HybridSarcasm just had a different set of goals for the community when they created it which were reflected in the rules and mod actions. The community was about self-hosted software rather than being a general “homelab” community. Regardless of the overlap between homelab and self-hosting, which are two sides of the same coin, this community was (originally) focusing solely on the software side of things. All of their mod actions reflect that.
Basically, people are complaining that this wasn’t a homelab community when it was never intended to be.
Posts removed had nothing to do with homelab efforts, and included issues with self hosting. So unless you are defining a homelab as “Anything that isnt the software itself being discussed”, which would be a really odd definition for a homelab, then no.
That may have been their intention, but it doesn’t reflect the moderation at all.
Meh, I disagree. I had many posts removed about running vpns on my servers for external access or similar topics that isn’t a “selfhosted” softwared but runs on the damn server.

That is an absolutely wild take IMO.
