      It’s a screenshot of Reddit not Lemmy.

      But you are on .ml, which is one of the worst instances especially if you hate power hungry mods - also avoid .world.

        I ditched .world because of their euro-centric attitude on free speech regarding, specifically, jury nullification. Which is, as I pointed out, the critical final tool for us citizens to try and legally change unjust laws and/or unjust applications of it. It’s also older than the US, and the government hates it when anyone remembers it exists. To the point that lawyers are forbidden from mentioning it to juries in court. Because the ruling elite fear anything that gives the citizens the slightest shred of hope that we could upset their oppressive system. So duck them euros and their censorship bullshit.

          .ml isn’t all that bad. I see a lot of whinging on about being banned “over nothing”, but the thing about Lemmy is removed comments are logged. More often than not, they’re lying.

          I’d suggest “nothing” for the time being.

          There are a lot of different people around here, and different people get angry about different things. So there’s always going to be a lot of different bad things said about a large instance like lemmy.world. But whether or not those things are actually a real problem is for you to decide.

      Knowing the average redditor, they probably had like 6900 posts about Luigi (or every of those banned words) every hour for weeks.

      I don’t blame the mods for dealing that way with karma-addicted redditards.

    Turns out hating on conservatists and praising ceo killers is too much of a popular opinion for that sub, is that what they want to say?

            Bruh their point is literally “nothing interesting because people keep repeating slogans without even reading or understanding”. And you keep doing it.

            Nobody said anything about CEOs. You added your own narrative.

              It reads to me that they are complaining about the number and nature of Lemmy posts around topics featured in the image, captioned Luigi and largely revolving around the actions he took against a CEO. Im also tired of seeing people complain / Pearl clutch about the one time americans got close to class consciousness.

              Nobody except for literally the post that you’re commenting on? You know, the entire basis of the forum that you’re participating in?

                I’m commenting on the comment chain. The post is about banning keywords. The chain is about Lemmy droning on about the same topics without anything new to say. There is nothing about billionaires here, yet the one I responded to had to make it about that, proving the OP right, then going deeper in.

      That part is the exact same and worse here. Lemmy is not really decrentralized, it’s just fractured. Each community still have just one “big one” by design.

        Difference between Reddit and Lemmy is that you can legit say “I’ll start my own Lemmy, with blackjack and hookers” and expect it to make an impact.

        Whereas with Reddit, whatever Spez says is law, even if it’s as consistent as bird shit on a car windscreen.

          “I’ll start my own Lemmy, with blackjack and hookers” and it will have the same systemic structure that perpetuates underhanded unaccountable shadow moderation and the concentration of power into the hand of a few individuals who just happened to be at the right place at the right time and cannot realistically be avoided or dislodged until an absolutely monumental fuckup on their part that it can’t be ignored.

          It’s becoming clear that Lemmy is not in any way the safe haven it has been marketed as. And this NFT rigamarole certainly isn’t going to be that either.

          Anything that doesn’t put the ENTIRE content discovery engine fully in the hands of the users and that doesn’t make content moderation a crowdsourced-only transparent, auditable endeavor is going to reproduce l’ancien régime.

            Lemmy is not in any way the safe haven it has been marketed as.

            Marketed? Lemmy is not a company and there is no marketing department. Generally, what you know about Lemmy is word of mouth from people who used it before you. No one controls the narrative in the end.

            Do you know how shit Lemmy could be if some hexbear tankies could come into your community and brigade it until they’ve banned half the users?

            Or the flipside, it’s a process that involves weeks of voting and you’ve got CP plastered all over the front page while you wait to reach enough votes to trigger its removal.

            Moderators exist to fill a role, that is the need for immediate action. Communities should be involved in decision making around rules, but you need people on hand to take responsibility and keep shit running. The benefit of Lemmy is that if you don’t like it, you can go create your own instance or community, without being subjected to a singular owner; that’s the issue it was solving, not your terrible one.

            Aren’t you just describing Lemmy?

            Content discovery is fully in the hands of the users, and content moderation is both crowd-sourced and transparent.

            Upvotes, downvotes, and reports are all forms of crowd sourced moderation. The modlog is transparent and auditable. What are you on about?

            Instances are moderated by their moderators. Other instances that would rather not associate with a different instance can withdraw federation. I think the system works fine.
