11 year old account deleted today. Final straw. (lemmy.ca)

Was banned from the sinusitis subreddit for telling (apparently a mod) that a deviated septum absolutely can cause a sinus infection. He got upset and banned me- and even denied my ability to respond to the ban.

Petty? Maybe. But that’s the final straw for me. I just finished deleting all posts and then the account. So sick of arrogant toxic mods.

True, but if someone were to be banned in one community they can always join and make comments in another similar Lemmy community (or similar magazine on kbin). If they get banned on one instance, they cam join another instance. The Fediverse makes it easy to still contribute even if one avenue is closed.

As far as I can tell, there hasn't been any moderator overreach on Lemmy/kbin. Maybe everyone is starting off on their best behavior. Or mods are aware that the atomized nature of the Fediverse means they have only so much power or influence. Also, it could just be the communities/magazines I'm in but there haven't been a lot of heated arguments.

People as a whole have been starting over and feeling out their place in things.
