Don't know why but I cant access comm like the dunk tank from lemmy ml
It just says
The server returned this error: couldnt_find_community. This may be useful for admins and developers to diagnose and fix the error
I just randomly noticed that haven't seen posts from dunk tank. It seems I got automatically unsubbed and now can't even search it from lemmy ml instance.

That's cause some of the admins were semantically defending pedophilia and got butthurt that we called them out on it and removed the community for "harassment".
Check the modlog for davel and nutomic, on all related accounts.

You can find a quick summary of what davel did here
I remember the post about a moderator. Didn't know that they blocked the comm. That's very cowardly of them.
Yeah there was a bit of a struggle session/squabble and your admins blocked that comm because people were being mean to them or something?
this was the initial post: https://hexbear.net/post/2830702
The post was eventually removed (after generating a lot of discussion and getting the original user in question banned from lemmy.ml)
then there were some follow up posts more focused on two lemmy.ml admins that were perceived to have given the original reactionary mod way too much leniency and stood up for him. I think that perceived "targeting of admins" (criticizing them), is what prompted the defed of the_dunk_tank

Some modlog sleuthing will be necessary if you want to read all the replies back and forth, as our mods removed a lot of the comments made by davel and such for "defending pedophilia" after he got very upset that people were "casually labeling someone a pedophile"
I still don't 100% understand what part of this necessitated blocking the_dunk_tank specifically or if that will last. I hope not, but I also don't think users here were being unreasonable in being upset when they saw a guy with a long history of being shitty taking it beyond the pale, and some lemmy.ml admins rather than going "woah shit, guess that guy wasn't salvageable, sorry", came after us instead for being too aggressive about how we went after the guy and the admins that had seemingly enabled him. There was one user that may have had a personal grievance against one specific lemmy.ml admin, but even if that's the case I don't think that invalidates the rest of the genuine issues.
Oh damn. I remember the dunk tank posts. I didn't know that they blocked afterwards. That's very crybaby of them.
Oh geeze this is all pretty fresh stuff too. Shame, Davel always seemed cool. Pedo crew gotta go though
yeah... I had no opinion of him before this since I browse Local 99.5% of the time, but like you'd think after this long of us being federated he'd be familiar enough with our userbase to know A) that our heart is generally in the right place and B) that doubling down, yelling at us, and civility politics weren't going to calm people down when he was seen as defending (for no good reason) a guy that had a long history of being shitty to begin with, and now was doing pedophile apologia.
Going "Um actually, I defended him before the pedophile apologia" rings pretty hollow when he was still being super misogynist before that... Like you gotta at least lead with "this is beyond the pale and he needed to be banned", if you conspicuously don't condemn his statements and then go on to try and nitpick everything people are saying because you took it as a personal slight against you, people are going to think you actually might agree with the pedo apologist.
Like genuinely, if he didn't get so defensive, and explained how lemmy.ml's moderation policies differ from hexbear's, and that this user had been given perhaps one or two too many chances because they wanted to give him an opportunity to become a positive part of the community, which often sorely lacks the perspective of global south comrades, I personally would have been satisfied with that (though glad that I stick to hexbear)
