FYI - the owner of this site, gamingonlinux, was a mod on the !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml community until they were caught abusing their moderator powers. Then they deleted their account and complained on mastodon that it's stupid design that mod logs are public.

What does this comment mean. No other communities have bad moderators?

Oh they absolutely do, but ml has a reputation for being particularly poorly moderated

And it's a behaviour that stems from the admins who'll ban users from the entire instance if they disagree with their opinions.

It's the only instance I have blocked at my account level so I don't see their communties.

You really should look it up since you're on the site. Make your own mind up about if you want your account to be associated with people like that.
