    There’s an awful lot of political views around that aren’t tankie.

    And it’s less about the users and more about the kind of lopsided, censorship moderation that happens on .ml

      That may be your concern, but it’s not the discusion OP started. That’s the discussion OP claims to have started.

      Quoting myself from yesterday:

      Subject line: Nothing about moderation or censorship, it’s about smearing the target’s views.

      First two sentences: Nothing about moderation or censorship, it’s about smearing the target’s views.

      Third sentence: Links to archive.org link that fails to load. (I think they are still under DoS attack) May or may not be about moderation, but nothing OP wrote in the leadup to the link leads me to believe it’s about more than smearing the target’s views.

      Then a couple links that sound like they are about discussing moderation.

      Then another para smearing the target’s opinions and politics some more.

      I feel like those ratios are a bit off if OP is really so bothered about moderation practices.

      There’s an awful lot of political views around that aren’t tankie.

      Sure, but most of the time you don’t know anything at all about who designs and develops the systems you use. I totally support people going to where they feel comfortable, and I’m a huge believer in defederation as one of the strengths of the fediverse. Block early and block often and all that. OP didn’t spend time on that though, OP spent most of their time on character assassination.

      Also, the target of these smears is the main Lemmy dev - not just Lemmy.ml. If OP is so concerned about their influence then OP should move to mbin or something.
