I’d understand if they were a random user, but a mod should already have at least some understanding about a community’s topic.

But worse to me are their comments in that post calling the people responding “childish trolls in this community”. I do not think that this is appropriate for a moderator.

    Moderators deal with spam, hate speech and questionable content, so there’s nothing wrong with it. From what I understand, the mod is trying to understand OSS, just like the rest of us. And that’s okay. About the mod’s unruly behaviour, that is really not a good looking for them.

      I personally want mods that are a part of the community that they moderate. This is like the Lemmy equivalent of a city cop that lives in the suburbs.

        In think that there’s enough space here for differing opinions and discussion. Echo chambers are not good. Fyi: I’m against his idea, but I welcomed the discussion.

          They didn’t welcome the discussion, they insulted those who disagreed with them.
