   I didn't know that gnusocial has such a variety of themes. Coming fresh to gnusocial.jp, I tinkered a bit with the selection of themes. And I'm impressed. Right now I run "lightomic". Lovely.

     @simsa03 What happened on gnusocial.net for you? Why your account are deleted by admin? I love GNU social.  I do not delete non harmful account like spam bot.

     This is a sad story. I made some harsh (the admin of gnusocial.net would say: rude) comments at a moderator of a third instance who told a friend of mine to put sensitivity content warnings on some of his posts. (I can elaborate on this in a different post if you wish.) The admin of gnusocial asked me to take down the post to which I complied.
     
     As the moderator kept addressing me, I asked her to stop which she didn't. I then asked the admin of gnusocial.net to do something about it so that this moderator could no longer address me. (gnusocial.net doesn't have the qvitter interface that allows a user to mute or block somebody else.) To which the adminstrator reacted dismissively.
     
     But it was this moment that an already longer discussion between him and me (via email) about me leaving the instance due to differences of what is an appropriate behaviour on his instance culminated in him deciding to first "silence" (i.e., sandbox) me and then delete my account. He did send a backup of my data in form of an atom-file which I can open with a text editor, but no RSS reader is capable of displaying it. All in all, the impact has been hefty: destroying a lot of conversations across instances and damaging my ability to have access to my past data, posts, bookmarks, musings.
     
     As I said, it's a sad story because with the exception of me not agreeing with all of what he thinks is a proper and polite behaviour on his instance I got along with him pretty well. We've talked a lot about gnusocial, about glitches in the software, and bug observations I sent him. I regret this development.
     
     I truly hope that my stay on gnusocial.jp doesn't create a similiar fallout. Please give proper warnings and heads-up right in time when you see me do something or act in a way you don't deem fit. It is still your instance and I don't want to do any harm.
     
     Thank you for asking.

     @simsa03 @gnusocialjp yep I certainly had similar experiences with their admin, particularly that I didn't even realized I had been banned multiple times and thought it was a bug. That being said I really do like how https://gnusocial.jp/url/27104 has their sandboxing set up. It allows for open sign up, a lot of people get turned off to platforms that request that you "beg for an account", so people can get started right away, but still provides a good prevention mechanism against spam bots and the like. The first GNU Social instance I joined, since shut down, had a lot of spambots and I just thought that's how the Fediverse was and I personally would have to take a lot of action to get others to join so that we could drown it out.
