My thing is vitriol should be allowed. Some people deserve vitriol. Same for trolling. Sometimes trolling is funny. Mods get carte blanche to decide what goes. I’m not trying to pretend to be Mr Rogers to keep from getting banned.
I searched Lemmy in the app store. I didn’t (and still don’t) understand why there are a bunch of third-party apps that connect to Lemmy. But it seemed like Voyager was popular, so I went with that.
Okay. I don’t quite understand instances yet, but I think I see what you’re saying.
Are mods here terrible too?
Just started Lemmying today. Have lots of questions. Someone mentioned mod logs, so I went down a rabbit hole reading mod logs. The only reason I left reddit was because many mods are dicks. But reading the logs, it seems mods ban people and censor like crazy here too. Isn’t Lemmy supposed to be more free and open? How is this different from Reddit? I honestly don’t understand.
This climber made a video of herself being cool with all her cool friends and it was a blatant advertisement for goodr sunglasses. I made a comment and got permabanned. Now, if the climber was not a hot chick, but instead some fat, gumby, neckbeard advertising, I doubt the mod would’ve been so quick to give me the boot for calling him out
I take it there’s no Lemmy app?
Brand new to the platform. Just wondering if I have to use my browser each time. Thanks. Ps. F reddit mods
