I’m trying to work out why there are posts in here about users being banned from communities, when neither the user or the community are under their control. Is this being mirrored from somewhere, or is this something that’s limited to what people on their instance see?

They are also, apparently, banning users that have never been to their instance.

    It shows up per default because it affects you. If you like a filter, feel free to file a feature-request on Lemmy’s Github.

    Make sure to include a proper description of what you’d like and why. Otherwise I doubt it’ll get accepted as it makes the modlog a bit counterintuitive to use. Things that affect you everywhere won’t show up just because of their place of origin. That might be unwanted on a federated platform. But feel free to disagree, just include your argumentation and let the developers decide.
