Just wondering what the limit is on rule 2 as I see things like covid vaccine effect questions, what scams are still around and other spicy topics. Don't want to make anyone upset but it seemed odd.

Oh I get the different instances and mods at play, and I would have made a similar post over on hexbear asking about it if the situation was reversed. I might feel my brain cells dying when reading stuff on the dunk tank but I still think people should be aloud to make posts.

the premise was bad and facilitated inflammatory interaction, just as with this post, and was removed. I don't see the issue here

Just with this post? What are you implying here?

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am implying that you're continuing an already dealt with problem, that being an unnecessary complaint about a necessary mod decision on another instance. What's up with that?

The point of places like lemmy is to do just this? I get we are just going back and forth here but I asked a question (that was answered yes) not make a complaint. I don't think making a complaint was wrong ether (hence the question). You can stop responding whenever you wish, as can I, and I don't have an issue with communicating with you but somehow you seem to find it a problem?

Lemmy isn't a place. It's software used by others to create instances that they want to see exist.

Sorry, what you are describing sounds like it could be done on a local copy of notepad.

You're no longer making sense. Either you don't understand the tech or you're just spouting nonsense.
