“Unpleasant” is anything that strays outside a very small circle of behavior. Moderation is a force for mediocrity and an energy-suck. And doubly so given the people who seek the job. It’s inevitable
You can hang out in unmoderated areas with people hurling slurs around at each other, personally I enjoy a more civilized experience where people aren’t just trolling each other.
Edit: Ahhhhh, this is a new account. I guess you got banned and are now butthurt and whiny about it. Which tracks.
Yes, an area full of assholes is bad. But an area full of smug fellows like yourself might actually be worse. The average asshole seems less inclined to team up with likeminded assholes and call their group vibe “objectivity”.
Why don’t you share your previous username? Then we can see what got you banned and use that as a test case for “is Lemmy better with or without mods”?
You do realise that in the fediverse you don’t have to have a mod, right?
You can:
run your own instance
create whatever communities you like there
have no mods in them
federate with the rest of us
No matter how much modding or even defederating any of us did, you would have the complete ability to say whatever you like and even see all our content.
All we could do is choose whether to interact with you.

“A very small circle of behaviour” - okay, lol.

Because nothing says truth like a consensus of smug fellows like yourself, right?
In other words, you know you were a dick and you know how sharing the username you were banned under would go.
Yes, I am guilty of having conversations exactly like this one here.
Lol, moderators are mean and unfair but no I can’t show you how innocent I am.
You’re a classy guy. I’m sure the rest of your herd thinks you’re the bee’s knees.

That is very well explained, thanks.
