- qzx_pierri 3y agoThis is what will eventually happen. The moderators who do it for free almost always crave power and are extremely biased. Most subs are a cesspool of arbitrary bans and overt condescension. Mods will often lock threads if it fits within the sub guidelines, but supports a topic they don’t like. They’ll find a small argument somewhere in a comment chain and lock the thread, leaving behind a pinned comment such as “Locking the thread since you all refuse to behave”. It’s ridiculous. Especially since arguments spanning hundreds of comments are often allowed if the mods dislike the person/topic being dunked on.
- local_crmdgeon 3y agoWe're both being downvoted but you're absolutely right. These are core issues and spez finally seems to be addressing them. I wonder if the crowd going to Lemmy is the Merari set - if so that's a huge potential improvement for Reddit and a curse for Lemmy. "Y'all can't behave" is such a weird meme, it's so patronizing.
