I sent the MOD this message:
Hi XXXXXXXX, I just noticed that you banned me 2 hours ago from c/Science for Spam. I am confused. I mostly lurk and haven’t commented or posted anything in several months. I definitely don’t post ads or spam. Can you please let me know what happened?
The only reason that I noticed that I am banned is that I watched that (long-ish) video about Brainrot on the feed and the top comment is asking for a tldw.


Uh. And it’s a permanent ban. Not just a temporary timeout for a minor offense… I’d take it as an invitation to switch to different Science/Ask/Open-Source communities on different instances. Might be an improvement anyway. (I mean I myself diversified my subscriptions and left most lemmy.ml ones a long time ago.)
