It was a certain mod that took issue with it, idt it was really a site wide rule or particularly stringently enforced
Actual site wide stuff gets communicated by carcosa
This post is the one I was referring to when I used the word mandate, a post made by someone I believe was an admin at the time, but maybe not. But I also talked to someone at the time from there who was a frequent commenter in places like the lemmy c/worldnews comm and they were very angry about having their posts and comments removed, while others were banned. I checked the modlog and sure enough. I'm really not trying to stir shit, it's just something I'm sincerely curious about because it seemed so... off brand to me, to use a lib phrase.
