I got banned earlier today with the message “rule 1”, no other information about
why, or which comment broke the rule. As far as I can tell it was this one
[https://lemm.ee/post/40926293/14431597], which just says “We want the bot gone.
That’s it. It’s really that simple.” So I checked the modlog for other bans, and
@aniki@lemmings.world [https://lemmings.world/u/aniki] was banned today as well,
also just for “rule 1”, probably either for the comment saying “a stupid bot
writing useless bullshit” [https://lemm.ee/post/40926293/14430488] or “This is
what you call “Not listening to criticism.””
[https://lemm.ee/post/40926293/14429206], neither of which are an attack on any
person. (Also earlier today @MindTraveller@lemmy.ca
[https://lemmy.ca/u/MindTraveller] was banned with the message “fuck off”, which
I’m pretty sure is not a reason to ban someone from a major community, but
doesn’t appear to be related to the MBFC bot.) One more today, @stormesp@lemm.ee
[https://lemm.ee/u/stormesp] was banned, again just “rule 1”, last comment being
this one [https://lemm.ee/post/40926293/14416892], again not an attack on any
person. So what’s the deal here? I couldn’t find any rules for mods on
lemmy.world with a brief poke around, but are we letting mods run major
communities like little fiefdoms, banning people for criticism?
Soullists being persecuted for their beliefs again smdh
It's actually the tankies' fault that the lib lemmitor mods are acting like dipshits
Systemic ideological bias in the construction of a social media platform? I don't know, that sounds like some blue-haired marxist bullshit to me
Wait people think it was bad he was banned for calling someone else a pedo?
Jfc world lol
my brother in christ it's a reddit clone
