Context: PugJesus often spams low quality posts across the dozen or so communities they mod, apparently downvoting low effort spam on my frontpage is trolling. The only other action in the modlog is a different ban for 74 years for “Mass downvoting innocuous content,” so it definitely seems they are just banning people that dislike their spam. Glad we’re not missing out on the reddit mod experience here.

    I’m not, I was viewing all. Sorry, “my frontpage” is probably misleading, I meant the all page on my device.

      Oh. Well, if you don’t want to see all, don’t go looking at all and then get upset when you see all.

        That’s pretty ridiculous, obviously one can want to see an uncurated list while still judging the value of individual items, that’s not mutually exclusive.

          Sure, you can totally do that… and also a mod can totally ban someone who mass-downvotes all the posts in a community (rather than simply block it or the submitters). Actually the ball is entirely in your court there to decide what you want to do.

          You may accept that you are going to be banned from communities that it seems you have no interest in seeing anyway, or you can start blocking them so that they do not show up in your All feed.

          “Block early, block often” is practically the motto of Lemmy.
