On Digg there’s some drama because someone registered the community “/wallstreetbets,” and the admins took it from him and gave it to one mod of the subreddit “r/wallstreetbets.”

One day later I see this discussion about how Reddit registered trademarks for some high-profile subreddits.

This could be relevant for the Threadiverse.

    I can’t find another post I’ve interacted with in StableDiffusionWitches (or the dragons one, or several others I was banned from), so unless there’s more there that I’m not seeing I literally was banned from that community because of a single downvote from seven months ago.

    I’m not saying “don’t ban the trolls”, that’s obviously fine - someone downvoting the majority of your posts across your communities isn’t interacting in good faith. But you can’t honestly say I’m a troll, I’ve got what four downvotes of which two might be federation issues? Should I really be getting mass-banned with a "no you’re the problem for not liking us enough >:( " message?

    If I’m a troll I’m the worst troll ever, and that’s why I’m saying those mods are being hypersensitive here - even in the best case that it’s not just a federation issue, I’ve gone seven months with four interactions. They need to tune whatever method they’re using to decide who’s a troll, because if that is the threshold they’re clinging to to justify how persecuted they are that is incredibly unhealthy. Even r/conservative is more lenient with their bans.
