Not equally so though, and while .world has a mod problem (making the admins enablers, although they do move on things, just exceedingly slowly), .ml has the opposite issue where mods are cowed by the admins doing the stuff directly by themselves.

So those two instances are not nearly equal. I sympathize more with .world's plight: it's really hard to get mods who can be fully fair (likely those very people involved would agree with that) while putting up with all the crap that people spew at them.

Also, you may have issues with the mods & admin of .world, but the normal people on it are more or less okay, on average - at least, what I would expect from the largest Lemmy instance (holding the laziest people, etc.). The people who remain behind on lemmy.ml on the other hand... are those who have adapted to exist inside of the echo chamber maintained by their admin team. I generally find their "arguments" and overall word vomit to be wasteful of my time, but aside from some trolls here or there I do not feel nearly the same way about the people on Lemmy.world, on average.

You are of course entitled to your own preferences about all of that:-) - I just wanted to point out that those two might be of the same kind in your eyes, but even if so I don't find them nearly on the same level as each other.
