Lol. I think you got banned from Ye Powertrippin' Bastards by that db0 dipshit right before I did.

It's literally a sub for complaining about power tripping mods and that dipshit is going through it banning people he disagrees with. The irony is supreme.

I went to his profile and he describes himself as an "Epicurean Revolutionary Libertarian Socialist", which had me rolling. How can he take himself seriously?

    Yep I am fairly sure we're talking about the same person. Lol

    They banned me from countless subs. I actually at that point realized I never have good experiences with that instance so I went ahead and blocked it.

    Yeah, his name is literally "db0" because he's on the dbzer0 instance. Guy's a creative powerhouse. It had to have been him that banned us because the one other listed mod hasn't been active in a few weeks.

    Lemmy's great, but it's unfortunate how many popular subs are moderated by a single basement dwelling sad ass powertripping loser. They kill a significant portion of this platform for anyone that doesn't want to slurp their shit up.

    And yeah, I'm about to hit my 2 year mark on Lemmy and I can confirm that all these losers are coming from the dbzer0 and ml instances. They are a blight on the Lemmiverse. Same vibe I used to get from /r/conservative and /r/The_Donald. Just pathetic losers.

    Yeah, I think Lemmy can be great, but there's a non-zer0 percentage of users here who are too self righteous and condescending to talk to. You have to wonder if they ever talk to anyone outside of lemmy. Some of them seem hellbent on destroying American democracy. And then some people are just viciously rude. I started liberally blocking users, communities, and now an instance. It improves the experience a lot. I don't know what the percentage of absolutely impossible users is, but it's higher than I would've guessed. It's like everyone like that who came here from reddit decided they still needed the conflict and vitriol so they just recalibrated to direct it at people who slightly disagree with them whereas they probably used to direct it at Nazis/conservatives.

    Oh definitely. They're the "destroy instead of fix" crowd. Like children. Children who don't get that doing something like that causes MANY people to suffer/die and that you could, and likely would, just end up with something worse. They don't care, because they're immature, reactionary shitstains.

    It’s like everyone like that who came here from reddit decided they still needed the conflict and vitriol

    I think a major commonality with Lemmy users is being temp/permabanned from Reddit, myself included. It's an awful platform run by awful people so a lot of the bans are genuinely unwarranted. But I have to assume that a lot of those people were banned for good reason and then they end up here with the same personality that got them justifiably banned from Reddit.

    Yeah, I find it hard to know if those shit stains are truly that fucking stupid, or actually malicious. It's gotta be a mix, but either way it's enraging and discouraging.

    I'm sure you're right with your Reddit ban leading people here theory. I've thought the same thing myself.
