I just realised, I can't post anything on lemmy.ml

So, I checked https://lemmy.ml/modlog, there's a new moderator.

All posts and comments talking about China, Jinping, Russia, and Putin have been deleted and users banned

I’m not shure how to read the modlog.

Visit the instance in question, for example https://lemmy.ml/
Scroll to the bottom or Ctrl+PgEnd, click on "Modlog": https://lemmy.ml/modlog (as you see, you can also just append /modlog to the URL)
Filter by action, or filter by user. For example, enter your own name to see if you have been banned

This way, I just found out I've been banned on lemmy.ml for this comment which surely is snarky, and technically disrespectful. They did not ban Krause (parent comment). So I guess spreading lies is fine as long as you do it "respectfully". Speaking up to that gets you banned.
