The paper this article is based on is from 2009. I'd argue that's against rule 5.

I think it’s important to make note of the fact that they were banned on Reddit for good reason

Reddit is an echo chamber. Being banned there is not indicative of anything.

Are most ignoring the numerous examples of Reddit subs users inferred “likely won’t be a big deal” becoming obviously problematic down the line, with the inevitable ban/quarantine occuring with most upset it wasn’t dealt with from the start?

You've just explained how Reddit became an echo chamber which is the same road lemmy.world is taking.

we don’t know that denuvo ACTUALLY impacts sale numbers by convincing those mean old pirates to buy their game

But we do know it improves sales, that's why every game publisher that can afford it is using it. They have years of data to prove it. What do you have?

You're right, fixed.

 

I can see removed communities which, if I understand correctly, are the ones being deleted from the instance they are hosted in. But I know an admin can ban or block communities from other instances so they ~~wont federate~~ will be hidden from all users, e.g. admin from lemmy1.com banning lemmy2.com/c/foo. ~~Does the modlog show these actions?~~

edit: Admins can't defederate communities. They can remove them and that will hide them from all users.

My question now is how can I tell from the following line in the modlog as it appears in lemmy1.com if the community was removed from lemmy1.com or if it was removed from the hosting instance lemmy2.com?

admin Removed Community [email protected]

This same logic could be used to argue that the government forced people to get the covid vaccine.

Flagg Center Church? As in Randall Flagg?

Did you read the article? The title of this post is false.

[–] ram 15 points 11 months ago

The article doesn't say that. The title is false.

That claim is not on the article. Did anybody read it?

Have you ever used cheats on single player games when that was still a thing developers put in games? I did, it was fun. That's why.

I just wish people could stop with the namecalling. Yes, powertripping mods exist. Not everyone who stayed on Reddit is an awful person.

Not everyone, but most.
