- Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
Snoopy
- What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
Community ban
- Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
- Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/ comment that was removed, or got you banned).
I woke up to suddenly being banned with a dm that was misgendering me. It appears the real reason I was banned was due to fact I was critical of Piefed’s recent actions.
Snoopy has no evidence that “I personally released the exploits into the wild" It was actually @yogthos@lemmy.ml who did the deed. I’m not technically enough to be pull it off, nor do I want to.
- Explain why you think it’s unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Hopefully unbanned and unblocked.
I wonder if they know it’d trigger a mass exodus from piefed. While they have many solid communities, the vast majority of their users are there also for federation with communities on world and db0. Defederating them would probably cause uproar when even there I’m sure most of their users see it as a personal spat.
Its why rimu only blocked db0 instead of full on defederating, which even I told rimu directly defederate if he disliked db0s admin policies so much. The fact that he hasn’t I think shows that they know it’s not as bad as they keep trying to claim.
There are actual hate and horrifying instances that us admins insta-defederated from. They’re trying to put regular admins on the same level, but not defederating proves that it’s all in their heads.
Honestly, instances should just start defederating them at this point. There’s a ton of harassment from them and they clearly don’t act in good faith.
I honestly didn’t think there would be worse mods than those on world but these last few weeks have certainly proven me wrong
Indeed, the whole project, and everyone associated with it, feels deeply malicious.
That’s rich coming from the person who publicly posted potential exploits and put thousands of users at risk.
Given that it took all of five minutes to find those exploits, those users were already at risk. I didn’t reveal any information that anyone couldn’t get by cloning the repo and throwing an LLM at it.
