I should've deleted my account when I switched to lemm.ee to begin with. I'm glad it's over and I hope you're all enjoying this site more! I feel relief. Wanted to see how others are adapting to being on lemm.ee instead of reddit?
Had a very similar experience. I've frequently found that kind of problem is a direct result of the community simply growing 'too large'. The only way to moderate is hit everyone even slightly suspected of being out of line with a brick.
Back in ye olden days of forums and boards, even flagrant transgression of rules were typically forgiven and you were dealt with like a human because moderators had time and care for the community and people.
