Ok, I’m sorry for this question, and if this isn’t the right community, please let me know where I should ask it.

So a user in a different community is making a big deal about how terrible I am and that I have been “perma-banned” form an instance.

And he posted this screenshot as “proof.”

But I have no indication I have been perma-banned from any communities or instances and never even heard of this unix instance and I don’t even know how to use unix.

I’ve attached a screenshot. Can you guys better explain to me what this means?

And for reference here is the post of him saying it to me: https://lemmy.world/comment/12216663

I legit have no clue what he is trying to imply. Any pointers?

    Since instances are federated, posts show up across instances that federate with yours. Please try not to worry about it. All of us project, to greater or lesser degrees.

      Thank you. I was just curious because the guy is really laying into me and laughing about it, but other than his screenshot of an instance I have never heard of, he has no posts to show me that would have gotten me banned. lol

      But hey, probably already spent too much time. I think he may have been behind the whole thing. He’s been following me on Lemmy a few days now. Thank you! You guy are awesome!

        Thank you. Hurt people hurt people. And the wheel of samsara keeps turning. It is hard, but let us focus on giving ourselves, each other, and in due time, those who traumatize us the love we seek. We can do this. We will stumble. We will fall. We will get up and try again, and again and again. Bullying is ugly. Click on his user name and block him. It’s sick and sad if mods are allowing this, rather than not noticing. You can complain, if you think it will matter. Just be prepared if may not.

            The only thing I’ve seen toxic so far is how he’s been treated. I’ll tell you something though, I see his abusers being very personality disordered, and it couldn’t hurt to self reflect. The loudest voices aren’t correct, just loud and very badly behaved.

        Why would I have posts to prove a reason you got banned? I mean even besides technical hurdles with federation making that potentially difficult, why would I invest more time into this issue? Lol you got banned and the person who did it said you’re toxic, and I can agree. Not sure why you’re drawing more attention to it

          Because as many in the tech thread said, it could be for nothing. There are no specific posts that show me even posting to that sub. So it’s not proof of anything other than some person in some instance (where there is no proof that I even posted) decide that they would ban me. And my post history also shows ZERO evidence that I ever posted there.

          The tech thread answers and the no stupid questions answers: https://lemmy.world/post/19485386 https://lemmy.world/post/19485485

          And really hard to take your seriously. Besides just being banned from World news for your comments. You’ve just had some comments here, that were directed towards me, removed for civility.
