  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

To be clear, not talking about this community, obviously 😛.

What's the point of writing down rules, if mods just do what they want? But I suppose that's the risk you take when you call someone a liar in a small community; they might be a mod.

Edit: I'm not trying to say that mods suck, they perform a useful and often thankless job. Just that it can be difficult for small communities to get a healthy number of good mods, which can become a problem.

It can happen in any lemmy.world community, even if you did absolutely nothing wrong and you wont be told anything, not even that you have been banned or why. You just suddenly can not log in any more and when the ban is over you might even find that all content you ever posted has been deleted and can not be brought back. Lemmy.world admin team urgently needs to improve their banning practice and they should really consider to start answering emails. On the other hand, did I already tell you what a great instance lemm.ee is? They also have a very nice admin team over there ...

People need to urgently stop using Lemmy world so they no longer have any power to abuse.

Izzy always needs someone or something to be angry at lmao

At no point have I been angry about something here. This is about not putting all your eggs into one Lemmy basket. Especially one with inadequate people running it. The goal of Lemmy is decentralization, not centralization.

You were all cool with it when you were a moderator on an Lemmy World community right until the moment you got banned.

You have no idea what I think or believe.

Your post history is disturbing. Do you have an intentions of actually using this website or is your only goal to cause trouble?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Don't need to know what you think I see your behaviour. And if you want to talk about a post history: https://lemm.ee/u/[email protected] - just looking how many times you go after sync. Until you got banned and then switched targets to lemmy world lmfao

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I have nothing to hide here. The admins of lemmy world on the other hand do. They aren't good people and your efforts here are misguided.

At any rate I'm going to block you as 100% of your post history is drama.

lemmy.world is just reddit 2.0 but worse. Make your own instances with whatever rules you want, don't chain yourselves to the dicks in charge of lemmy.world

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Simply stop using lemmy.world. Their practices have always been shit.

Well, good to see they’re not hypocritical then? I’m confused how that’s an argument…

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Because lemmygrad's practices have always been shit, you know - being a tankie instance. But ofcourse you would be confused, it's a requirement to sign up there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Bans not notifying the user is a Lemmy-wide problem.

Lemmygrad is pretty explicit in its instance rules IMHO about what it doesn’t allow. I don’t think it’s exactly a secret.

Yeah it's sick as hell
