Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
Rimu
What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
Kicking from all Matrix PieFed rooms
Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Rimu has been manufacturing non-stop drama for weeks. He ignores multiple offers from multiple parties to de-escalate, and now he bans someone for trying to promote non-discriminatory language. He has also now cut off a PieFed admin from any and all support and ability to contribute to the software.
Oh and the real kicker ? Rimu did all this after his big grand post about how he is stepping back from drama and hiding away from users.
Because us developers, we are just a couple of nerds on the Internet. We didn’t study public relations or politics at university, and don’t know which spontaneous comment might generate a shitstorm. Unlike /u/spez we don’t have a PR team writing posts for us. And because there is no profit motive, Lemmy and Piefed don’t need to appeal to everyone like Reddit does. Consider it the price to pay for using a non-commercial platform.
