If you make a lemmy, and the your admin bans you, what happens to it? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Lets say I have an account on lemmy server A, and with my account I make a lemmy community. Some people post in it. Everything is cool. But for whatever reason the admin/owner of the lemmy server your lemmy community is on decides to ban you. What happens to the community you made? How does the lemmy software respond to it? Does your community get banned with you? Or does the community just get stuck without any admin and people can still post in it?

As I understand it, the community would simply carry on without a mod, until such a time that the site admin appointed a new mod. The content would remain, and other users would still be able to post to it etc.

Hunh. So they could just boot you out and take your sublemmy, lol.

You are setting up a booth in someone else's house and then complain that they have the right to kick you out?

There is always the option to do it in your own house via self-hosting your own Lemmy instance.

No I'm asking questions so I learn how it works.
