I like the focus on free expression and the loli/shota/cub policy! The admins seem pretty chill too!

    Right. This will never be used against anyone on this local instance. Do note that nothing here is ever truly deleted and that everything is just “marked” as deleted. I’d imagine this is so admins can take action against someone who’s stirring up some shit and can hold said people accountable.

    If you don’t like this fact, then Lemmy is not the right choice for your social media needs. Since all instances do this. It’s not unique to us.

    I just now looked to see if “deleted” posts get deleted from the DB via an automatic scheduled cleanup task and they do after 30 days per: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3208

    My mentality is that I’m already going into the DB to undelete communities since those who delete their accounts automatically wind up deleting the owned communities with it (I know, it’s stupid) and reset user’s passwords who request it. Since we don’t have an email server. While they’re just password hashes that don’t mean anything, this “is” sensitive info nonetheless and I feel uncomfortable seeing this data.

    Anyways, I saw this post from a person who isn’t even from this instance, and the post they made minutes after @Disabled@burggit.moe politely responded to him where they were trying to get us defederated. This was hours after I found out we were defederated from a big instance, for which I was still feeling slightly miffed about.

    This guy was exhibiting average Redditor vibes and I just had to shit on him since he’d naturally be used to a typical Reddit mod materializing out of nowhere and making the bad man (me) go away immediately with a permaban.

    He proved he was an average Redditor by deleting his post and trying to clear any evidence of shitting all over someone’s house. And I just needed to put it on display just what he said and tried to do. This guy is an average Redditor. Let’s all point and laugh!

    Anyways, this was a rare unique case where someone from a different instance came in here into a positive thread and shit it up and try to get us blocked from their instance and I just couldn’t let him get away with pulling their typical Reddit bullshit.

    Sorry for rambling.
