MODERATORS
Seriously, this is the least of its problems, but it certainly hints at them: https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/554307/Just-wanted-a-warning-Lemmy-World-is-perhaps-worse-than-reddit
Basically, they don't even follow the examples they set in their Terms of Service and will not only ban but purge your entire comment account on a whim because they didn't like the criticism they said they were open to on a post stating that "users may express their questions, concerns, requests and issues regarding the Terms of Service, and content moderation in Lemmy.World." There's no doubt, they were pretty clear they considered the criticism "disagreeing with the terms of service".
Create your user on another instance and save yourself the surprise of encountering admins who abuse their power on a whim. That can be your entire account history down the drain, and the number of comments or the age of the account won't matter to them.
This is exactly what I experienced when I was part of their top moderator and ban discussion discord channels. They would regularly ban people for little to no reason and then laugh about it and then realize they need to come up with reasons after the fact. This is also how they deal with defederation. They had defederated an instance more than once prior to having any concrete reasons to do so. They operate on gut feeling and disregard their own rules and ToS on the regular.
Not even Reddit is so unprofessional.
Well I still think it is a bit odd that you can't really explain why canthidium left your team. It's obvious there is more to this that you try to deflect from answering by going on about how everyone or everything else is the problem but you. And from canthidium's comments back then it looks like he just didn't want to deal with you anymore and that seems credible. Canthidium has some cooking related communities and they seem very chill.
And tell me, which of the defederation decisions didn't you agree with?
He left because he was sick and said he was going to be in the hospital and wouldn't have time. That is what he told me. That is a pretty gross thing to joke about if he is lying. We had little to know interaction outside of discussing what posts to make for what shows and only over a few days.
Feel free to ask them to provide every single private or public discord message I've ever made to them. I'm sure they would likely try to hide it as it would only make them look foolish at best and terrible at worse. They are not good people.
You can believe whatever it is you need to believe, but there is no way for you to convince me that I myself have done wrong when I know for a fact I have not.
It should be telling that they are the ones that try to hide things.
