Either its no concern for the Lemmy community, then it should stay because it may be an issue for the fediverse in whole or its a concern then it shouldn't be deleted.

        Well, the OP made a brand new account just to post that, and immediately spammed it to like 4 different subs…

        They should have just contacted admins off their actual account.

        Like, whoever that OP was they didn't handle this well, and then getting banned doesn't mean admins are ignoring the issue.

          But if its a post with a new issue, it should be fine. 4 different subs isn't spamming. Just remove it in the sub where it doesn't belong.

            Was all 4 removed?

            Or did admnis do what you're suggesting they should have done?

            Besides, like I said the correct way to handle that is messaging the admins, not putting someone on blast on a bunch of different subs so people would harass them without knowing any details

            They were witch-hunt posts

              without knowing any details

              Did you read the comments?

              Well if you contribute to a project AND have very firm political standing you put yourself on public display and have to live with people commenting on it (no harassment of course).

              What do you even mean with admins? Like the other developers? They apparently seemed fine with it. Also this is a issue of the broader lemmy community, because we have an extremism problem. Its true that it didn't start with THIS developer. Silencing it like this is very problematic. Under the post were pretty interesting conversation going on about the broader issue.

                Maybe you should ask them?

                Like, I'm starting to think it was your alt that made those posts, if not then both of you don't understand how to address concerns to the admins.

                Or maybe you just want to argue with someone? In that case you'll need to find someone else too

                  Like, I’m starting to think it was your alt that made those posts,

                  This is so dumb but it DOESN'T EVEN MATTER FOR THE ISSUE AT HAND. Stop distracting (also: I think they are valid so why should I have made an alt?)

                  Or maybe you just want to argue with someone? In that case you’ll need to find someone else too

                  No, I'm done here

        Woah, that's pretty unexpected. I wonder if there is something else going on that we don't know about.

          I’ve gotten the vibe they are quick to ban boat rockers rather than have to deal with the wake.

          They removed the post for violating rules 1&2 which are be respectful and remain on topic. I didn’t find the post disrespectful or off topic so I would love to hear a mod explain their justification.

      Well they always were pretty radical, so that's nothing new … But now also the Lemmy community is turning more and more authoritarian (or it wasn't as apparent to me at it is now). That's why removing the post is really problematic. With this they seem to silence the extremism problem of the lemmy community, which (also never a secret) is partly due to the developers political standing.

    Seems like the suspicion that the developers political standing does have an influence over a services community (especially in the beginning) is becoming more and more apparent. Of course the developers political standing somehow influences which users the service attracts.
