I’m sorry, I’ll try to be better than most of the others, even though I’m having to set ground rules based heavily on my personal moral code. At the very least, I won’t allow banning of links to competing archives’ content, and I will do my best to not let personal feelings lead to long-term bans. Also, I have a personal rule (and a rule for every community I create and manage) that no ban can exceed 730 days (or 731 days IF one of those days is the February 29th of a leap year) or 2 years.
Yeah, that kind of behavior can’t be allowed to happen in the Fediverse. I already have found out that this instance and lemmy.zip aren’t compatible anymore for no good reason.
EDIT: Turns out I should have used all lowercase letters in trying to find the sister sites of this and c/openttd on lemmy.zip, I am dumb.
Also, I get what you’re trying to say; reddit was even worse about that kind of thing. But that’s my whole point: Community managers cannot be trusted with defederation, imagine if reddit didn’t allow the linking of twitter tweets or tumblr posts or whatever when corporate social media was actually desirable and then wonder how people would react to the promises of Web 2.0 and its “better convenience” factor.
Mark my words, if defederation is not removed from the watchmen’s reach, they will try to destroy the entire fediverse with it.
I mean, I’ll admit I fit the “basement” definition, and as for “loser” I’ve unfortunately never succeeded in ANY long term life goals - always due to circumstances beyond my control - which makes me a “loser” in the sense of “never wins”, but power trips and the people who enjoy them are a pet peeve of mine. Honestly, I despise the proud assholes of the world so much that my trademark deadly sin is wrath, but I promise to do my best with this “reset” of the internet provided by the downfall of the old overcentralized crapsack world wide web 2.0 that had us all trapped in corporate nightmares.

I thought lemmy mods were different :( WHY isn’t there a platform without sweaty power trippin mods?! WHY?!

my experience on reddit is that some mods are cool and others think their position means they get a Power Downvote.
