OK, maybe so. I blocked that instance a long time ago, and haven’t kept up on recent goings-on. If you say that it’s gotten worse, I’ll take your word for it.
Comment on FYI: Reddit trademarked some community names (Digg link)
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 1 day ago.ml mods are exactly the type to ban people from every community because they don’t share the exact same viewpoints as the mod in question.
dbzer0 is getting almost as bad with certain admin and certain topics now too.

Which instance are you talking about there?

oh, sorry– .ml
I haven’t personally run afoul of issues on dbzer0, but I’ve seen others complain about it for a while.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 1 day ago
.ml has always been bad and even some of dbzer0’s admins are questioning the direction they’re taking lately.

dbzer0 definitely has a problem with banning people for voting
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 1 day ago
Their lefty communities are very authoritarian too.

TL;DR: The dbzer0 community decided to start banning people for downvoting AI generated posts. They said they’d only ban people who come to a community and do mass downvotes, but Ace T’Ken downvoted four AI posts that showed up in the feed across a period of ten months, and was still banned from several communities by a prominent dbzer0 mod. There was also a side plot involving some person or group of people impersonating every major actor involved in the drama, which is why so many comments in the thread are removed.
There were several other drama threads related to the voting bans:

I remember a few more discussions from back when all this was new, but didn’t have as easy a time finding them.

Maybe they should curate their feeds instead going into places they don’t like and mass downvoting everything?
