Lol, that's crazy (and apparently true). My instance defederated from them months ago when they became Lemmygrad-lite. Looks like they doubled-down from the top since then.
Edit:
It was originally communist leaning, now I think it's just gone full tankie. Before that, they were at least bearable.
I had multiple people in their politics community advocating on behalf of Russia in the Russia-Ukraine war. Just spouting talking points that could've come straight from the Kremlin.
Yep. That, and the brigading. It may not be organized brigading, but every 3rd comment from users there was basically someone jumping in with "capitalism bad" and tearing down any discussion/ideas for improvement that aren't complete and total destruction of the current economic model.
It was exhausting, so I finally just defederated. Was like a breath of fresh air after that.
Yeah it has certainly escalated to an extreme pro-china/russia perspective there, where I've seen them simultaneously claim that the US is entirely responsible for Isreal's genocide and deny the genocide and ethnic cleansing committed by China.
Definitely went full tankie.
yeah just copped a ban from that instance. No rule broken, unless disagreeing with a mod is against the rules. They make reddit mods look like saints
Modlog prob looks like this:
Reason: Ambiguous Rule 1
thats exactly it :)
They just want it (along with other things) to limit how fast trolls can make accounts.
You can say it'll only take five minutes, and I bet it does.
But that's probably enough for trolls to go to a different instance to make their accounts.
Better ways are there maybe they could give us a privacy guide instead of a communist guide ?
Pretty sure it's a joke that they picked that one...
I thought it was stupid, but after seeing you get so mad about it, I understand why they did it.
I am not mad just wondering i think if the devs like it to be a communist instance we should let them be.
Your profile says you have three accounts from small instances...
And this one is only a week old...
And not the same one as you made the post with?
Sounds more like your a troll that gets banned a lot and are mad that instances took steps to keep you off their instance.
Maybe I'm wrong tho. I do know there's an easy way to avoid things you don't want to see on Lemmy tho.
