Memes

I tried going back to Reddit after a year and a half away. It's literally unusable now. Got banned from like 5 subs and Reddit within 2 days whereas before my account was 7 years old without a ban. You literally can't say anything there anymore without offending someone or starting a fight and you'll get banned right away for any dissent or wrong think. Every mod is ban happy and if you say anything beyond a one word, vanilla answer, you get banned. It's absolute trash, like I said I made it there for 7 years without a ban, now it's just frustrating to get banned from every other sub for every other comment. And every post you put up gets taken down right away for one reason or another

Internet moderation needs to be performed dispassionately. It's administration, not leadership. But still, it appeals to power-tripping, self important assholes who have no interest in curating a functional community but instead ensuring everyone thinks and acts exactly like they do. The larger lemmy gets, the more of these awful moderators make up the moderation team. There is no mechanism in place to prevent this. I don't even know how such sa mechanism would work, but as soon as one is figured out, the Internet will be a better place.

they ban me wherever i go, so fuck em both.

Lemmy.World is undergoing is bit of a Zionist admin/mods problem.

They seem to admire the reddit r/worldnews model.

Tell your friends about the Boost app. It makes things so much easier.

Lemmy no official apps but fediverse cross post are awesome

Lemmy's mostly alright, it's nice that it is more politically open, though I've seen a lot I don't agree with from some groups, namely hexbear, but also a bit from other places. ml is a mixed bag for me but at least you can just straight up block things easily.

It's going to have ads eventually if it continues to grow.

Lemmy: with account and active participation (but lurking most of the time) Reddit: using RedReader without account to browse all those best posts from days past.
