Comment on Why is Lemmy much better with telling a user why they were banned?

I’d assume the biggest reason, in addition to what others have said, is the difference in user numbers. It’s a lot easier to be a good mod at this scale than at the massive scale of Reddit, especially with the rampant AI bots, and without powerful tools like defederation, the clearly visible mod log, etc.
I’d assume most people bothering to moderate, even on Reddit, intend to do a good job with every report, but being overworked forces people’s hand.

Nah, most people who become mods do it because they love the power that it gives them to be important and to silence anyone they disagree with.
