UPDATE: The Unbans are showing up on modlog now.:

I have traded the month-long ban in the many communities for a 6-day ban in [email protected], which is a more reasonable ban. this ban has also been lifted now. I appreciate the cooperation from the mod over this misunderstanding.


So it seems i’ve gotten a month-long ban in… over 30 communities across lemmy.dbzer0.com, sopuli.xyz, lemmy.ca, programming.dev, and several others, for this comment here.

Screen cap of comment for posterity:

It’s directly replying to a comment saying they can’t imagine why anyone thought otherwise about fish feeling pain, which is reasonable. You might notice the quotation marks, because it’s satirizing people’s mental gymnastics about fishes’ pain perception. It was meant in jest, exclusively.

It seems likely that a single mod took this joke wrong and chose to ban me on every community they have control over.

      Wow, they’re just blatantly banning people who said something they disagree with now.

        Lol ok powermod. PTB. Doubly so for banning over a comment on a totally seperate instance & community.

          It’s a vegan community. If I see users who are anti-vegan I don’t want them on my community.

          Some people go out of their way to antagonize the users on blahaj.zone or [email protected] defending their poor actions saying “Well its on all feed so I can make my unwelcomed comments and don’t you dare force your comm rules on me” without reading your sidebar rules.

            Cope, this was a mass ban for a fairly mild joke on a entirely different space and wasnt even touching your vegan community in the slightest.

            They very clearly were not on the vegan com at the time of the comment so the example given is a false equivalency.

            Petty reddit powermod behaviour.

            You’ve only walked this back as well due to the mass backlash stemming from this post.

                No not really, I’ve seen you pulling shit like this for a while now and the sheer number of popular communities you control is frankly concerning.

                This is exactly how we end up with a Lemmy version of awkward the turtle.

                  I admitted I wrong, I reversed the ban, I explained why it happened. Please stop with the assuming the worst, when I just wanted to have communities where I can post on my liked instances. I dont understand why this fascination of assuming the worst.

                  Please leave me alone.
