Even with a modlog, the mods are clearly removing comments. I can’t tell you how many times I’ll click on a link that reads anywhere from 10-25 “more comments in this thread,” only for it to tell me there are no more comments when I click to load them.
I don’t know how bans work over here, but I have seen lemmings complain that they got banned temporarily, but never got any notifications of the ban.
It’s clearly better than what happened to Reddit, but there still seem to be some bad faith actors about.
Well yeah they’re going to exist everywhere. But with Lemmy you have some accountability. On reddit you have none.
As for bans with no notifications, that’s not on the mods. That is on the developers of Lemmy and why so many people are frustrated with them. They’re ignoring admins, have no real timeline on feature development, and aren’t focusing on major issues that have been reported. The Lemmy Devs keep dragging their feet and if they’re not careful it could end up with someone making a lemmy competitor that still works with Lemmy. I know I’d go straight for it as a mod and as a user.
