@[email protected] why was @[email protected] site wide banned for posting generic vaccine news articles then? You said there was no anti vaccine policy at Lemmy. Look at that account it broke no rules. If people get banned for following the rules admins make why should anyone trust this platform?

I can't see the account activity and it doesn't make any sense to ask for proof of no trolling behavior. I will assume you are correct that there was no trolling. Was that your account?

I do know that mods have to make calls like that all of the time and I haven't seen anything to make me think that ours aren't working in good faith. I don't always agree with decisions that are made, but the job is difficult and voluntary.

Even better, the mods on this instance don't have to power to stop a person from interacting on Lemmy by joining another instance or even creating their own. We are free and encouraged to find a place that welcomes us.
