The account is a day old so I can't see how I could possibly already have broken the rules. I have another account on piefed.social that I've had for a while and I didn't get banned in all that time. Any ideas what it could have been?
I got banned from piefed.social, no idea why though.

piefed.social
isn't that the anti-left instance where the developer was doing some shady profiling?

I remember before I blocked hexbear, the users there had a weird dislike of lemmy.zip and started harassing me in a thread.
I replied and after several comments back and forth they decided that I wasn't a super evil guy after all.
Anyway, after that annoying encounter, I decided to block the instance to avoid further annoyance going forward.
It could be that the admin of piefed.social has some kind of beef with .zip?

Vibes, probably. Admins might not have liked a username made of text followed by numbers. It's the kind of stuff the folks running it scrutinize.

They need to get with the times. Bot accounts use names that look like gfycat links now.

Oh piefed probably docs them for that as well. too close to a gif in name - 200 reputation and prevented from doing commenting

Yeah. I like piefed for all the features it has but I came to the fediverse partially to avoid bs algorithms.

piefed.social's admins have had a history of banning people for personal vendetta or petty reasons. You shouldn't worry about it too much.
PTB if it wasn't clear.

This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.
Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.
Posting Guidelines
All posts should follow this basic structure:
- Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
- What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
- Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
- Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
- Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions that you have received from a mod or admin.
- Don’t use private communications to prove your point. We can’t verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Don’t deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Don’t harass mods or brigade comms. Don’t word your posts in a way that would trigger such harassment and brigades.
- Do not downvote posts if you think they deserved it. Use the comment votes (see below) for that.
- You can post about power trippin’ in any social media, not just lemmy. Feel free to post about reddit or a forum etc.
- If you are the accused PTB, while you are welcome to respond, please do so within the relevant post.
- Keep the comments in YPTB posts about the moderation action itself, not about the general topic in which the moderation took place.
Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.
Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.
YPTB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.
Some acronyms you might see.
- PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
- YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
- YDM new - You Deserved More: The commenter thinks you got off too lightly.
- BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
- CLM - Clueless Mod: The mod probably just doesn't understand how their software works.
