"It's so unfair!" ... as if the identical thing is not being done to literally everyone else all the time. Toddler logic.
A nuance that people often miss about lemmy.ml's authoritarian policies - whereby they ban people from communities they've never even seen before - is not that it is done, but that when it is it cites a hidden set of rules that are nowhere ever written down. Little kid logic, where the rules mean whatever they feel like in that moment, and if you don't like it then feel free to try to stop them.
Some people here are pushing for fascist Reddit 2.0, others for free-speech Voat, but most of us just want to get along somewhere in the middle without too much bother:-P.
You mean these hidden rules at the top of the front page?
Those hidden rules, shown openly and have working links. So hidden. I heard McDonald's hides the Big Mac from the public too.
The rules only matter if the admins adhere to them and enforces them consistently.
My recollection is that Voat took a turn into being fascist Reddit 2.0 pretty quickly itself.
Took about two seconds.
