of left field, as members of this community and platform will already be familiar with their behavior. Flying Squid has long been regarded as one of the least productive and most problematic mods on all of Lemmy, often picking fights and abusing their mod privileges. I view this change as a positive step for Squid, .world, and Lemmy as a whole.

I actually even liked the app. Bruh.

Edited as per rules:

This is a post about the newly-viral in the west Chinese social media app Rednote.

I actually liked the app and even said as much, however the app prompts a permission for "Making and managing phone calls" as you can see in my first comment (linked below), I felt it needed to raise this as a potential concern as it's suspicious.

Original comment is at: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35733739/16034665 And https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35733739/16035177 And https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35733739/16035273

Original post is above the linked comments.

The potentially offending text is spread across several comments, the ban does not cite any specific comment.

Modlog is at: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=7652836

Reason: Rule 1 on World News at Lemmy.ml, which goes as such:

No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia. Code of Conduct.

What's even funnier is I'm a bisexual trans woman from Russia, I'm about half of those things they are banning me for being prejudiced against, a fairly regular visitor and commented on .ml, hexbear vet (also banned unrelated to this lol), actually a pretty big fan of Mao (though he made some questionable decisions) and have had a book of his quotes by my bedside for god knows how many years by now, it's my support network when I need to feel heard in rage against various bastards like landlords.

I even liked the app and said it's probably not malware in my opinion as someone with genuine qualifications and a dayjob of making such calls. I was frankly not just being not bigoted, I was pretty charitable too for a multitude of reasons, one of which is to make the tankoids at ml more receptive to it.

However I guess unless I literally mindlessly see mandarin and go soyjak over it every time it's not simpling enough. Tankies isn't even it, it's literally weabooisn for china.

I just got banned from /c/latestagecapitalism for calling out GodlessCommie in a completely different thread. If you look at their modlog they're ban happy and spread loads of Chinese misinformation.

Please no brigading, I'm only linking for context.

Criticising the OP for being spiteful by saying "Served them right!" in the post when lack of customers resulted in menu changes, which still failed to save the restaurant is hardly "excusing carnism" or being a "fake vegan" in my opinion.

"fake vegan" isn't in the rules anywhere either? Odd really.

Failing to celebrate the closure of a (formerly) vegan restaurant due to lack of customers hardly sounds like 'carnist rhetoric' (rule 5) to me but what do I know.

who is getting trolled there is no trolling happening here

#remember no flamewars that means you have to be nice to me and not say "YDI"
^(/s)

###my issues with this

• there is no rule against political posts

• all but two people in the comments seemed to be having fun with it

• i didnt receive a moderator warning- my post was simply removed with a frivolous reason given

• a shitposting community is the only place to post a shitpost like that ^(because if its posted elsewhere its just trolling or at least not funny)

i did expect the second post to be removed and agree that the ban is fair assuming its temporary

it was a text post so ill just paste it in the comments here

Dafuck? Removed for rule 3? [email protected] what the?

As far as I'm aware running and getting DNS to work on a home network is precisely everything to do with self-hosting.

I get that I'm being a bit of an opinionated asshole, and maybe my post is not overly constructive, but shit, a good rant to start a discussion should not be a reason for removal, least of all for a rule that has blatantly not been violated and that's the only actual reason I can think of why I'd been banned.

A good rant is literally the most worthwhile content imho, a good hearty debate invites viewpoints and opinions, even if the OP is unpopular. I hate the sterile, overly polite, overly PC tone enforced on some Lemmy communities.

As long as no one is literally insulting other users or spreading misinformation or being discriminatory/xenophobic based on characteristics. I wasn't even swearing. I'm so done, I'm blocking all of lemmy.world until they get their shit together.

This post was getting attention.

Then this exchange by the mod

I tried to post and well well well, post was locked. https://lemmy.world/modlog

OK peeps, I am seeing a lot of flamewars lately which go off-topic of this comm. I am also getting dozens of reports about people reporting each other for "rudeness" or "trolling". I don't want this comm to start becoming a drama haven, so I want to try and prevent people getting worked up like this.

What do you think about me starting to deploy strategic 1-day bans for people who I notice are getting into flamewars? If not, what else do you suggest to help people remain civil?

Don't just upvote/downvote. I won't take these into account, I want actual comments about this to better make a decision.

Apparently, bringing up China being authoritarian is now "bigotry". Makes sense now all those comments from .ml users that most people banned from .ml are for bigotry.

"Bigotry" = Anything negative about China or Russia now

For "Troll" even though I've been boycotting .ml for a while and haven't made a single post or comment anywhere on .ml lmao

Fairly certain it was over my post (https://lemmy.world/post/24123469) on my home instance community lol

https://lemmy.world/post/24153212

Seems like he wants to redirect the community to Reddit? https://old.reddit.com/r/linuxsucks101/

Even though that piece of information can be verified by other credible sources (like NBC News). This is a news post they personally didn't like.

This is not the first time this particular mod, who has self-proclaimed to "hate biggotry" but seems to be more about "love censorship", has done something similar.

Apparently mods there don't understand that their own behaviour is mildly infuriating.

Vegans being banned and comments being deleted from [email protected] for being fake vegans.

From my perspective, the comments were in no way insulting and just part of completely normal interaction. If this decision reflects the general opinion of the mod team, then from my perspective, the biggest vegan community on Lemmy wants to be an elitist cycle of hardcore vegans only, not allowing any slightly different opinion. Which would be very unfortunate.

PS: In contrast to the name of this community, I don't want to insult anyone here being a 'bastard'. I just want to post this somewhere on neutral ground. I would really appreciate an open discussion without bashing anyone.

I honestly don't know what's going on there. The sole mod and contributor of the community keeps posting low quality shit purely to bash on Linux and people kept calling him out in the posts and getting banned from the comm for that.

Now I noticed the same mod has just locked comments on all posts to prevent having to ban anyone commenting on their memes
