I’ve been noticing this more and more in the modlogs, with it proven via the “creator” option in some instances’ modlogs that the people doing the bans were mods and not admins, and when I first joined Lemmy, one of the things that were held as a universal truth was that this absolutely could not happen.
OP is talking about the mod @frenchfryenjoyer@lemmings.world. She simultaneously banned a few accounts from her communities and I won’t say I can blame her for not wanting to put up with a Kiwifarms troll with genocide denial and Nazi apologia in their post history. https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&modId=15038788
Leni/shinigamiookamiryuu and their alts (one of which, Jedikkeneus, is only 7 days old) tried to bait Frenchfryenjoyer into engaging with their community. I messaged her about this and she said she’s going to not take the bait.
OP’s question was asked very shortly after Frenchfryenjoyer banned them and their alts from her communities. OP might be another alt of Call Me Leni. The modlog looks suspicious. Modlog for OP’s account
Now, yet another one of Leni’s alts “PatrickStar” is requesting that another alt appoint them as a mod. https://lemm.ee/post/67572940/21488244
