They still have that power on Lemmy don’t they?

They do, but the difference is I can’t go to another reddit instance when they pull shit. It’s not flawless, but it certainly changes the power dynamics.

And they don’t have ownership over a single community name as well. You can start a community with the same name on a different server

Can’t community moderators ban users too?

I think the idea here is that if mods are bad on, say, memes@lemmy.ml, everyone can just leave and make memes@sh.itjust.works or wherever. There should be more competition here, at least in theory. Time will tell how well it actually works.

You sub to a subreddit and gen banned on others that had nothing to do with it. Try talking anou how bad the vaccines are… Get banned. It does not matter if you are right or not, cant even have the conversation

“Missinformation” lol everything on the vaccine has been missinformation until is not… “Virus came from a lab in china” “once you are vaccinated you wont get covid (depends on when you say it if its " missinformation” or not)" etc…

Oh, please don’t worry about that, Lemmy’s API will make it easier than Reddit’s to automatically ban plague rats
