Welcome to the banned club
Not even banned I'd just get my comments occasionally removed for linking a mobile link, the wrong wiki, or a video example of what I was talking about
Damn they sure went Germany(1933-1945) after the fuck spez thing
I feel like the micro managing power tripping Reddit mod has always been a stereotype. The only difference now is a lot of the moderators that seemed a bit more sensible left and I don't think the idea of a "power mod" can really translate to Lemmy considering how it's decentralized
A small number of them have tried, but quickly stfu when it was pointed out to them that they have zero standing here.
I got into it a few weeks ago here on Lemmy.world with some asshole using the same username as he does on Reddit, a mod of 39 subs, when he started lazily regurging all the reasons why Reddit's decisions are delightfully benign and good and to be celebrated . . . yeah, I wasn't having that, except here there is no one who cares about Reddit admin enough to shut me up.
Funny thing, he ended up getting all his Lemmy posts modded the same day. And not just with me: when I looked at the modlog he'd gotten into it that same day with someone in every single Lemmy thread he'd posted to. I haven't looked again but my guess is that he either created a new Lemmy account with a different name or just shut the fuck up and went back home to Reddit like a good serf.
Also, there have been a few rumors about various mods of Reddit subs demanding that popular federation communities of the same name be handed over to their control as well by the admins of an instance, claiming "ownership" and throwing out some non-specific threats to make that happen, but then when that didn't work out for them (I guess when the uproarious howls of derisive laughter finally stopped) they stfu too and presumably crawled back into their Reddit holes as well.
I love watching stupid, self-important fools get escorted rapidly and with force back into their own lane.
