MODERATORS
 

I'm seeing patterns and likeliness that I find on Reddit, to be happening on here on Lemmy. Too many of the same moderators and some of the ones that enact comment removals and everything seem to inflict one party but not the others.

That's just bad moderating. So, okay, you removed a comment of mine for incivility. But you allow the clear responses after my comment to stay there, that also is just as uncivil.

Because that makes about as much sense as the way things are moderated over in Reddit, right?

Please tell me I'm not wasting my time on the Fediverse if this is how things are going to be. Bad enough that moderators seem to have selective attention spans in regards to what is posted on the instances that they allow. Repetitious stuff that clutters the magazines when we want to read something new.

If this is the case, I mind as well go back to ban evading whack-a-mole with Reddit.

Love checking the modlogs on posts like these to see OP calling someone deserving of being lynched lmao

It's not immediately apparently exactly which removed comment in the modlog triggered this post, but one of your last comments told another user they deserved to be lynched because they disagreed with you about...lynching. Then you called them idiots for not "getting it".

If you smell shit everywhere, instead of crying "what about?!", maybe check your shoe.

If you are constantly having your comments removed and other comments that you think are comparably bad are not being removed, leave that instance. If you are seeing it everywhere, then leave Lemmy.

You know what they say about someone who smells shit everywhere they go. If you have to ban evade on reddit and Lemmy, you just might be the problem. I opened your profile. The first and last thing I read was a suggestion that someone you were speaking to should be killed. Introspect.

Best feature of Lemmy

The magic of the Fediverse is that even if some of the other comments are right and you're the problem, you can go and spin up your own instance with your own rules. Other instances might not federate with you, but that's the whole point. Everyone can federate with the other instances of their choice.

And the same goes for communities too. Unlike Reddit, people here (like me:-) continually browse by "All", and will find posts as they come out, plus there are communities literally dedicated to letting people know what communities are out there.

Counterpoint: mods here are doing heroic work by holding up all of Lemmy, even though (reportedly? I am not a mod here myself) the mod tools here suck ass, especially across instances. It can't be an easy job.

It's also unpaid labor, and exposes them to things like CSAM or other nastiness that I for one would not want to have to wade through. Sure, nobody is perfect, yet if OP wants to volunteer then let them, but why the shade at these unpaid volunteers donating their time to keep us all happy?

Whilst I agree that some mods may be overzealous and that the fediverse has a serious slant, you also seem to have behaved very uncivilly.

In any case, unlike reddit, there are many options. When lemmy.ml/c/world bans me for criticizing genocides comitted by the USSR & CCP I can still post to lemmy.world/c/world or even create my own community for world news elsewhere.
