These are starting to really stack up with the nutty mods in some of these places and I’d like to keep score and perhaps display them somewhere. I’m wondering if there’s a list?

If not, short of crawling every community findable by an account and checking banned status by e.g. attempting to post, is there a way to collate such a list programmatically with e.g. an API or cURL or selenium automation, given the structure of the fediverse?

    Damn, I understand why this person was banned, looking at the removed comments. I mean, they’re not bad enough that I would remove them but I can understand why someone else would and if those are the comments that were only removed, the bans were probably for other comments (I’m just assuming banning someone would remove their comments from that community too). The comment about how gender is bullshit sounded based at first but then they said that it doesn’t exist at all (which it obviously does, even if it’s just a societal construct) and that gender dysphoria didn’t have anything to do with gender. That’s a comment I highly disagree with but IMO that’s not so bad that I would remove it. But the comment about how twitch streamers were just leeching of of the youth and how V-Tubers were just incel bait and that they should be banned just like sex work is really hateful. Entertainment is also valuable in society and using a virtual avatar instead of a face cam doesn’t suddenly make it sexual in any way.

    Anyway, pretty long comment but I kinda felt like sharing my opinion on this.

      I don’t want to go off-topic but since you made a character judgement i’d like the chance to respond, I was really just drawing a line between trans people with gender dysphoria who have medical needs that I think political campaigns should focus on versus those folks without.

      I have nothing against anyone either way, people are free to dress or ID however they wish, no sweat off my back, I just don’t want suffering I went through to happen to others when it’s truly needless and I think the massaging could be clearer with regards to that.

        I really wasn’t trying to attack you or anything, that was just the expression I got from the comments I saw. I guess I also had bad expectations going in because I thought if so many people banned you, then there must be a reason.

        I didn’t get the expression that you had anything against trans people but I might have misunderstood your comments on the gender dysphoria thing. You can explain that if you want, I still don’t really get what you mean, honestly.

        I still really disagree with the twitch streamer and especially the V-Tuber thing tho but I’m still sorry for judging based on the few things I saw.
