Ban for upvotes is real here?
Recently I was simultaneously banned from a huge pile of "communities" with a mod commentary "for upvoting homophobic materials"(or "transphonic", I don't remember exactly). This kind of bans is the very reason why I quit Reddit. Is it normal here, or is it just some feral mod from Reddit?
P.S. Before you sidestep/offtop/ad-hominem here: no, I have nothing against LGBT folk and absolutely not interested in the theme.
You're viewing a single thread.
That most likely wasn't a moderator, but an administrator.
The ability to view votes in communities for mods is not available in the latest release of Lemmy yet. That will come in the next release, 1.0.0.Though I can't see any modlog entries for your account. Did you get instance banned and created a new account here?
It is
Adding ability for mods to view votes. (#3027)

Oh, didn't notice that. Thanks for the info. Regardless, it wasn't a ban from a moderator.
Yes, this is a new account.
Okay.
I assume your previous account was @Lembot_0001@lemm.ee, which was instance banned from lemmy.ml. The administrator was davel. You can try and ask him if it bothers you, maybe even appeal your ban. Your new account most likely will be instance banned again if you try and engage in lemmy.ml communities again, given your username is pretty much the same.
Honestly, we got lots of active alternatives to lemmy.ml communities, as the majority here hates lemmy.ml. Don't be surprised if you get banned from lemmy.ml again. Check out !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Arguing with moderators/administrators is mostly just a humiliating waste of time. I'll pass :)
Lemmy.ml has been known for arbitrary bans for a while; https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
You'll be fine on lemm.eeThat said, seems like you're a transphobe, so you'll probably get banned from lemm.ee as well
