Comment on Lemmy moderation is frustrating as hell
david@feddit.uk 8 months agoI’m happy to let mods carve out a bunch of niche communities with their own preferences. The fediverse is a big place. If you don’t like instances that are protective of LGBT+ folks you’re cutting it down a bit, but genuinely, you seem to be deliberately picking topics that troll the specific community you’re posting on, then you complained that they took it down. Post where your post will be welcome, stop complaining when you post where you already know it’s not. Reddit and twitter are pretty right wing and troll friendly. Maybe you’ll be happier there.

I hesitate to do this because I don’t want to get the post removed, but here are the memes that were taken down. Judge for yourself if they’re bigoted or as light-hearted as I think they are: imgur.com/a/8oNroeo

Anyone who is offended by these needs to calm down and remember that it’s ok to not take everything so seriously.
None of these are hateful in any way. The one about mods definitely has some targeted sass to it, but that’s pretty light.

The mod one is also a critique that you’ll see of every mod everywhere. It’s not new, it’s not (too) specific. It’s a generalization that’s quite often accurate. Clearly whoever took it down knew they were being petulant.

No one is offended by anything, mods are just choosing what content they want in their community.
