MODERATORS
 

These are starting to really stack up with the nutty mods in some of these places and I'd like to keep score and perhaps display them somewhere. I'm wondering if there's a list?

If not, short of crawling every community findable by an account and checking banned status by e.g. attempting to post, is there a way to collate such a list programmatically with e.g. an API or cURL or selenium automation, given the structure of the fediverse?

"All the communities" you're ... dude, what kind of serial shitposter... nevermind, have a nice day bye.

Yeah? Which ones am I not? Lol I'm not a shitposter wtf?

I'm only banned from communities to do with queerness, socialism, Europe, news, ADHD and politics. I'm a trans woman from Europe who has ADHD, is a socialist (Anarchist) with an interest in news and politics.

My hobbies also include hacking, planes (simming primarily the A320 and general aviation interest), milsims, trains, AI, philosophy, social sciences, history, paleontology (especially the Cambrian and Devonian), music production (DAWs, plugins, synths, etc.), video making (esp. editing), programming, space (orbital mechanics/astrodynamics and astronomy), Unix/Linux/BSD, SelfHosted/homelab stuff, gaming (inc. the culture), macroeconomics, electronics (as in, breadboard prototyping, IoT with pi/arduino, embedded hacking and physics of electricity), flashlights, manga, TV shows (just finished Generation Kill), Star Trek, drugs (psychs mostly), retro computing (C64 and Amiga) and many more I can't recall rn and I seek out and subscribe to communities on Lemmy for all of them, plus those with differing opinions politically e.g. neoliberal/neocon, socdem, tankies etc.

Is that really so odd? It's pretty normal to me. I used Reddit in the same way.

I just don't have insane hivemind opinions, but relatively reasonable ones and voicing any of that (Ukraine right to self-defense, gender dysphoria is a medical disorder treated by transition - not a choice, AI can be useful etc etc.) seems to be a big no-no on some parts of Lemmy.

Anyway this is all extremely off-topic at this point so I'll probs delete this thread later but I'm genuinely curious why you'd think I'm a shitposter.

Yeah, it must be the numerous different "nutty" mods! It's definitely not you that's the common denominator here!

I looked at the modlog and while OP seems snarky, sarcastic, and opinionated, their bans seem pretty unnecessary by my standards. The stated reasons seem fairly dubious, more mod finds your opinion disagreeable than any rule-breaking.

Moderation on Lemmy is a shit show honestly.
