This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.
Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions from mod(s).
- Provide the cause of the sanction (e.g. the text of the comment).
- Provide the reason given by the mods for the sanction.
- Don't use private communications to prove your point. We can't verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Don't deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Don't harass mods or brigade comms. Don't word your posts in a way that would trigger such harassment and brigades.
- Do not downvote posts if you think they deserved it. Use the comment votes (see below) for that.
Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.
Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.
Some acronyms you might see.
- PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
- YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
- BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
- CLM - Clueless mod: The mod probably just doesn't understand how their software works.

Well the main reason was in the beginning I knew that servers might not last forever and I wanted to make sure I had backup accounts just in case, as well as for the purposes of negating possible federation issues (which I faced the moment I joined Lemmy.world). The more long term reason was that I thought in the future there might be a multi-account feature in Lemmy, so I wanted to have many accounts on Many different servers so I could so link them if and when that feature came into play. Looking back I'm not sure how likely it'll be to ever come, hopefully maybe, at the very least someone could develop a client which supports it.
On the Mastodon side it's simpler, I started on Mastodon.social, over time I grew to hate it because it was filled with spam, trolls, and very much limited by other servers, and I left and joined pawb.fun where a lot of the people I follow and want to follow are on. I joined dragonchat.org because pawb.fun was having outages and I still wanted to stay connected with some of my friends who were there. I joined chaos.social because I wanted a more general purpose non-furry instance to follow non-furry topics on, but still will not go back to mastodon.social. I believe I did make one on utter.online but I don't really know why.
I'm in social.sdf.org (Mastodon) and lemmy.sdf.org mainly because I'm an SDF member, though I've been a bit inactive lately. Haven't even really played on their Minecraft server. I should get back to doing that soon, I'm sure those guys miss me, and I left a lot unfinished there.
