There's a thread about it here:

The head mod appears to be the wrong sort of cray-cray.

The reason for this PSA is that the lead moderator on r/pinephone has repeatedly behaved in mean, disrespectful and outright inappropriate ways. The reason we take issue with this is that he does so in 'our' name; I have now 8 inquires from people asking why we [PINE64] banned them from the said subreddit. I have no intention of letting this stand any longer.

For one all mods except the lead mod only have email rights, meaning all mod actions are done by the lead mod. The lead mod called a user a name so I DM'd that mod to inquire what their beef was and in response I got a sort of paranoid 'who are you? are you from pine64?' (paraphrased). This led to the rabbit hole of searching through their reddit history and finding a lot of interesting bits (i.e. on an AMA about a ww2 soldier 'why didn't you shoot yourself, I hate soldiers' again paraphrased).
