    I downvoted a couple of posts from one conservative community that were swept into my timeline when this account was new and I was looking around. A day later I was banned from it and five other conservative communities I had never heard of. I don’t think that was automod, I think some human mods want to keep the community free of opinions they don’t like.

          db0 (the admin) is a pretty big fan of generative AI - so db0 (the instance) is quite friendly to it, and has a bunch of communities dedicated to specific types of images generated using StableDiffusion - things like StableDiffusionMycology or StableDragons or, in this case, StableWerewolves.
