Is fediverse turning into reddit?

Communities and the volunteer mod system are the same, so that should hardly be surprising. If it gets really crazy, like this, I recommend moving to a new community of your own accord.

Here’s the offensive “bro” speak. What a loser.

Not at all. Reddit is popular.

You're lucky
I got banned with no warning or even indication what post was offensive (I was not being anything-phobic or inciting violence)
But that was lemmy.ml so I should have known

It's a troll...
Piefield.social sprung up overnight, and when I tried to comment on a post I realized I had been instance banned almost as soon as the instance was created.
It's also super hard to see stuff in their modlog, or even who their admins are, let alone how many actual use it.
So that message is most like one of their admins. Another thing they seem to do to troll is just reply "disengage" to random people and if a reply happens after that it's called stalking.
I legitimately can't tell if it's intentional trolling as a joke, or if they're serious and that crazy. It doesn't really matter though....
Just block the whole instance, you're literally missing nothing.

I'm entirely unsurprised that that's on Piefed.

What a snowflake.

Admins should only be looking at who downvotes posts when there is some sort of history of vote-abuse happening. Somebody voicing their opinion with their votes is a perfectly valid use of the upvote/downvote system.

That's funny, someone was telling me about how Lemmy's moderation system is super authoritarian and opaque recently, in a conversation about the merits of Piefed.
That's using their own interface?

Just block and move on, I think
If they ban you, so what? I doubt any single instance forms a huge percentage of your experience here, and that goes double for some knob's shite little personal instance. Put another way, that kind of moderation is never going to grow a large community; maybe they want it that way, but it does mean they'll stay irrelevant to the majority of users. And the reasonable ones that person bans will make their own instance; the instance with the most reasonable moderation will end up with the most users.At least, this is how I've been using it. Just firehose the lot at first and filter down the noise over time. My block list is long, communities and users. Hell, I'll block a whole community if I see the admin or a mod being a dick. I feel this has only improved my experience.

DMing me about downvoting your posts is a good way to get me to downvote you upon simply seeing your username. And bans don't stop people seeing and downvoting your posts. Just posting and commenting in your comms.

I must be missing something. Your account is only 1 day old. How did you manage that?

How is "bro" toxic...? I can see how someone who isn't a dude objecting to being called one, but that's not an issue with the word itself

No, because on the Fediverse you always have the option of making your own instance and your own community (with blackjack and hookers) if you don't like how the one you're on is being run. Literally no point in complaining because unlike reddit you are always free to make your own with your own rules elsewhere whenever you want.
Honestly this whole comment section with people proposing to dogpile this user for how they feel seems a lot more "reddit" than anything else.
EDIT: 12 hours later and now we've moved into people making shitposts about it. Definitely reddit-style beating a dead horse and basically choosing to harass a person when all they have to do is ignore them.

Bro, your Lemmy client has a lot of negative space.

All I did was downvote.
