The problem with this reasoning is that many of the popular communities are actually on lemmy.ml, and they’re not so easy to replace.

Very true, I saw a post about censorship posted on !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world that happened in !comics@lemmy.ml (instead of another instance with the same subject community) possibly because of this reason OP mentioned. This complaint post was also deleted from the community because it was violating the rules which I suppose it was since this was the reason:

The title of the post in the picture above was the reason given by the comics mod:

My unpopular opinion however is that simply de-federating won’t help as it just promotes those instances into becoming louder echo chambers. I think the simpler solution would be to have a dedicated community for mod abuse (I’m aware of !modabuse@lemmy.world but .world blocked /c/piracy so…) , so users can be aware of said issues and create or migrate to different communities as we see fit. Besides, users can simply block entire instances for themselves. Please don’t comment on the paradox of tolerance as I just mentioned blocking for oneself already.

P.S.

Devs please make it easier to browse the modlog, having to press the next button is bafflingly tedious. I had to resort to editing the url to browse faster, add a jump to by time/date or something.

I’m doing the same, I rarely ever have to use it unless compelled to by work or simply a lazy site with less compatibility for anything beyond google.

For anyone who wants to try here you go.

Source article I think

Ba Sing Se is the capital of a kingdom in Avatar: The Last Airbender where information was being suppressed to put it simply. It’s a good watch.

Customers will notice the change on their next bill. Netflix has quietly put up its prices across each subscription tier in Australia.

Why is this even legal, oh who am I kidding lobbying most likely. They began notifying people on May 13. Thanks for the correction @blindsight@beehaw.org.

Let’s agree to disagree.

Why the fuck would I mean explosives, did you think by kill I meant their heads would explode? Most marine life depend on sounds more than us as such have more sensitive hearing which get disrupted and damaged more easily because of it by the sounds we make, especially sonar.

Use sonar loud enough and it’ll kill or at least damage pretty much every marine life it reaches, so humans win the battle. But lose the war because us winning just means mutually assured destruction.

Rules for thee but not for me

How the hell do republican women even exist not to mention all the republican women in government. Does none of these affect them or are they always pregnant?

Exactly.

I’ll never forget the 2019-2020 Hong Kong protests and how the CCP responded. And how so many people of Wuhan suffered because of them, not to mention all the whistleblowers that are still missing.

This ain’t watchpeopledie

And still is, it shouldn’t be this way. Stop Killing Games really needs to take off.

You can use Tab Center Reborn & OneTab for a much better tab hoarding experience.

They don’t really aim for them either, it’s not like most young people would go lobby them in their preferred way(money).

At best it’ll create another spin-off like the hundreds that already exist on the app/play stores.

They’ll probably ask for a referral, it’s legal in 48 states.

They don’t care about every corporation because they work with those corporations. It’s because it’s a foreign power that started doing the same shit they’ve been doing for decades now. None of these countries & corporations deserve any sort of sympathy or support from any sane individual.

Chinese TikTok is Douyin & it’s not banned there. They wouldn’t ban something that they can use for control or else WeChat wouldn’t exist now.
