I might get hate because of my instance here, but in an attempt to better understand Lemmy I’m wondering if some of you can shed a light on why you chose this instance, what’s great about it, what could be better, is the instance rivalries something that affects your use of the platform or is it just background noise?

I’m not trying to start a fight or mud slinging, it would be good if several people could say their piece and nobody shame or attack them for it no matter how much you disagree.

      Wow, .ml moderation at its finest.

      The user claimed they just told people to vote, for which the other .ml user answered to look at the modlog.

      Then this user asked to point out where exactly in the modlog can anyone read of him doing “genocide denial”. That’s all, no slurs or inappropriate behavior involved.

      Then comments got removed and they got a dose of slurs. Power trippin’ mods be power trippin’.

      Folks, people avoid .ml not because you’re communists. They avoid you because you resemble an angry mob shutting up anyone who remotely misaligns with your views. This thing is unhealthy and I really hope you can do better - after all, .ml is a developer instance, it is the face of Lemmy.

      I don’t care what folks on Lemmygrad do in their free time, but your instance is special. Make it so people coming would see more to Lemmy than stupid infighting on the grounds of ideological purity and “holier than thou” mentality. And maybe then, over time, you’ll gain new allies.

      Sincerely, yet another communist.

      Lol, by “follow your around” you mean “replied to you once in a thread that was on all”.

      genocide denial because I told him to vote,

      Unfortunately for you, your modlog is public

      that’s the kind of disconnect I’m talking about.

      Yeah, the disconnect where you lie and other people point it out.

      they’ll convince themselves that they’re right.

      Unlike you though, you’re just built different, right?
