Hi all!

I just saw that an upvote in a science community wasn't going through, because I'm somehow banned - don't have any idea why, but that's just a side issue.

Is there a way to see which communities banned me or do I just see it, when I want to interact in said community?
And for the side issue: is there a way to see why I was banned?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: thanks to all for the answers! Didn't know where to see the modlog

Locking for rule 5.

I don't have context but it looks a mod banned you from several for those comments?

[–] magpie@mander.xyz 40 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I read the deleted comments and there really wasn't any homophobia, silly to be banned over something like that.

Wide permabans as first reaction for borderline infringement is not healthy moderation.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I get the feeling lemmy.today might have some republican admins

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 35 points 1 day ago

Based on the communities OP was banned from, it was almost certainly DonaldJMusk that did the banning too. Which is wild given that their own username basically looks like the same joke

Thanks

I admit, I was trolling conservatives, but yeah, nothing against gay couples or anything

[–] magpie@mander.xyz 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Mod was probably taking his daddies' very public divorce hard and wanted to take it out on someone.

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 15 points 1 day ago

Pssht!
Don't talk too loud or you'll get banned too ;⁠-⁠)

Thank you!

Didn't know how to access the modlog

Regarding the thread in a conservative community:
Well, I was trolling a bit, but I didn't say anything bad about being gay or something.
I just made fun of Trump
I can live with being banned there, but wanted to check why an upvote in a science community didn't got through, as I can't remember that I said anything stupid there.
Will go and check now, after you showed me how
Thanks again :⁠-⁠)

Edit: either I'm stupid or I got banned from communities, I didn't even interact with.
Seems I've hurt some feelings of a mod of multiple communities - at least that's my current interpretation

If you search your username in the modlog you can see what communities you have been banned from among other things.

Thank you very much!

[–] Idontopenenvelopes@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Are we repeating the Reddit insanity here too?

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 13 points 1 day ago

At least here I can just use the community of a different instance for the same topic

But yeah, power corrupts indiscriminately

(Hopefully I've read your comment correctly and it wasn't addressed to some wrong doing of mine, which I fail to see at the moment)

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Go to this post's (because it's you) hamburger and there is a moderation history link in the dropdown. That will give all of your moderation history.

[–] rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

As a side note, it's way easier for me to do this on mobile than on my instance via web.

Thanks! :⁠-⁠D
