A warning I guess. I didn't realize some of the communities were on .ml, which is the devs "flagship" instance so they ban people for saying stuff like "tankies gunna tank".

Devs are hardcore tankies. It's unfortunate

It's best to just block the lemmy.ml instance.

[-] Lumu@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Can you block instances? I never figured out how but that would be super useful.

[-] Asudox@ani.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yeah, since v0.19.0.

You basically never see anything that comes from lemmy.ml. Some instances like hexbear are worthy of being blocked by everyone. Though afaik most instances with sane admins have already long defederated with them so yeah.

Why not just stay away from lemmy.ml then? You can start the same communities on another instance. It would be like me going to a Nazi instance and pointing out that they ban anyone that celebrates diversity. Like, yeah... that's what they do. It's in their ethos.

You technically can. The issue is that when the average Joe sees five instances of the community they're looking for, and the highest users/month stat is on .ml, they'll post there for the most traction. And the problem just self-reinforces from there.
