Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
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 don’t know. But it’s gotten to the point that I don’t trust any piefed instances anymore at all. Rimu pushed a piece of code into Piefed a few days ago specifically to silence criticism against him and to silently delete/block posts on Piefed. He is exerting such an extreme amount of control onto the entire platform itself that I cannot trust the platform itself.
Every piefed instance, as far as I’m concerned at this point, comes with an enormous asterisk.
Uhuh.
I’m sure there was another piece of code specifically designed to silence leftists a few days ago, given it’s the entire purpose of piefed, but it’s not like this is a surprise?

Extremely concerning.
I knew there was hardcoded stuff to block instances, but this goes further… got a link?
Here.
He pushed that into the code of Piefed at the same time that he was getting criticized a few days ago. Added the feature specifically to control the narrative.
Codeberg link?
