(Minor) Post asking for feedback on potential slowness on LW (where 36% of the Lemmy users are located) is removed from !asklemmy@lemmy.world as a "support question" (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Okay, this is definitely a minor case, but probably still worth reporting.

Modlog is here, 17 hours ago: https://lemmy.world/modlog/3106

That question is useful for most of the people, as LW hosts 36% of the users base, and most of the active communities (https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active). Removing it as a support question seems questionable.

The most curious thing is that I investigated a bit, as LW still allows to show which mod performed which action (that how things worked in 0.19.3), and that removal has been performed by a mod that literally hasn't performed any action in 6 months: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&modId=45389

Not wanting to put a tinfoil hat, but it's still curious to me that that specific mod came out from a 5-months inactivity just to remove that one post highlighting potential issues with LW.

What do you all think?

Rule 5:

It is not a place for ‘how do I?’, type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

I don't know, I can see how that can fall under 'regarding the site itself'. Don't know that you 'deserved' it, but I also don't think that I'd regard the removal as power-tripping. It's an edge case, and it seems a bit excessive to accuse the mod of power-tripping over it.

    It's not an "how do I", as I wasn't experiencing the slowness myself, I was looking for feedback from LW users. And the best place to get that is probably the !asklemmy@lemmy.world community.

    It’s an edge case, and it seems a bit excessive to accuse the mod of power-tripping over it.

    I agree it's minor, I'll add that in the OP.
