Yeah the majority of people, like myself, came here after leaving reddit so it's not surprising. Some instances are already speed-running the censorship and mod abuse too. The lemmy.world admins decided to pre-emptively defederate from another instance purely based on the admins own ideological stance. Can't possibly stand the thought of having people that have different political views than you being able to share those views, oh no. Gotta shut that down before it even starts. And remember - these are the people that call the other people fascists.

thing is, defederating doesn't silence anyone. the info is still there, anyone can access it or contribute to it, and plenty of other instances are still federated with them. it's not censorship, it's just choosing who you carry water for.

Lemmy looks more and more like reddit everyday. It was nice while it lasted, but confidently incorrect jerks like you who don't even get the point of decentralised platforms are going to ruin it.

What did I say that was confidently incorrect exactly?
