I noticed today an occurence of a user complaining about Lemmy being worse then Reddit. The modlogs shows how toxic they are. When this was pointed out, the user deletes their account

This seems to address the question that comes up once in a while “a public modlog is only useful for mods” (https://feddit.org/post/4920887/3235141), while we can see from this example that it can also be useful for toxic users.

As you may know, !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com is a community dedicated to calling out power tripping mods.

Should we consider having a similar community for toxic users?

There is already !fediverselore@lemmy.ca, but I feel like the “lore” is more about large-scale events (like the cats wave recently) than specific users events.

Edit: Updated the title, and put the emphasis on creating a community to call out toxic users rather than “dunking” on the users that was banned.

    Lemmy is worse than reddit though. Especially if you don’t block .ml.

    Though they have predictably gotten quieter now that the election is over.

      Which is worse depends a lot on how much you weight each of their flaws. Personally I think that Lemmy still behaves better than Reddit, even considering that Lemmy behaviour is getting worse over time.

      So, focusing solely on aspects where Lemmy is worse than Reddit, IMO:

      • witch hunting
      • intrusive soapboxing
      • bossing others around with uncalled advice

      I’m not trolling about the elections these days, maybe that’s because my frontpage isn’t 100% trump-related spam. I don’t care about the US, why should I be exposed to you people cultural imperialism? Keep that shit to yourself.

      It was hillarious to see dumb americans astro-turfing the lemmyverse with their election bullcrap, only to be exposed to opinion from foreigners and then whining that everybody you don’t like is a russian spy. Follow the western neo-lib line or get called Igor (yeah coz they’re also racists).

      But hey, count on the idiots to passively eat cold-war era propaganda.

        Worldists are neoliberals genocide apologists, they censor as much shit as any “tankie” instance and if there was any justice the mods would be in jail.
