In the past imgbb was used to post CSAM to some communities so some instances remove links to images hosted on it (or I guess ban the user in the instance you were on)
Edit: seems like that was lemmy.world, reach out to their community team and ask to be unbanned
Why not raise the request while being nice? You’d be surprised how much spam and scam I remove every day. So I wrote a bot that will do parts of it for me. The bot is not perfect and there will be false positives. If you contact the admins instead of calling them dicks, you might actually improve the Automods in use and prevent another false positive!

Just found the post from someone having the same issue a week ago. It’s odd there is nowhere specified this list of blacklisted hosting services.
And banned with no warning? Fucking powertripping mods all over again.
Modding is a time consuming and often thankless job, this doesn’t sound like power tripping.
Why not warning before banning for such stupid reason?
