I don’t know who is the mod of that community, but I suspect it’s the OP of the post.

My comment was a list of problems I’ve had lately on Windoz, pointing how in my recent experience I lost more time there than on Linux for an equivalent use.

I don’t remember my exact words and now they are erased, but it went along the lines of:

I have to use Windoz for work, and lately I lost more time on it than on Linux:

I’ve had several problems with teams (audio input/output switching unintentionaly, main audio output not controlled by keys/shortcuts, freezing, not answering calls)
Copilot freezing the complete OS so that a reboot was necessary.
Unable to scroll in a Copilot thread.
Locked by Bitlocker after update.
Task scheduler losing a task after sleep.
…

So pretty much a list of actual issues I met, not exactly what I would call being an evangelist saying Linux is superior blablabla. I’ve no idea (OK, maybe I have). I simply stated facts.

Is it possible to see who the mod was? Is it a temporary ban?

It’s a shame because I precisely created this account on lemmy.zip to see all instances and communities. /shrug Funny.

Edit: sorry I forgot the post: here
And some formatting edit.

    agree. But mod decides what is appropriate for their group. even if they don’t hear any echoes because they are alone.

      Mods don’t need to decide this. That’s what voting is for. Moderation should be reserved for harmful or abusive behavior that damages a community or user in the short time before voting solves the issue.

        Well, in the absence of a higher power, such consensus-based practices are just your opinion about how things should be. This mod has been behaving like this for at least a year to my knowledge. I just avoid them.

        Not all voters are going to be community members. Lemmy has a large Linux fanboy contingent. Do they get to decide what communities are or are not allowed to exist in the fediverse?

        Let’s say that someone wants to make a community to post cute dog pictures. They create a rule that all posts must be photos of dogs. Someone comes along, does not read the rules, decides that a kitten is just as cute as a puppy, and starts posting cat pics. People browsing the new posts feed are not going to be paying much attention to community names, see a cute animal photo, and upvote it. The few dog die-hards downvote the posts, but not enough to get the score into the negatives. Are you saying the mod does not have a right to delete the photos for going against the spirit of the community?

          Sure. If people want dogs and cats together what’s wrong with that?

          If you want to run a forum as your private fiefdom then go do it somewhere private. Or maybe you should just write a blog if you just want people to read your opinions. Putting your community on the fediverse or other public platforms is by definition inviting the userbase to interact with, create, and curate your community. At that point it’s not your private creation anymore and it’s unreasonable to treat it that way.

            I think you are missing the point about all/new.

            IMO this is more about the desires of the community members than the mod themselves.

            In the example above. The community only wants dog photos. The larger Lemmy community browsing all/new upvotes shouldn’t override the rules of the community itself. On Lemmy, communities decide rules, not mods.
