A moderator deleted one of my posts for being off topic. I received no notification. It’s mere chance that I realized my post was silently removed, at which point I checked to modlog where a reason was given.
Users can filter sitewide modlogs on their own account to see the actions against them (great!) – but there should also be a notification.
Mods here, similar to on Reddit, seem to be the type that makes being a mod their whole world. They go on righteous crusades for their various causes quite often.
It is a stark reminder that the Lemmy janitors have the same delusions of power that the Reddit janitors had. With the massive population increase caused by an activity that made a lot of Reddit mods angry, you have a lot of that type here.
It is what it is. I just tend to ignore votes and censoring. Or more laugh at it.
Of my two dogs, the removed is my favorite.
