You were trying to convince me? I was already into it, hah, just looking for clarity. We were probably both just enjoying the debate (I hope.) I'm not trying to get anyone to switch sides.

Communities should be responsive to their userbase first and potential users second, so given that Lemmy isn't inherently authoritarian, the real issue is image. Then again, since we know Reddit uses bots, they supposedly censor lemmyganda, and they shut down r/lemmy, I question how authentic those opinions are. I mainly hear it's too complicated for people. But still, may the best platform win... or may people use whatever the hell they want because the fediverse is neat.

I have two communities on two platforms, I don't see any way to hide my username. On the site I think they all show up as "mod," but I can see all the mod names using lemmy with an app. But a user can still see what's been removed or what community they've been banned from, so they could contact anyone in that community for an explanation. Or, failing that, an admin. It's clunky and annoying, but doesn't seem intentionally obfuscating. Looks like the next update is going to fix the notification thing anyway.

Regardless, best of luck to both of us. The fediverse is still fun.
