Seems like there's basically no effort to address disinformation. I love the idea of the fediverse, but I've never told a single person I use it in well over a year because I'd be embarrassed if they ever visited and saw some of the content that gets upvoted here.

I mean, Lemmy devs are tankies, who participate in misinformation sharing.

If you see some, report it. Some of us admins of other Lemmy instances take disinformation seriously.

Literally had a Hexbear user double down advocating for violence towards America after I told them it’s not a constructive way to go about holding the leadership accountable.

Thank you for your efforts, I have so much respect for the people who are helping to build a healthy fediverse.

Does a report go to the instance's admin?

Does a report go to the instance's admin?

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 1 month ago

It goes to the mods and to the admins of either the reporting user's instance or the instance of the user being reported.

So whenever a lemmings.world user reports something, I know about it and whenever something by a lemmings.world user is reported, I know about it as well.

I personally don't moderate content that breaks community rules, I think that's the mods responsibility/privilege, but if it breaks instance rules, I deal with the comment/post/pm myself. Some of the other admins I know moderate the same way.

Do you have examples?

Do you have Hexbear and the .ml instances blocked?

[–] Blaze 2 points 1 month ago

Hexbear yes, ml no
