There are powertripping mods and admins on Lemmy but the fediverse makes sure that that is not the problem.

Let me get this straight, you’re saying that powertripping mods aren’t a problem, because you could technically have the same content on a other instance, but you think a single downvote is a problem?

What’s the alternative here? You’re so against the downvote being used as a disagree button, so do you think OP should’ve just openly commented their disapproval? How do you think this would’ve ended vs a powertripping mod?

If all choices you can make to show disapproval result in bans, is it your fault, the powertripping mods fault, or are you saying we should just shut up and take it?

He politely asked you to avoid some language at his channel.

Let’s be clear - the mod asked that OP not downvote the mods comment asking another commenter to avoid using the word bro. OP never said bro.

Confrontationally DMing someone for a downvote is wild.

I wonder what a SIM modem expansion card would look like
