It is objectively a lot more male than Reddit or other social media. Reddit has many issues, but lack of women is not one of them.

    I am forced to see posts in communities I am banned from for having an anti-ai stance AKA a working brain. I didn’t block all of them soon enough.

    What I am saying is that you should still be able to block communities you are banned from. Seeing them in my feed and being unable to get rid of them is like seeing cockroaches in a kitchen.

      You should be able to add them on the Blocks tab of this page. There’s a text box you can fill in with the community name. It’s more annoying than pressing a button but maybe less than continuing to see the content.

      Honestly, they should just automatically be blocked if you are banned from them.

        Which is also not good because people are usually banned from channels they like and want to see the posts.

      Judging from this comment that doesn’t seem to be the issue with you

      If you get banned from your own instance, all your posts and communities you created are deleted. Lots of posts get deleted because of this.

        How would someone get banned from their own instance? Do you really own it if you can get banned from it?

          Other meaning: “If you get banned from [the instance where you created your user account]” might clear it up. It’s not their own instance in the sense that they are in control of the system but it is the one they might consider “home”.

          Compare this against a case where a lemmy.world user gets an instance-wide ban from the admins on lemmy.ml, for example: user can’t participate in .ml communities but it doesn’t nuke their account.

            I see. I guess home instance might be a phrase we should spread to avoid these kinds of confusions.

        No way! Why should I get banned? It’s the ai slop communities full of no-talent ass clowns who should be banned.
