Seriously, 90% of Reddit mods are on a power trip, they permanently ban you and mute you instantly at the slightest transgression or if they just don’t like you. Also, everyone single one of them claims to be one of the good ones, lol.

Sweeping generalizations are never good or correct.

90% of mods did non obvious work like stopping spammers from overrunning subs.

If you think they all ban for fun then the problem is you.

Most mods tend to follow the quantity of reports they receive from the community. If you post something that triggers lots of random users… then you are screwed.

And yes, that also happens on Lemmy… as much as folks around here consider it as a “holy ground filled with saints”. :^)

t. A mod threatened to ban me because I was “spamming” – while I was posting once per day.

Ah, but when a subreddit had mostly mods from that 10%,

AskHistorians, AskScience, WhatIsThisThing, etc.

Maybe this is another example of Sturgeon’s law.

Don’t know, I stopped visiting WhatIsThisThing after an encounter with a really trippy mod that handed out bans like candy. But maybe they got kicked and striped of their role

That’s the case for every sub with a political undertone.

Most subs for your favourite hobby is usually nice. Unless your hobby is US politics, believing walking dogs 5 hours a week is a job, or inventing a patriarchal society to tear down.

If the system wasn’t a patriarch, why do we call it “The Man”?
