MODERATORS
As usual the mods made a unilateral decision without consulting the userbase, with vague criteria as to what will result in a ban(seems almost arbitrary based on individual mods from a scan of the log)
Obviously I'm not comparing the admin and mods here to reddit ones, I appreciate their labour in making my leftist shitposting site run smoothly and proactively crack down on bigotry, but honestly I don't think the phrase 'power tripping' is outside the realm of this conversation
This is nominally supposed to be leftist shitpositing site run with at least some democratic participation from the userbase, but time and time again the discorderati play at 'vanguard party' leading to long term users(obviously talking about those without chudy post histories) leaving and growth dyeing and struggle session that just sow animosity with rarely an actual improvement in site culture
I'm not sure which moderators and user base you're talking about.
hexbear's, didn't realise you were from another instance soz
