    One thing I don’t like over here on Lemmy is that when a mod action happens against you you don’t get a notification of any kind. So unless you check the mod logs you’ll typically never know something happened.

    NGL I’m half tempted to make a bot that crawls the mod logs to tell people when something happens to their posts or comments.

        Presumably it’d interfere with .ml etc censoring dissenting (i.e. sane) opinions, which is why it’s not happening. Same as how instance blocking was like pulling teeth

        On the sidebar of every community in lemmy-ui is a link to the modlog. For example, here’s a screenshot of this community’s sidebar:

        Unfortunately on Jerboa I couldn’t find any way to get to the modlog. Don’t know about other apps.

        You can also navigate to /modlog on your instance. e.g. https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/modlog. Unfortunately it’s not very easy to use, and it’s not always clear. For example, when I loaded the page, one entry I saw said “mod Banned @TransFormer78@startrek.website”. Which mod? Why, what did they do? Where have they been banned from?

        Another entry when I look at the modlog from my instance says “mod Banned Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com from the community News@lemmy.world reason: advocating assassination expires: 4 days ago”. Mostly great, I know who was banned and from where and why. I still don’t know who did it, but whatever. The only catch? The ban was issued 2 hours ago. Issued 2 hours ago but expired 4 days ago? Huh?

        I’m glad it exists, but I rarely look at it. It’s just not practical to use most of the time.

    I also got banned from all the .ml stuff.

    It’s a badge of honor.

    Here my comment that triggered their mod:

    i just looked at ml’s modlog to see what comment got you banned and it was “Tankies gonna tank.”

    While I was there I saw someone talking about how they thought AI art was acceptable if someone doesn’t have the spare time or money to dedicate time to getting good at art so that they can make a game people won’t reject because the art is ugly, and had an entire thread worth of comments with several paragraphs each pulled and burned because they disagreed with the moderators

      Extreme fragility is another thing they have in common with the far-right authoritarianism fans.

      A warning I guess. I didn’t realize some of the communities were on .ml, which is the devs “flagship” instance so they ban people for saying stuff like “tankies gunna tank”.

            Yeah, since v0.19.0.

            You basically never see anything that comes from lemmy.ml. Some instances like hexbear are worthy of being blocked by everyone. Though afaik most instances with sane admins have already long defederated with them so yeah.

        Why not just stay away from lemmy.ml then? You can start the same communities on another instance. It would be like me going to a Nazi instance and pointing out that they ban anyone that celebrates diversity. Like, yeah… that’s what they do. It’s in their ethos.

      Not exactly, it was reply to a reply that was pointing out the unsound logic of another user saying Russia will invade Turkey if Turkey invades Israel or something like that. It was basically a satellite comment affirming that users position of how stupid that is.
