       Just a little FYIMost instances are run by a team. Not all moderation decisions are made by one personI understand that people can be mad about decisions but getting angry at an admin who doesn’t always know what’s it about does not helpNot everything is decided by an adminJust talk, it’s a social network

       Most of not all moderators are volunteers who don’t get paid and try their bestOf course we make mistakes since we are human and not robotsA part of my job is fixing those mistakes

       And no, we don’t have a 100 million hidden somewhere I’d wish so I could start paying for all servers in the Fedi to begin with!

       @stux @lucybeahere Until you sniff the scent of incentivized favors. If you are making contributions to an instance moderators show favor … then it is time to launch your own instance

       @stux That's fair but then there should be a response when people appeal moderation actions. I was banned a while ago for what I believe was a mistake. Permanent ban on a first 'offense'. I appealed, mailed, but was ghosted. I'm still a bit mad about nobody being there to help me. Even if I understand moderation is a shit job where people will always say you're wrong, it still sucked to be kicked off of a community you thought you belonged to so unceremoniously.
