Rimu published yet another hit piece against the /0 instance and this time posted it in his own instance comms as well. One of his mods jumped in, admitted they don’t know anything about anything, but nevertheless felt confident enough to state their opinion as fact and in the process insult all of us collectively, then stickied his opinion for good measure.

So I decided to reply sarcastically, at which point that mod insulted me and locked the thread, which is apparently a feature in piefed which simply hides/deletes further replies in that thread, but since it’s not a feature in lemmy, it appears to function like a shadow delete.

This is what my last reply would have been.

(Yes I’m being snarky, but that “I’m so mature” bullshit just rubs me the wrong way.)
In my opinion, using mod powers to get the last insult in, is just bastard behaviour.


Your comment is not about the post, though.
Literally about the first link in the post.
Literally about what is being commented on (the post where the reply is), and not the comment itself (and whether or not those comments break the rules, making action appropriate)
I think you’re misunderstanding the intent of what youre quoting.
no, the post is literally about mod actions. the post is literally not about generative AI. you need to literally learn what the word literally means.
For being so concerned about discussions being on topic yall sure seem to enjoy taking discussions even further off topic.
I don’t care about the discussion being off topic. I’m not a mod.
That refers to whether that mod action was relevant, not to rehash any subject. If I got a comment removed from a post about the Gaza genocide, it doesn’t mean that YPTB can become a place to rehash the Gaza genocide
And if this post was a result of you or your mods having bad positions on Gaza, I would have brought it up as well. As far I can tell we agree on Gaza and I didn’t find it necessary to congratulate on being correct about something.
There’s some leeway to bring up the post on what triggered the mod action, in order to ground one’s position on the mod action, but rehashing the whole arguments is out-of-scope for this comm
Not sure what to tell you. I’m not breaking any written rules here.
