Maybe it's just me, but I never had that much of a problem with reddit mods. The only mods with which I had a problem, were tankie mods who had a problem with me calling them out on their mass murdering authoritarian bullshit

I came here because money hungry corpos fucked over my reddit client if choice and their official app sucks balls.

Reddit was easier because everyone pigeonholed themselves in subs they could exist in with minimum conflict. You wanted to be there. Jumping into All accidentally instead of your subscribed Front Page was often a surprise dumpster fire.

Lemmy is small enough that most participants don’t just stick to their subscribed communities, they go to All because there’s more to see.

Reddit didn’t have entire sets of communities banded together equivalent to an instance operating top to bottom with parallel internal ideologies that fanned out over the rest of the site and commented on everything. /conservative and /the_donald mostly kept to their kind, unlike here where grad and ml comment on things outside of their instance, or .world will find themselves commenting on a post from those communities. So some tankie will delete your comments if you rub the community the wrong way.

The latest posts on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com are about LW mods power tripping, not tankies

Yeah but that one lemmy.ml mod telling someone that they wanted to shoot them and that they hope they die soon (https://hexbear.net/post/3706906/5518427) goes so very much further than merely removing their comments - although they did that as well.:-)

I am not absolving Lemmy.World here of any offenses, but the DEGREE of what is claimed there does not seem remotely close to being equal to me.

I'm not telling lemmy.ml have perfect records, far from that, but I was just saying that LW mods also have their issues. Both things can be true at the same time.

Oh yes, true.

Although in this case I'm not against the mod who was simply doing what the instance admins instructed (the mistake being to have removed comments rather than locking the post in the first place, as she tells the story anyway). But if you meant admins then yes.

"Tankies", i.e. anyone left of center have been banned from reddit for the last decade. Weird that after that capitalism did its thing and made reddit bad ...
