MODERATORS
 

Seriously why? Discuss.online has horrible moderation and open-signups, and Lemm.ee isn't very much better. If lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works were completely nuked to avoid the moderation headache or risks from two large open servers, why aren't lemm.ee and discuss.online banned as well?

This is just my anecdotal experience as an outsider, but the volume of nonsense coming out of lemmy.world dwarfs anything coming out of any other server. Three separate times this week I have had groups of people from there aggressively telling me some kind of total gibberish. I thought about defederating rss.ponder.cat from them, just on general principle to encourage people to go elsewhere and improve the overall cultural quality of the network.

I can't speak to sh.itjust.works, to me they seem fine. lemm.ee I've never had an issue with. lemmy.world is just a nonstop fountain of drama and ridiculousness, though. Deliberately hosting and making a home base for UniversalMonk for months, for example, I will never understand.

I mean lemm.ee literally hosts a conservative community, which on occasion features borderline transphobia and homophobia. Right-wing stuff ya know. discuss.online has wide open sign-ups and has regularly had spammers, trolls, and assholes come and go. They are a liability. As far as I can tell Lemmy hasn't gotten substantially better moderation tools since those last two big defederations, so the issues with these servers and servers like them are still valid and apparent.

I just know that users from lemmy.world post stupid stuff to me on a pretty regular basis. I'm not aware of any lack of moderation that means that the stupid stuff goes unchecked, except from lemmy.world, as well lemmy.ml, Hexbear, and the like. The flavor is different but the distastefulness is consistent.

I saw the response from sunaurus, which matches my experience.

Also, from OP's bio

Account on lemm.ee because the pedophile admins in lemmy.world think they can keep me banned

OP, could you please provide evidence for those claims?

Some shit I made up from a long ass time ago. I got over it and don't rlly care anymore.

@sunaurus@lemm.ee please consider this a report for defamation. I doubt that there are any pedophiles among the admins of lemmy.world, and if there are, I don’t think “I got over it” is a good response when asked about details. I think this is of a piece with this post, just a bad-faith attempt to cause strife for apparently no reason at all.

You're free to have your own opinion, I was a reactive angry person. I'm not denying responsibility for what I did back then.

[–] SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why not just change the text then if you're over it?

[–] dipshit@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

I just did a few hours ago.
