As much as Reddit sux because of the company's policies or mod problems etc., Lemmy is equally as bad.
Shadow banning is rampant on both platforms for instance. The biggest problem is that the people in charge of subs, or the instances, are incapable of governing -maybe not the best word- and don't understand words. It's a complete shit show everywhere.
Where have all the edgy and factual comments gone? Victims to mod bias and their political leanings. In some instances, they don't understand what they are reading, or don't like it, and ban everyone and remove posts like they are getting paid for bigger numbers.
Wasn't Lemmy supposed to solve this problem?
If you see there's an issue with moderation, being able to confirm that by consulting a modlog, changes nothing. You already know the problem is there, so whats the additional "evidence" going to do? are you going to bring it to the same mod(s)? Start a riot in a different community about it to raise awareness? Ineffectual solutions at best.
You bring that to the admins of the instance.
Exactly. You can't do anything. You are at the mercy of the mods. If they have massive bias for something, the entire sub has massive bias.
Anyway, read my new book called "Chariots of the Mods", where i show how internet moderators actually pre-formed civilization before current recorded time
You bring that to the admins of the instance.
See what you did here got me banned from an instance. Copy / pasting the same comment.
