The moderator got tired of deleting multiple threads a day about mobile apps and as a compromise created this topic. It's technically outside of the rules of the community but we only have so much mod bandwidth.

I removed the Debian thread because it's about using Lemmy, a question that fits better in a support community rather than here.

So yes, at the end of the day, a moderator call based on the community rules and trying to do what's best for this community. Believe me, there are far better ways to get a power kick than modding this community.
