    Lemmy is for picking your moderators, not having no moderators.

      I neither said nor implied that I want no moderation. In fact, that sounds way worse than what happened here.

      Second, whether that’s true about lemmy doesn’t preclude moderators from acting exactly like what everyone claimed to hate about reddit moderators, which is exactly what happened here. Mod didn’t like that I called out their claims, so they removed the post with the claim of “victim blaming” lol (which, of course, isn’t a violation of any rules).

        So you’ve had this experience on reddit, and here… At which discussion forum have you had your best experience with moderators?

            Hard to say. Good moderation is like air: if it’s there you don’t even really notice it, if it’s missing, everyone is miserable.

            But why does it matter? Does the fact that one place is better than another preclude any single moderator from doing a bad job?
