I got banned from reddit (honestly feel a lot better without it)

But I miss being able to answer stupid questions and relationship questions.

Lemmy is great, but why aren’t there that many people on here? I don’t get it.

An I using my filters wrong or something?

    I know! Like it’s annoying. If a question asks something like "who’s the worst person " there’s always some Donald trump comment. Like I came here for fun man

      This user seems to have been banned from the instance for this comment with the reason “No trumpites allowed”. Could I get some clarification on how this decision is made? As far as I can tell, it was a totally arbitrary decision with no basis in the code of conduct. For that matter, they are not necessarily a Trump fan, since many people simply dislike how Trump-centric political discourse has become.

        yeah it’s weird, they didn’t even get a warning? What kind of moderation is that??

        Also yeah the comment is somewhat ambiguous I think.

        Also came to realize it just now. The log mentions ‘mod’ instead of ‘admin’ if any of that helps.

        Because the admins here are thin-skinned children who do not practice what they preach.
