Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?

@rimu@piefed.social

What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?

Mass instance bans

Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).

Done

Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).

Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.

He has abused the modlog to claim ‘harassment’, which I have never engaged in. I have not even interacted with Rimu in any way for days prior to getting kicked from the PieFed developer Matrix channels.

He has decided to mass ban 20 users because they have spoken out against his erratic and hostile behaviour as of late.

    I have not even interacted with Rimu in any way for days prior to getting kicked from the PieFed developer Matrix channels.

    Is this a continuation of this? :

    Rimu doesn’t want authoritarians. I have never interacted with them personally, but it seems that this is causing issues for some people.

      Rimu seems to be behaving like an authoritarian.

      Please refer to this portion of the discussion thread, which appears to be the basis for the ban, and point to where I engaged in harassment: https://anarchist.nexus/comment/3846622

      I have barely interacted with rimu either, but apparently thinking “Whats the big deal, ask them to update the code and review the pr” is harassment.

        It’s wild how they used I added pronoun support so I can’t be a transphobe in response to someone asking can you please not have a function called stupid?

          To be honest he’s probably extremely paranoid and on the defensive. He saw the avatar with the trans colors and was immediately “oh I fucked up better make it clear that I’m not a transphobe”, what it’s wild it’s him kicking her out after her saying “I never accuse you to be transphobe chill out”.

            A wonderful mod from piefed.social is trying to argue their reasoning and all of rimus defenders are claiming transphobe is because of how the admin described the instance rimu attacked…
