Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?

@rimu@piefed.social

What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?

Mass instance bans

Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).

Done

Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).

Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.

He has abused the modlog to claim 'harassment', which I have never engaged in. I have not even interacted with Rimu in any way for days prior to getting kicked from the PieFed developer Matrix channels.

He has decided to mass ban 20 users because they have spoken out against his erratic and hostile behaviour as of late.

Those users are probably going to end up in a banned list hardcoded in the program.

    Well, he already admitted that guardrails should have been put up on lemmy to prevent memes from taking root. So why not put up guardrails for users he doesn't like?

    Oh wait.

    He did.

    He made an anti-cm0002 filter.

    He made an anti-yanks filter that just targeted anyone from the country of anti-yanks VPN

    It's a Belgium filter, it alerts Rimu if anyone from Belgium joins.

    I'm sorry but genuienly, the last time I saw this kind of behavior was like, two decades ago, Garrys Mod RP communities SteamID banning people from other RP communties in their game mode scripts.

    This is just literally petulant child behavior.

    No. It isn't. Because adding in a filter for a single user is extremely fucking problematic and should be left up to admins to ban or users to block.

  • Which is funny because people have said Lemmy's devs would do the same thing in regards to putting stuff into Lemmy. It's also stupid because anyone who cares can make a new account with a different username on another server, or on their same server to bypass that.

    I wish I could be added to a piefed hard coded ban list :3

    I will personally find it funny if that happened, so that I get to pump up my codeberg numbers with pylova and pievolution code to just remove the list

    (Does codeberg even have that sort of activity stuff? I mostly live on my personally hosted repos at this point, I just think it would be funny)
