Got banned recently from their Discord server by [I'm assuming] me calling out their announcement/decision a clownery (which it actually is, because why make a announcement community when you're not informing your userbase), ngl it's mildly infuritating..
What even is not a good look is I didn't really receive a notice that I got banned there...
Edit: phrasing
I'm assuming the reason would've been trolling. Considering the bottom of this is all you did and didn't put a statement like "I don't agree with this channel, I think it's uncalled for" etc etc. although even that I would put into [email protected]
Just tagged a channel and said clownery with no activity in the discord really. Just wanted to add the additional context here and figured a SS would help too.
What makes you think it's "just to read announcement". The initial post didn't even mention announcements, nor was it the purpose of the discord. Yet that's all you can seem to hold on to. It's already been stated there was miscommunication on one announcement and that was that.
This doesn't even make sense because it appears you didn't even read the original discord post or even have an understanding about it.
A) It's not a requirement to join discord, and never was made to be.
B) Discord is of itself a community communication platform for IM.
C) Millions of people actively use discord, it's a popular platform and easier then others like Matrix. If it was something I didn't already use, I would've never joined.
Your message is filled with incorrect assumptions and it appears your unwilling to go find the answers that are even on the same page as these comments. It's very surprising with the internet nowadays and people can't even seem to find information that is right in front of them, yet they act like they already have the facts.
Why would I be active in the DC when its supposedly purpose was announcements about the site and whenever this site is down? Why would you assume/expect people join in a DC server to interact?
Could you please clarify your source, the discord post as OP mentioned doesn't read that. Lemmy.world announced their Discord server. And if you looked around the main purpose isn't focused around announcements. It seems there was miscommunication and it wasn't posted to lemmy, mistakes happen.
That is sort of the point of Discord as a instant message community platform.
I joined the discord because:
Why did you join?
