Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Also, mods are petty and will delete or ban you if you make a comment that goes against their agenda. Even when the comment has nothing but up votes.
The other day I got banned from A Boring [email protected] for providing verifiable historical context to the bombing of the MOVE cult. Not for taking a stance on either side of the issue, but just for fighting misinformation in the comments. I had like a 40 to 13 upvote ratio on a comment as long as a page, but the mod wants to marginalize and radicalize people so they deleted everything I posted in the thread.
Ironically, quite a boring dystopia indeed.
Did they remove the comment first or just ban you so the comment isn’t on the mod log?
The latter is one of the biggest flaws on Lemmy I’ve seen so far.
Just banned. They did delete one other comment, first, further down in the thread.
When you ban someone if you check the box to remove content it doesn’t add it to the mod log and that drives me nuts.
My last comment was in "comics" and was 9-0. I didn't agree with the "message" if the comic. Guessing the mod was the artist, maybe. Lol
