It kinda fucks with me when mindlessly scrolling and being like “didn’t I see this exact post not 10b seconds ago?”. Then realizing it’s a separate instance.
You see the same effect in person, too, with HOAs being the most notorious example. But there are many volunteer-based organizations that do incredible good work. Power tripping is a thing to watch out for and build guardrails against, but thankfully it’s not universal.
My very first Lemmy post was in what is essentially the only Lemmy comics group, and it got removed because it contained “profanity”.
I was trying to post original content directly to Lemmy, which is something no one ever does. But it got removed, so fuck it, I posted it to reddit. Two hours later, it was on the front page of reddit. So not to toot my own horn, but I think that’s a sign that it was pretty fucking premium OC, the kind of content that a Lemmy mod should want in their community.
I’ve since seen it reposted all over the internet, and it’s hit the reddit front page several more times.
I once got into a debate on a left wing community about the methods to outsmart conservatives. The guy wasn’t agreeing with me, at one point I said “doing the same thing is just lunacy”
I was removed and banned for “ableism”
That’s the best the mod could come up with to silence my opinion.
I don’t know, I haven’t been banned on Lemmy for saying pedos deserve to die yet. I got that twice in one week on Reddit, and then again almost immediately when I got back.
Can’t except much better from a reddit mod team.
Shiiet. At least they awnser. Other mods just mute you for 30 days for asking and report you for harassment if write again afterwards.
TBF the Reddit mods who do a good job never get talked about. I’ve seen very reasonable mod teams
Lemmy isnt Better, all the mod rejects from Reddit are mods on Lemmy and are using any tiny speck of power to do what Reddit mods would do
Thing is tho, you own r/bastard mods, you own it entirely
You own c/bastardmods.lemmy.bastard, people move to c/bastardmods.lemmy.fuckyou

Yeah volunteer mods almost always act like fief lords on any platform.
The type of person that would volunteer is precisely the type of person who shouldn’t be a mod, usually.

The profanity in question: “balls”.
