I think they just removed my post. I don't think it broke any rules?

Hi there, I hope you were able to catch some of the other comments but memes are captured under rule #3:

Describe images/videos: Please provide an explanation in the self-post body when sharing images or videos. Memes are not allowed.

Sorry for the late reply, I was away for much of the weekend until yesterday and thought we had gotten a reply out to you. Based on this discussion, we created !androidmemes@lemdro.id as a compromise between folks who want memes and those who do not. We've been aiming to find a balance between being more lenient during this period while also remaining responsive to user reports, which we did receive for yours.

You can typically find an explanation of the removal reasons in the modlog (when accessed from the community sidebar). Unfortunately, Lemmy doesn't seem to be handling user notifications too well but hopefully this improves in the near future.

Edit: Apologies for the multiple posts. App went haywire on me... Lemmy growing pains!

I feel bad for you. Deleting a post which has already has a around 250 points, and around 60 comments SMH. Either delete them early or write a comment warning.

My points keep getting reset every couple of days, so I don't care too much about that. I think I was making a valid point though. Obviously people were pretty engaged with it.

Cool thing about lemmy is if these mods want to be jerks, I'll just go to another android community on another instance.

This is exactly the kind of shit I was worried about when people were talking about attracting reddit mods to Lemmy.
