After being harassed in multiple discord channels by powermod FlyingSquid the news mod blackbeard has shuttered his account and moved to bluesky.

"The recklessness with which people downvote polite disagreements reminds me of all the worst parts of Reddit, and it proves to me that this isn’t the social media savior I’d hoped it would be, and is instead just another echo chamber. I hope eventually lemmy.world (and the fediverse more broadly) can grow out of that, but some of the behavior I’ve seen on the inside from both mods and admins doesn’t really inspire much confidence for that kind of evolution in the short term. "

FlyingSquid is the same mod who has the power to siteban people from lemmy.world

Why does lemmy.world keep having issues with their powermods and admins? Why do powermods get the ability to siteban their enemies from the largest instance?

    Patently false and wholly unsupported, too? Tell me you’ve had irrational run-ins with said mod that somehow refused to react how you wanted, you know without saying it word for word, right?

      1 post, over a thousand comments, and defending World moderators. Why do these things always go together?

          Ah yes the nipple rubbing, the closest you can get to an admission of foul play while still playing the jester.

              It’s a South Park reference. I mean you’re really just admitting to me what I already know about how you use this site. You have meme reposts, Star Trek, the democratic campaign headquarters, anticommunism like it’s 1950, vote manipulation, stalking, harassment, and admitting you do all of these things.

              It’s not really kink shaming to point out the emperor has no clothes dawg.
