so this CHEF-KOCH guy banned and deleted my comments from his community. I messaged to ask why and he blocked me from messaging him. He recently made a post in /c/linux and i am unable to comment on the post of any of the comments to the post.

Is this intended by the devs? It seems like it only functions to hinder discussion. Say this dude just started posting all over the place in different topics and such, they could effectively block anyone they don’t agree with which would just kill any actual discussion on any of these posts. It seems incredibly backwards when he is not the admin of those communities. Who is he to say who gets to comment there?

    Because you (like me) had the audacity to answer on a comment on his protonvpn advertisement where he spread FUD around wireguard. I tried to correct the points that where just plain bullshit in some back and forth and at some point he went on and said

    This thread here will also not a bashing or fanboyism or what is a VPN discussion, or I will lock the conversation. [sic]
