I’m sure there will be ways around it. Mods can automod-delete every comment, change the rules of the sub to only allow posts of nonsense, or nit moderate at all.
The main problem is that protests don’t succeed at reddit because people like moderating for free for some reason. Strangely Reddit has more leverage over mods than mods have over reddit.
…I’m gonna go ahead and say it.
I like it better here.
Same. This place is great, even with the tankies from lemmy.ml and the fascists from hexbear, at least we somehow still get along.
Not all of us are tankies fwiw, I just wanted to be on the largest and most well-supported instance with generally the least amount of downtime.
hexbear isn’t fascist
They are heavily biased towards China and Russia, two countries with fascist governments. That kinda speaks for itself, even if they claim to be communists or socialists.
They share the same positions on global politics as pretty much every Marxist-Leninist political party on the planet. You may not like those positions, but trying to characterise them as actually far-right extremist is absurd horseshoe theory nonsense.
Liberals & social democrats on lemmy.world acting like NATO, the US Democratic Party, and capitalism are the real bulwarks against fascism is amusing.
I’m not surprised. I’m on this site because I’m sick of being banned on reddit for thinking wrong.
Bruh, at least you just got banned “for” something. I got shadowbanned, and for seemingly no reason at all! I made some very neutral comments in fandom subreddits, and only when I looked at the pages logged out, I realized the comments were not showing up. I can only guess it was either my location, my custom domain email, or a combination of both.
I had that happen too. Conversations with people would just dissapear. I’m done there. I can’t say anything even slightly edgy without getting banned. I got banned from a sub for saying mods will kill reddit. I got a permanent hate speech ban for a fantastic joke.
“I can’t show you the evidence of Haitians eating pets. They already ate all the evidence.”
I like the reddit form of consuming information but that place you either get in line or get silenced. The equivalent of r/politics is far left on here too so that might be a bad sign for this site though lol.
