I keep getting banned from lemmy world by some power tripping mod. Solutions?

I think we need community forks. anyone who is willing to host it can copy the entire instance and all of the content and become the new mod.

but it would make more sense if lemmy was based on some decentralized data layer (like IPFS). Then you only need to copy the references, that makes it way cheaper to fork.

that would solve that issue.

Creating new accounts after being banned is usually against the rules. Why were you banned in the first place? Maybe take it up with the admins, we can't do anything here.

Can't do anything while banned so 100% i have to create a new account. Also mods seems very unlikely to talk, they just power trip in lw

Find a different instance to use as a 'home base' or run your own instance

Or maybe don't be a dick (if applicable)?

Pretty much covers all the bases.

Start your own community to replace the one you don't like the mods of, keep the content fresh to attract people to yours instead.

Ah yes, the asshole’s motto.

Do you not know what "ban evasion" is?

You get banned, and immediately make a new account named very similar to make posts about how you were banned in the places your banned...

So my first account was also a ban evasion?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The first account was banned in retrospect after the first 3 seemingly didn't care about community rules. Retrolemmy will not be the instance to house people who don't adhere to the community rules. If you decide to turn a new leaf I am prepared to unban your first account.

What community rule did i break?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Ban evasion for one. Creating 6 accounts is not the way. If a post doesn't go the way you hope just move on. It's not the end of the world, nor is it a reason to create half a dozen other accounts just to repost it again and/or complain about your ban.

If you do not like this, find an instance more accepting of your behavior. But Retrolemmy is not the place for you.

Basically you have no idea. Thanks for making my point stronger

Modlog is full of you and your alts. Don't patronize.

Obviously not, but considering you're having difficulty understanding basic rules that exist on every form of social media, there was probably a good reason for the first one.

Lemmy is the easiest to get away with it, but you keep making similar versions of the same username and immediately talking about how you're evading bans.

Like, it's hard to believe you're really not able to understand this, which would leave trolling as the only explanation for your behavior

I'm new to this fediverse thing, i bet you are super smart and understand everything

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Are you new to interacting with other humans too? Because a response like this is just solidifying the case against you.

Mods can't ban you from an instance, only a community, but the only suggestion I would have is just don't go to their communities?

It removes all my post from lw instance and shadow ban me. It's some bad coded script they use
