I'm loathe to defend Reddit's moderation decision but my experience you can never trust the person being banned to explain why they were banned.

Because it is a post to an entirely different social media site.
Because you can't control human beings? I'm not entirely sure what you mean. The entire reason the structure of ActivityPub and the Fediverse is what it is, is to have moderation not controlled by a single entity. Enforced consolidation is both impossible and would defeat the purpose.
Lemmy "communities" are structurally just modified user accounts. So it seems like it could be possible for one to "re-toot" a post similarly to how it can be done on Mastodon and elsewhere.
What's weird to me is that even after being reminded about it he carried on as if they don't exist?
A cool feature would be to enable community mods to "retoot" posts from other communities, keeping the comments together.
LOL as I was typing it I thought to myself "Ten years ago nobody alive would have any clue WTF this could possibly mean."
This has been true for over a year now, I think the only reason that community points anywhere else is because a majority of them already moved to Lemmy instances.
This is a really good idea actually.
I haven't seen anyone mention lemmy-explorer yet, it's a good way to find communities too:
Exactly, not being beholden to one set of rule-deciders is not so much an "issue" as a distinct feature of the Fediverse.
The nepotism part has always been true, and talentless celebrities have been around as long as the concept of "celebrity" has, but the category of celebrities "being famous for no reason" did not truly exist until Paris Hilton. Princesses and Kings aren't "celebrities".
