Talked to the admin, and ban has been lifted (it was only a 3-day ban). We will probably keep out of 3rd party community mod decisions in the future unless they clearly violate our own instance rules.
Remember that reports from people also come to the admins by default so it forces us to make a decision. Ignore the user who reported it, or act in some way. A bit like a trolley problem so to speak, it kinda removes the option for us to “do nothing”. And those decisions are not always clear based on the culture of every community.
Anyway, I feel like this would be a good topic about which to open a /0 thread.

Thanks for clarifying
