To be honest the issue is more about the power tripping than politics. Banning someone from the Arch Linux community because they disagree with you seems strange
Yup. There were power tripping mods on Reddit, too. Except there, you’d be out of luck. On here, you can go to other instances, like communities on programming.dev or something.
Because there the name was immutable. Here, you can take the name with you. You don’t have to make up some secondary related name that has significantly lower SEO value (for lack of another way to describe).
Even more interesting with admin powers of your own instance. You can reverse shitty mod decisions locally and make your own decisions on evaluating if what they said if it’s actually a problem or just overzealous moderation. Also means you get to see what mod took the action. Also looking at votes (which you could see as a kbin user).

That’s the beauty of lemmy though - there is probably another community for the same thing on a different instance.

To be fair you could’ve made a different subreddit but somehow this feels different

And people believed they’d escape the days of power-tripping mods by exiting Reddit.
At least with the festive there are no alternatives.
Like that new neame
I appreciate the mod log here because at least you can see the receipts
