Just curious if anyone has experienced this and is this common for communities in the .ml domain?
I mean it’s awfully pathetic.
Edit: Well, thanks for answering my question, especially the guy from .ml. Good to know what the behavior in general is over there.
.ml doesn’t need to pretend to be open to all opinions and points of view. The mods prefer to keep it as a leftist space and aren’t interested in entertaining constant liberal commentary. If you think its pathetic then just block the instance and don’t engage.
.worlders always love a good whinge about it though…
yeah but they really shouldnt go around suggesting that instance to ppl if its not for general use and is worse than reddit when it comes to censorship
To be fair, they never go around telling beginners to use their instance.
They do on reddit, thats how I learned about lemmy, they reccomended ml and ca I think
It’s interesting, because when I was originally looking into making a Lemmy account and installer Jerboa, the only supported servers were .world and .ml. So it sure looked like .ml was being promoted in some way. As a beginner at the time I wouldn’t know any better.
I don’t think Jerboa is even affiliated with lemmy.ml. Correct me if I’m wrong tho
Its one of the most reccomended ones offsite, half the comments replying will be about how trash it is, anyone sees that comment chain they’ll assume lemmys ass altogether
I couldn’t even if I wanted to since I’m no true scotsman and was banned after a single initial post. Very pathetic of the people there and very sad that the people there are so fragile they can’t handle any sense of dissent. I mean that’s a lot of conservative energy there.
I’d say it’s pretty fragile to make a post about how they banned you as if you’re looking for validation from other users for how pathetic it was. This is a recurring theme on Lemmy.world. You’ll feel right at home on that instance if you don’t like how .ml operates
“You’ll like being places where you’re welcomed even if you have a differing opinion far more than a place that carefully maintains an authoritarian echo chamber” isn’t exactly a scathing indictment of their character, you realize that right?
I’m sure they’d be so upset at being accused of maintaining an authoritarian echo chamber. Yawn. Don’t worry, they dislike you just as much as you dislike them.
.world is hardly a welcoming place if you express the wrong opinion.
