FWIW, the community was worldnews@lemmy.ml.
I assume I was banned because I said I understood Biden opposing surgery on minors, specifically trans surgery. Although I disagreed with it.
Lol lemmy.ml is the biggest tankie instance in the fediverse. Really hoping lemmy.world defederates from them soon.
I hope not. They host a lot of interesting communities, and have a lot of users.
Interesting post from lemm.ee’s admin on defederation as a last resort: https://lemm.ee/post/35472386?scrollToComments=true
And I’m saying this as someone who’s been trying to get !linux@programming.dev as a viable alternative to the Lemmy.ml community
Yeah it’s a shit show that place, I’ve had comments removed too. I just left and blocked it from my feed. That’s honestly your best option. Don’t give it a, second thought.
Thanks. I guess I’ll have to start using my Beehaw account some more for some of my news.
lemmy.ml is a tankie community, so this is not that surprising. It’s a matter of time before I get banned from there too lol.
I’ve seen the term tankie thrown around a lot recently. Can you please define it? I’m not quite sure I understand.
Nutshell: auth left.
In practice they’ll stan any US adversary. Common themes include uyghur genocide denial, blaming nato for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Soviet atrocity apologia, the works.
lemmy.ml is just a ban-happy shitty instance with a ton of weirdos on it.
Next step would be to proceed blocking every .ml community and joining the equivalent ones on other instances.
Afaik lemmy.ml is pretty ban happy. For example, apparently you can’t criticize the Chinese government:
How is worldnews, or lemmy.ml remotely rational?
Modlog is here:
That seems completely reasonable. Move on. Take your respectful conversation where it’s appreciated
I’d recommend not participating in communities whose mod policies you disagree with.
yeah, this is the reason I don’t write many comments on Lemmy. you first write a comment, and then find out that you have already been banned for the previous one.
That’s usually not the case on other communities
