  • If particular instances like blahaj.zone or beehaw wish to defederate them, that makes sense. But if they aren't botting/spamming or doing things that are illegal, I don't see a point in defederating.

  • You literally have "nazi" in your username.

    Sounds like you're drunk up on strawmen

  • What I do remember was being banned from half the subs because I posted a pro vaccine comment in the nonewnormal sub. And it wasn't conservative subs that were banning me. It was usually leftist, slightly leftist or even completely apolotical subs with leftist moderation. And then they broadened their ban list to include pro life subreddits and anti-pitbull activism subreddits as well.

    I did not get an impression that it was a right-wing site.

    Twitter always was a cesspit as well, even before Elon. It was filled with leftist dreamSMP and k-pop stans who'd doxx you over misnaming a haircut in Animal Crossing. When elon bought it, it just turned into a right wing cesspit. A cesspit is still a cesspit.

  • That's due to algorithms. And again, you could just defed them.

  • Leftists deserve our own space on the internet.

    That's not what the fediverse is for. The fediverse isn't to be your own personal haven. However, you can use the fediverse to make a leftist instance and defederate/ban right wingers as you please.

    I haven't been on Reddit since the API fallout, but I rarely ever saw right wingers, nevermind bots.

    Some of these platforms (notably xitter) have algorithms to farm rage

  • Not everyone kneejerks defederation in this case. A lot of places just defed csam

  • They just need to seize bsky domains and it's essentially cooked. The fediverse isn't so easy to attack, they'll have to go after hundreds of instances.

  • Yeah. I don't usually mind either too much. I think there is a problem when you have the likes of !christianity@lemmy.world being downvote brigaded to the point that it actually is unfairly balancing the posts due to the slim minority of Christians on here. Most lefties I find on here are cool, though. Just a slim minority of them, like the ones who get offended at you saying "bro"

    Also, having a Trumpet on lemmy is infinitely better than the loli porn instances

  • Okay, and? The whole point of the fediverse is that everyone gets a voice. It's good to see more people adopting it too, even conservatives. It'll be less of an echo chamber that way.

  • So being sexist towards a Canadian is a warn but being sexist towards an American is a ban?

    Is fediverse turning into reddit?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I've noticed some mods act like twats over here as well.

    Is it true that people misuse the word "racist"/"Anti-Semite" /"bigot" to shut down criticism?

  • They could probably shut down bluesky easier than the fediverse
