I noticed in the last few days, at least two very active posters got banned:

  • @Laguriz@piefed.social
  • @foyuka@sh.itjust.works

They are probably new people here trying out the fediverse because a friend recommended it to them, seeing that it's lal not-so-active as they're used from other sites, trying to populate it with content, and getting banned for it.

As far as i can see, they didn't post highly-controversial stuff or sth. Just random and sometimes slightly-critical-of-society (but not very critical of society) comics, just as good comics should do IMO. I don't see why they got banned?

This is not how the fediverse becomes popular among the population. This is how to convey an elitist look of "being sceptical towards new users".

4days old account spamming borderline comics smells karma farming except there is no karma and no farm. Sir this is a Wendy’s

What?? I hope the reason people are being banned is a little bit less stupid than whatever this is...
