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 is such a great analogy. All of my adult life I’ve listened to people bitch about how horrible HOAs are…and also people go running to complain to the HOA the instant a neighbor does something they don’t like. It’s funny how people want it both ways. “Rules for thee, not for me” is a contagion I guess.
