    I started a sub that had 400k users and was around for 10 years. /r/functionalprint

    After I made it read only, admins they just up and gave it to some rando mod that had no experience in that sub at all.
    So it doesn’t surprise me the mods of a lot of subs have absolutely NO experience in the subs they are modding.

    Screw Reddit.

    There are a ton of dangerous 3D printing happening. Especially people doing shit that’s pressurized.

      That was my favorite sub, and I’m really sad it didn’t take off on lemmy. I noticed it was back up on Reddit a few weeks ago and I thought about messaging you to ask if you put it back or reddit gave it to someone else. Fuck reddit.

      Hey, so it was you who banned me from that sub without giving a reason? How the turns wheel… 😒

        I very rarely banned people, and there was always a reason.

          Maybe some other mod then. I just checked the message log, no reason, no answer. Doesn’t matter now anyway.

    Imagine forcing the good mods that actually wanted to keep r*ddit from turning into a shit show to leave by getting rid of their 3rd party mod tools and expecting the replacements not to ruin everything.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
