A post may receive a hundred replies and host a fat and exciting conversation tree, but if one moderator doesn't like it then it may be locked or deleted. Is that immoral? - eviltoast

    Just to be transparent, I’m the mod who removed your posts.

    We get a lot of rule breaking posts between the multiple communities I moderate, some of them get upvoted heavily and still get removed.

    For example, someone posted a scientific post that had nothing to do with technology in /c/Technology@lemmy.world, it had a decent amount of upvotes and comments. It was still removed for rule 2 of that community, as it was off topic for that community and there are ones that exists for that content.

    Sorry that it upset you, but if I could give you advise: just follow the community rules and you won’t have these issues

      But you avoided my point.

      Hundreds say yes. You say no. But your opinion wins. Is that immoral?

        I didn’t avoid your point, I actually answered it: rules are rules and exist for a reason, if you break a communities rules they will remove your post or comment.

        To put it more simply for you, no, it is not immoral - especially when you look at the context of your question.
