Seriously, Reddit has banned me several times for “breaking rules” but never tells me exactly what I did to deserve the ban, whereas I see that Lemmy will tell you in the modlog what you did.

    That’s pretty sad. It’s a word with various meanings, you can’t just ban the word outright. In the medical community we might say that a chemical can “retard growth of cells.” Properly used it’s a viable scientific term.
