r/Art has quietly gone into lockdown and is no longer accepting submissions after mods began facing severe blowback for banning @haydclay for mentioning the word “print” on the subreddit.

I don’t think Lemmy is any better. The other day, a Lemmy moderator didn’t like a video I shared about the potential collapse of the US and banned me from eight communities. As far as I know, the video wasn’t even AI-generated, so I don’t know where he got that idea from.

    OP is hawking AI art “prints” on an art subreddit.

    It’s weird but I’m with the reddit mod on this one, lmao.

    Reddit mods are power hungry assholes. This one specifically too. But you also broke the rules of the sub. When I was a mod of a small sub having to handle all sorts of people giving me attitude, I wasn’t paid enough for it.

    You weren’t like “oh sorry, I didn’t understand replying to questions with info about my work broke rule 9”. You were more like “how dare you”.

    Yeah I just lurk at Reddit and do my engaging here. Too many power addicted mods, and a worsening foreign influence problem.

    Not that we’re immune here, but it’s been a LOT more enjoyable to engage here than Reddit.

    I got permabanned from !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world for asking about the rules in the sticky thread for questions about the rules. Reddit power-tripping mods suck, but we should also be wary about tolerating the same sort of mentality here.

    It’s not a Reddit problem, it’s a human one. Like you also commented it happens here too.
