MODERATORS
So I have to ask why was this post which asked what is a decent client for Debian removed (per rule #3):
https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/1681507
while at the same time this “What's the best Android/iPhone app for Lemmy?” is not removed? Is it because the moderator created this thread & thus /above the law/, in effect?
The moderator got tired of deleting multiple threads a day about mobile apps and as a compromise created this topic. It's technically outside of the rules of the community but we only have so much mod bandwidth.
I removed the Debian thread because it's about using Lemmy, a question that fits better in a support community (or a OS-specific community) rather than here. If you'd like to start a topic discussing interfaces, go for it.
So yes, at the end of the day, a moderator call based on the community rules and trying to do what's best for this community. Believe me, there are far better ways to get a power kick than modding this community.
