I don’t know who is the mod of that community, but I suspect it’s the OP of the post.

My comment was a list of problems I’ve had lately on Windoz, pointing how in my recent experience I lost more time there than on Linux for an equivalent use.

I don’t remember my exact words and now they are erased, but it went along the lines of:

I have to use Windoz for work, and lately I lost more time on it than on Linux:

I’ve had several problems with teams (audio input/output switching unintentionaly, main audio output not controlled by keys/shortcuts, freezing, not answering calls)
Copilot freezing the complete OS so that a reboot was necessary.
Unable to scroll in a Copilot thread.
Locked by Bitlocker after update.
Task scheduler losing a task after sleep.

So pretty much a list of actual issues I met, not exactly what I would call being an evangelist saying Linux is superior blablabla. I’ve no idea (OK, maybe I have). I simply stated facts.

Is it possible to see who the mod was? Is it a temporary ban?

It’s a shame because I precisely created this account on lemmy.zip to see all instances and communities. /shrug Funny.

Edit: sorry I forgot the post: here
And some formatting edit.

          macOS has always been a BSD distro. macOS (and Mac OS X before it) is rebranded NeXTSTEP— the only thing of real value to come out of NeXT, Inc, other than Objective-C and Steve Jobs. Oh, and Jonny Ive, of course.

          The original Macintosh System Software 1 - 9 was not, but ever since Apple acquired NeXT, Inc… NeXTSTEP (a variant of BSD) was adapted to become Mac OS X (RIP Rhapsody), and when Mac OS X debuted, it was BSD all the way and has been ever since.

          Thanks to Apple, via Mac OS X, now macOS, BSD is now 1/3 of the consumer operating system base in North America. 😊

          And when they’re tired of paying for overpriced hardware? They’re not going back to windows… as much as you may hate Apple… That’s a long-term win for *nix.

            I know, ew, and so did a lot of others… I did reply to one comment with an “at least it’s not windows” to stir the shit a little ;)

              :(

              edit: the comment was “at least it’s not windows, lol”

              they left the post, however! they even commented upon it, in their own, spiteful and petty way, that violates their own Rule 2 (I’m going to report it for Rule 2 violation, and see what happens, lol)

              edit 2: they heavily edited their own comment before deleting mine… lol, how very conscientious of them…

                  if i’m honest, this is all taking place at the same time I was having a long conversation on another post about why conversations about macOS are so verboten on lemmy while conversations about windows are so widely tolerated-- btw, people were very civil about that, and I got some incredible insight about that, and about my own perspective (and theirs) on the matter.

                  lemme know if you’d like to know what I learned about that. it was surprisingly fascinating
