I don’t really know which community to post this in, I think this is the most relevant one?
I’ve recently spent a bit more time on lemmy.world and I have to say they don’t seem super keen on removing trolls and transphobes, same for instances like lemmings.world.
The moderators seem to be perfectly aware of transphobic replies, vague threats, misinformation, and obvious trolling, yet they hardly remove any of the offending replies, and rarely if ever ban anyone. Certainly not often enough to make the network less toxic.
This post was mostly to vent, but I would also like to ask: when you report someone, who receives the report? Mods on my instance? The mods of the specific community I’m reporting from?
Sorry if this is the wrong place.
If you delete the words “maybe” and “slightly” from your first sentence I will agree 100% with you. It is atrocious behaviour.
We both have different views about how instances should behave - and both have our reasons for why we think what we do. That’s cool.
My mention of “safe space” was in the context of a person who NEVER EVER (sorry for shouting) leaves said space; not in the context of said place being used as a refuge to relax, recharge, recalibrate, revitalise, be your(real)self etc.
P.S. If you steal/stole my user name how do we know that this isn’t you replying to you?
