Someone on [email protected] is (massively) removing posts with no good justification.

They have removed:

• Removed Post "Bloody backpack of Iranian girl killed in US-Israeli attack on Iranian elementary school.". This was an image of a bloody backpack. It was well within the rules of the pics community.
• Removed Post "Lemmy.today is absolutely beautiful" reason: Not a pic. IT WAS A PIC. The reason they gave is a lie. Absolute lie.
• Removed Post "Talking positively about this person, on reddit, gets you banned.". This was a post about Luigi Mangione. They don't even give a reason for the removal of the post. It was, also, well within the rules of the community.

And now they have removed 2 more posts:

• Removed Post Donald Trump's Parents. This was a post that had a lot of engagement, with over 100 comments.
• Removed Post Epstein mural in Sydney, Australia. This was also a post that had a lot of engagement, with over 100 comments as well.

And now they removed another one:

• Removed Post nothing is out of the ordinary, citizen. After all the other ones got removed, this one managed to get to 50 comments (not sure, but around that?) before being removed..

100 comments is quite a lot on lemmy. Removing such content is absolutely pathetic. Content is the one thing we need on lemmy.

It seems like they just removed any post that had a lot of comments. Any post that was driving engagement, they removed it. I wonder if someone is getting paid by reddit to eliminate engagement? Because this is what it would look like. And after everything we have learned these past few years, it would not be that out of the ordinary. Remember the whole Epstein/Ghislaine stuff and how these "elites" treat their competition....

There is no information on which mod removed those posts, but I am sure it was the same one, and I am sure that if you search for all of his mod actions, you will see many such removals. Mods going power hungry. I expected that to not happen on lemmy, but ya.

EDIT: I found out that the mod who removed those is /u/[email protected]. It can be seen here: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&actionType=ModRemovePost&modId=5313819

EDIT2: The mod in question has removed 2 more posts, both with over 100 comments. He is literally removing all the posts that are driving engagement. See here for the removed posts: https://goopics.net/a/5gcjy2dk. What the hell.

EDIT3: And another one was removed, one that had around 50 comments, if I am not mistaken: "nothing is out of the ordinary, citizen".

This is one of the most power hungry mods I have ever seen. Holly fuck.

I am looking for moderators for this community: [email protected].

There is really nothing to do, in fact, I have never received a report. I just want an active lemmy user to keep eyes on this community, just in case.

If you are interested, please leave a comment in this post and send me a PM.

I want to post a zine titled “40 Ways to Fight Fascists: Street-Legal Tactics for Community Activists” (link here: https://spencersunshine.com/2020/08/27/fortyways/).

Where can/should I post it? I suppose anarchy related subs?

You are free to post it anywhere if you want, of course. Don't wait for me!

I created [email protected] because I still find Lemmy a bit confusing. Since there are so many communities across so many servers, I never know where I should be posting certain topics.

The goal of this community is to help people find the right community to post specific content and, by doing that, hopefully, decrease posting friction and increase content.

Please subscribe and help people find the right community!

I know it may not seem like much, but I have had so many instances of content that I wanted to post but ended up just saying"fuck it" because I didn't know where I should be posting it. This friction multiplied by hundreds of people does make the difference!

EDIT: I am looking for 2 (or so) mods for this new community. If you are interested in modding, please let me know. There shouldn't be too much work. Just remove spam, if it ever happens.

Happy Pride Month my brothers!

May you be happy, may you be free, may you be healthy!

If you are in the EU, it would be nice if you signed this.

I highly recommend this book!

Here is a post in order to get this community more active.

How are you doing?

We have a new banner! Let me know what you think. It was created by ChatGPT.

If you have a better one though, I can change it.

Let's get this community more active bros.

What are some controllable attributes that you find attractive? What "green flags" do you look for?

Nowadays, we have pretty strong medications to avoid becoming HIV+. It is called PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis)..

Get on it.

I want to follow some people on tiktok, for the content they put out. I am, however, a somewhat privacy-minded person. Any suggestion on how to make TikTok less privacy-invasive? Some DNS app?

I am on Android, not rooted.

This is not exactly a new community, but it is one I created a few months ago and it is currently dead. Hopefully you guys help me with that:

This is a community for frisson inducing content.

What is frisson?

Frisson is a phenomenon that causes a sensation of chills or tingling on the skin of the lower back, shoulders, neck, and/or arms. It can be triggered by experiences with music, poetry, videos, beauty in nature or art, eloquent speeches, and the practice of science.

My straight crush is a friend of mine and is honestly.. fuck. wow. I just saw him, yet again, shirtless, in boxers and socks in front me. And wow. I.. I mean. Really. What am I supposed to do?

I just wanted to.. you know.

wow. Listen to this, seriously. wow.

Which is your preferred lubricant? Is it silicon based or water based? And exactly what lub?

For all scientists in the lemmyverse, I want you to know there is a lemmy instance dedicated to nature and science: mander.xyz.
