According to the modlog for [email protected], @[email protected] (display name: ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆) was banned by the instance admin @[email protected] on March 20, 2024 08:52:45PM for “spam”. Upon examining the most recent 119 posts in that community (6 pages from https://lemmy.ml/c/worldnews?dataType=Post&sort=New to https://lemmy.ml/c/worldnews?dataType=Post&pageCursor=Pc99aa0&sort=New), I have found that yogthos is indeed the top poster in this past week, contributing to 19 out of 119 or almost 16% of the posts, with the second most posts coming from @[email protected] at 15 posts.
Just being the top poster over the past week or so doesn’t make someone a spammer, if we examine yogthos’ recent 19 posts, we can find that they vary in topics and sources. I hope that davel or someone can explain this ban or undo it if it was a mistake.

Well… sometimes people actually and honestly thoroughly read and article. The might even go back and reread it.
Other people read an article but by read they skim the first few sentences of each paragraph and skip to the next one unless it seems like the rest of the paragraph might have more useful context.
Other, other people will read as far as the headline or mmaaayyybbbee the first few paragraphs and decide to drop a post about it.
So… “read” instead of read seemed more appropriate in this context.
