.ml mods are exactly the type to ban people from every community because they don’t share the exact same viewpoints as the mod in question.
dbzer0 is getting almost as bad with certain admin and certain topics now too.
dbzer0 definitely has a problem with banning people for voting
Their lefty communities are very authoritarian too.
I haven't experienced that personally but I trust you with My life, SatansMaggotyCumFart. You've always been right about these things before.
OK, maybe so. I blocked that instance a long time ago, and haven’t kept up on recent goings-on. If you say that it’s gotten worse, I’ll take your word for it.
Which instance are you talking about there?
oh, sorry-- .ml
I haven't personally run afoul of issues on dbzer0, but I've seen others complain about it for a while.
.ml has always been bad and even some of dbzer0’s admins are questioning the direction they’re taking lately.
when I first joined up during the reddexodus, I followed the lemmy drama a bit, but I'm really over it by now. after 30+ years of following online community drama, I'm just burned out on it. it's all so petty and childish, it holds no interest for me anymore.
