Definitely the actions of a person who should be unquestioningly trusted to be the sole arbiter of determining what is fine and dandy and what goes too far on Lemmy. Totally not indicative of every legitimate concern that every single person opposing this brought up being accurate, surely not!
ugh you’re giving me flashbacks of getting autobanned by a bot on one of the main leftist subreddits because I’d once posted in one of the right-wing subs (calling someone out on nazi bullshit).
It’s infinitely frustrating to see a community of people who mostly just want a socialized safety net, money out of politics, less inequality and less genocide, get run by exactly the sort of people who seem like they’d be perfectly happy implementing gulags and Stasi on the first day of the revolution.

My favorite reply from him when I called him out in a different thread: “why can’t you just let people use their own computers how they choose”
I’m guessing he has never heard the wisdom of not throwing stones in a glass house. The cognitive dissonance is hilarious, though.
That dude is an unbearable cunt as a mod as well. I am absolutely not surprised for the fact that he is an unbearable cunt as a developer.
IIRC he banned people in all communities he moderated if he found someone that you broke a rule in only 1 community, idk what rules though
Yes, he does. And he is very flexible in his own interpretation of the rules. He’s the kind of power-tripper I hoped leaving behind on reddit.
You don’t leave them behind here; you manage their reach.
Yes, but I hoped that would make this right here so unattractive, they would fall behind.
Hopefully he won’t come back, though evidently he’s rage quit before and come back
New accounts probably already created.

so he was basically crossbanning.
Most mods do that, though.
Really? That’s kinda messed up (unless it’s like, they ban someone homophobic or racist which then make sense)
Just how mods are. Every server’s got a few.
There’s a pretty big difference between “most” and “a few”
All mods are like that; only a matter of degree and how its day is going.
