Mods be going hard lately. It's not really good. You have mods in .ml that will ban you for not liking your opinion. You have mods that will ban you if you call out an obvious troll/bot and tell you to let them know and they'll take care of it, BUT they ban you for reporting a troll/bot.

They need to make it where we can see what mod is removing comments and banning people. Right now you can see what actions were taken but you have no idea who did it. It's pretty clear there are some bad actors out there and they're really making this platform less appealing by the day. When you let trolls run wild and ban the humans because they're calling out bullshit....... you have a problem.

I got permabanned from Unpopular Opinions, which I think deserves an award of some kind

It's the reason I left Reddit. The career mods who decide they're important.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

It's inevitable. Power corrupts.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Same, but honestly it seems worse here.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (3 children)

'Cept here you can just start your own lemmy instance if you want with your own rules.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I'd be happy with the mods actually following the rules of the communities.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Its no longer a community, now its an entire instance. And boy does it show sometimes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh good fractured and king of your own personal hole in the ground.

Exactly the way a social species likes it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well that's what lemmy.world is... some guy decided to start it. No company. Just a dude but you seem to like it enough.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's really not on point about if you have an issue just breaking off and making anothered fractured community.

How many times do you do that before it's just 1 person. Exactly as humans and the internet intended when it joined people together over distances not needed to be traveled?

Everyone gets what they want as long as it's being alone so you can never wrong?

No I don't love it here but I compromise because that's the point. This is where people are.
But sure you got me. I live in a society so how could I be such a hypocrite.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

The things about communities is that there made of people. You need to nurture them and work to sustain them. Otherwise they die out on their own.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Depends on the instance

Hopefully they do something quick before this turns into an absolute shit show. It's getting close.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The platform isn't the problem in this context.

This is a people problem.

Since the people here, mostly came from there, we're going to see these issues.

I'm not sure if we can reasonably expect any different

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

They need to figure something out, I like the platform, it's just you post something within the rules and some butthurt mod doesn't like it, he bans you. It's bullshit. The bots and trolls are here, and they're allowed to run rampant in certain communities. Report them, you get banned. Call them out for being an obvious troll/bot, BAN. It's worse than reddit when it comes to that.

Certain major instances are way worse than reddit ever was.
