A safe space to report and discuss the daily abuses of power that occur on the Lemmy.
For the record I was posting in support of inclusive language, but pointing out that context and convention matter.
They seem to have even scrubbed my comment from their instance, lol.
I don't even like IKEA.
I think it's really easy to construe "get over it" as dismissive of a marginalized group's concerns. That's how it comes across to me. If it needs context to seem less so, it could probably use better wording.
Stop downvoting this dude, they're not wrong, it's a reasonable take and true in hindsight.
who cares. some of these communities are trash who don't allow you to participate if you don't align with their views. no different than reddit.
OP's complaint is that he was not aware of the ban so he was commenting into nothing.
This is really software issue, they can ban him, and he can block them back. No problem at all.
The issue is that these servers are blocking new people and they might get pissed about not knowing it. This is UX issue for fediverse.
On top of it, these bans are arbitrary and capricious for the most part, so again, this will piss anyone who does know how fediverse works.
We got 50k AMU, with too many mods with nothing to do, so they find busy work.
How did you verify that?
The modlog confirms the ban, and there's another comment chain on this thread that explores the pseudo-shadowban part.
I didn’t know if the mod log was replicated among instances or not. I was always curious how you’d know if another instance banned you.
