What kind of circus are y'all running?

@OrbitalMartian Oh, and I have looked at it from their position. If I was in their shoes, I'd certainly be more concerned about what their community wants than what's best for some shit-slinging company that's only goal is to spread misinformation.

assume that each server has to, itself, agree to some sort of terms to be a part of the Fediverse
My friend runs a Fedi instance and got to choose all the TOCs and COCs that they wanted. There are generic ones but I have seen some instances where they allow things that others don't. Each instance is unique.
My guess is that the moderators on Social are not a fan of the words used and the way you spoke towards the user from another instance. It's likely that someone reported the reply and sent it to the staff of Vivaldi Social.

@Ayrdanger who gets to decide what misinformation is?
I don't find Snopes presence on the Fediverse wrong. If you don't like them, just block the account and move on. That's what I do when there are accounts I don't care to see.
-
@mathieulefrancois Misinformation is generally agreed upon as being non-factual. Snopes saying Musk's sieg heil wasn't actually a sieg heil is misinformation.
-
@Ayrdanger that's your opinion and that's fine for you to have an opinion, but they were just providing the facts.
If you don't agree with Snopes, just block their account and move on.
-
@Ayrdanger Yes, because your account got banned on Mastodon only, I think. Similar to what @Catweazle said.

Similar to what @Catweazle said.
Or maybe not so similar...

@mathieulefrancois It's not an opinion. We are speaking about facts here, bud. Musk performed a sieg heil. Snopes reported that it wasn't a sieg heil. Therefore, Snopes spread misinformation, thus shouldn't be welcome in the Fediverse.
This isn't a difference of opinion. Saying "Misinformation is information that is factually incorrect." isn't an opinion. It's a factual statement. Saying "Musk's actions at the inauguration ammounted to being a sieg heil." is a factual statement. This isn't akin to whether or not we like pineapple on pizza- which is an opinion. This is about something that we all saw with our own eyes, and all these US-based media outlets are downplaying it, while EU-based media quite literally had to censor/blur Musk's sieg heil.

I believe that at this point, we need to step back from the content of the article that you commented about, and look at the comment itself. Was it a nice, friendly and polite response? No, no it wasn’t. That’s most likely why you’re account was suspended on Social. If you have appealed it, it’s probably best not to stir the pot elsewhere. This (in my eyes (opinion)) is kinda circumventing the ban, I could be wrong though.

Just a reminder of the Vivaldi Social rules. A moderator/admin has deemed you to be in violation of one or more of these, hence the suspension. I think this should be a matter best left there to be honest.
