I noticed today an occurence of a user complaining about Lemmy being worse then Reddit. The modlogs shows how toxic they are. When this was pointed out, the user deletes their account

This seems to address the question that comes up once in a while "a public modlog is only useful for mods" (https://feddit.org/post/4920887/3235141), while we can see from this example that it can also be useful for toxic users.
As you may know, [email protected] is a community dedicated to calling out power tripping mods.
Should we consider having a similar community for toxic users?
There is already [email protected], but I feel like the "lore" is more about large-scale events (like the cats wave recently) than specific users events.
Edit: Updated the title, and put the emphasis on creating a community to call out toxic users rather than "dunking" on the users that was banned.
I'm still trying to figure out the other comment - I wrote out a long one but it won't let me send it, and anyway people don't want to read that much. So just responding to this one here:
DON'T do that. You are better than this. Nobody "makes" you do anything.
Also, you lead by example, not by arguing at people.
A few days ago I took a break from social media. It was... much more difficult than I expected, even for just one day. That dopamine addiction is real yo. Be careful. When I say that you might want to take a break, I don't mean that bc I actively want to shame you or whatever, but bc I legitimately think it may help. When you return, you will have a different focus - it will be fun again. Make sure to do something else in the meantime, like read books, touch grass, converse more with people irl. You won't regret it - at least, I never do whenever I've tried. Use social media - don't let it use you.
