I just realised, I can't post anything on lemmy.ml

So, I checked https://lemmy.ml/modlog, there's a new moderator.

All posts and comments talking about China, Jinping, Russia, and Putin have been deleted and users banned

Is this a mod or modteam of a few communities, or is it a global mod outside of community mods?

I'm not shure how to read the modlog.

I’m not shure how to read the modlog.

Visit the instance in question, for example https://lemmy.ml/
Scroll to the bottom or Ctrl+PgEnd, click on "Modlog": https://lemmy.ml/modlog (as you see, you can also just append /modlog to the URL)
Filter by action, or filter by user. For example, enter your own name to see if you have been banned

This way, I just found out I've been banned on lemmy.ml for this comment which surely is snarky, and technically disrespectful. They did not ban Krause (parent comment). So I guess spreading lies is fine as long as you do it "respectfully". Speaking up to that gets you banned.

Well, it seems to me that all of the removed posts seem to be accompanied by valid reasons as to why they were removed. Maybe it would help if people read the actual posts/post titles that were removed instead of bandwagoning on dumping on lemmy.ml.
