Why would you say that when anyone can check the modlog and see it isn’t the case? You were banned from one community for one month.

ETA: Oh, sorry: two communities for one month, which happened two weeks apart.

ML definitely plays games with the modlog. More than one of my bans never showed up there at all, and this was confirmed by other users on my instance who could still see my posts after the shadowban.

That is a bug that affects all Lemmy instances.

[–] socsa@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well then which is it?

[–] davel@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 week ago

I was talking about the missing modlog entries. When you ban someone with the “Remove Conent” option, sometimes the post(s)/comment(s) don’t show up in the modlog. The only time we intentionally completely disappear (“purge”) something is if it is something objectionable in the extreme, like CSAM. Personally I’ve not yet needed to use it.

If users on other instances were able to see something that had been removed, that was because the removal request hadn’t propagated to their instances yet, or never arrived at all. We can’t make other instances remove things, we can only send requests that they do.

Which one were they banned from?

[–] Diva@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

hilariously they took a temp ban from /c/Linux, but just scrolling a little further they also just got a perm ban from NCD for " you don't fit in here" because they mentioned the historical (and ongoing) American mistreatment of their indigenous population in a different thread

I guess just being russiophobic isn't enough to fit in with those types

Can't say America bad in NCD, can't say China bad on .ml

Them's the breaks. Not sure what any of this has to do with privacy though

[–] Fades@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

At least NCD is a snark/meme community and not a whole ass instance lol

I can't say too much against them though. I'm only banned from the comics ml instance myself.
