I just got permanently banned from a community for making a single harmless remark on a single post that was right there in the main feed. It’s not a community I’m super active in so it’s not like devastating, but it is annoying

If your precious little community is full of so many delicate sensitive people who can’t even be reminded that another viewpoint even exists, then you should really protect them by defederating and having everyone join your private website

The mod has literally removed like 75% of the comments and banned everyone lol

I don’t know about anyone else, but I don’t have time to read every rule for every community that pops up when I’m in view all

    My retort/unpopular opinion: There’s no recommendation algorithm, if it’s not a community you’re subscribed to, and you don’t care about it … what the heck are you doing engaging with it? Move on to the next post or block the community.

    Agreed

    Alternatively, we should be able to block interactions from people who haven’t subscribed to the community without limiting federation or making it moderator only

    At the moment, the only option is to ban them
