      He’s a piece of shit but he didn’t mod that sub, he was added by another person back when you could just mod anyone you want.

      I hate Reddit now and what he’s done to it, but I also hate misinformation.

      How large in scale is the ban wave? Reddit is a big site so even if some communities get banned not much people will care and even less will know about lemmy.

          North America! I don’t have the same problem on other instances. I just started going more to the source for stuff instead.

    Looks like they’re banning unmoderated subs and it looks like they’re being unbanned with moderators responding. Looks like response time is 2 weeks.

    I mean reddit sucks but this is a nothing burger of a story.

      They denied two requests, I’ll follow up on the most recent one just because I’m curious.

      Might be nothing indeed, we’ll see.

      Even if they restore the sub, this post would still evidence that they struggle to find moderators.

      I updated the title to be a bit more accurate.

    Was this “Unmoderated” in the sense of the classic Reddit move of first banning the moderators so they can ban the sub without saying why?

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
