@gravitas_deficiency I'm using mastadon over lemmy. Sorry. It's a new thing. This person in particular was basically shaking the community down for crypto donations and when they weren't getting what they wanted they decided to stop doing it and now they've resorted to a demigod complex I guess?

Cool to learn a bit how Lemmy via Mastodon behaves. I accidentally subscribed to a Lemmy community via my Mastodon account, but I just ended up unsubscribing and resubscribing via my Lemmy account.

No worries! I was mostly just curious - I had seen that comment pattern recently once or twice, and that was the best explanation I was able to hypothesize, which I guess was accurate-ish.

The rest of the dynamic seems… Eesh.
