I don’t even know what to think about this one. I’m not angry, more confused than anything. There’s only one mod there so i asked them, and they said “It’s against policy. It’s the abbreviations policy.”

I see no such policy anywhere, so who knows what’s going on. Is it only the NYT that can’t be abbreviated? What about the US? Is LOL forbidden too? And if so, why are we forbidden from laughing there!

They didn’t even remove the comment.
The mod is user qrstuv. Maybe the only abbreviation allowed is when they say one? That’s a power trip!

    Yeah but… if you’re aware of the difference, why block an entire instance over one mod’s actions?

      Give it a rest. Find something else to nitpick to death. You’re not being clever.

        They’re not trying to be clever. They’re saying your prior actions weren’t logical. You shouldn’t block instances for what mods do. You should block communities. If everyone blocked instances so swiftly then the fediverse will become little islands.
