![(Minor) Post asking for feedback on potential slowness on LW (where 36% of the Lemmy users are located) is removed from [email protected] as a "support question"](https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/5180ddd4-7ed1-49b1-8df7-dad95052536b.webp){kind=link}
Okay, this is definitely a minor case, but probably still worth reporting.

That question is useful for most of the people, as LW hosts 36% of the users base, and most of the active communities (https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active). Removing it as a support question seems questionable.
The most curious thing is that I investigated a bit, as LW still allows to show which mod performed which action (that how things worked in 0.19.3), and that removal has been performed by a mod that literally hasn’t performed any action in 6 months: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&modId=45389
Not wanting to put a tinfoil hat, but it’s still curious to me that that specific mod came out from a 5-months inactivity just to remove that one post highlighting potential issues with LW.
What do you all think?
The mod isn’t wrong, that should be in a support community not the ask community.
The issue with the support community is that you wouldn’t get feedback from people who left LW due to this (and there are a few examples in the comments).
The fact that it’s still up on [email protected] shows that it addresses a larger point than just “my instance is slow”
