Next would be banning people for content on entirely different platforms. Say something objectionable on YouTube? Banned!
But I am guessing this must have something to do with managing Federated content. Was his other account getting pulled in somehow through the banned account?
I think that's the situation Salamander is arguing against. And I support him. But I also support that every instance should be able to moderate and administrate how they see fit - That's why I, as a user on a different instance, don't care about the ban itself.
But with the shared nature of federation, quite a few of the communities I interact with are on lemmy.ml. I'd very much like to know the rules so I don't break them, or if I find that I don't agree with them - so I can find or create other places to participate, instead of trying to change the fundamentals of already existing communities or instances.
