The power mods are bad, yeah, but I don’t entirely blame them for anything. They’re unpaid labour, and doing something that no one should be doing for extended periods of time, let alone without compensation. No wonder they’re totally unhinged.
(Which is why I don’t create new Lemmy communities because, oh shit, I’d have to moderate them, and, well, urgh.)
Yeah but they’re just delirious poor bastards at this point. Can you really blame them? Reddit gives them no break. They haven’t given them a break for decades now. …hell, if Reddit tells them to remove shit, they just do it.
I’ve moderated unrelated web stuff for a bit and I can’t fathom how anyone can volunteer moderate stuff for extended period of time across a bunch of forums. Poor sods. Should have unionised or something.

They’re just as bad for removing content for seemingly no reason. Often times they do it silently so you have no idea your post was removed.
