At least 3/5 times, my post gets removed either because:

  • it violates some subsection of some dot point in those extensive sidebar rules that I didn’t study thoroughly enough, or

  • some mod decides it would be better if I posted as a comment in their dedicated mega thread on the subject, or

  • the Automoderator removed it without explanation, and the mods are all currently on holiday or too busy to GAF.

Anyone else have this problem? And is lemmy any better?

    For best results, in any online community, it is wise to read the rules before you contribute

    Well if you read my post, sometimes it’s not just a question of reading the rules - you have to literally study them. Sometimes they are voluminous, and contain caveats.

      Can’t say I ever experienced that in the 11 years I had my reddit account. Perhaps you and I post differently?
