Thanks! Not quite as wild as I was expecting (kind of surprised this was enough to push them to delete their account)
Mod abuse is mod abuse, regardless of the level. They clearly felt embarrassed for needlessly being mean and getting caught for it after trying to hide the fact.
Then they tried to excuse it on their mastodon.
If they're willing to go through all that for something so minor, they would absolutely be willing to do the same to hide worse behavior.
Probably decided “fuck this” and quit volunteering instead of dealing with drama llamas.
