I can't see evidence that it's banned. I'm on .ml and can see it just fine. It would be in the modlog if it were banned.

MODERATORS
Politics: the activities of the government, members of law-making organizations, or people who try to influence the way a country is governed
All the comments against the decision i have seen on this post argue why the rule should be bypassed, not why this respects the rule
My guess is someone is afraid thinking about this content might threaten their politics.
Knowing what I know about the politics of the .ml admins, this doesn't make any sense unless it was removed by a community moderator.
Friendly reminder that we can FOIA first and last names of every ICE employee and their salary, and position/title.
Every last one of them.
It's a good and legal public list just waiting to be collected nice and legally, and shared with the taxpayers as per our still existing rights.
This assumes the department or people involved with fulfilling these requests hasn't already been compromised or shut down. The request means nothing when it never gets looked at.
Ultimately, this would come down to the judiciary. They (ICE) could stonewall all they want. Those documents are on file, and you better believe the judiciary will exercise every ounce of strength they've got in producing them.
It might get delayed unduly for quite some time, but those names are the public's. Not a damn thing any person who decided to accept the job can do about that to stop the public.
Does it even fucking matter what’s banned in what echo chamber??
Why are you posting on ML in the first place?
It's a tankie cesspool with instance-wide rules for white-washing genocide.
There are a few normal communities, but more and more of the normal ones are moving off of ML.
.ml should be defederated from lemmy.world tbh
I don't really care, both are pretty fucking bad
I haven't had much trouble with World. But .ml and Blahaj are both fucking insane. Good riddance.
And this is why I'm on lemm.ee. Instance rivalries are a waste of time
In Voyager -> Settings -> Filters & Blocks you can add them there. It won't prevent tankies from infecting your threads but it's a good start. Individual blocks are easy on-the-fly.
There are still many non-tankie, normal tech communities on ML though.
I am seeing a slow tendency to move off ML.
There are also users on .ml that aren't tankies. There are even tankies on other instances(!)
Sloooow
Also, the community we're in has a rule against moderation complaints, so I would really crosspost to [email protected]
Nothing says "we are a free and open community that welcomes others" like moderators banning discussion of poor moderation.
Yes, I do understand what the rule is there for. No that doesn't make it any less hilariously shitty.
I prefer [email protected] , just for the non delay with aussie.zone https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/40460535
Thx. I saw the rule. @ mods I’m fine if you want to remove this.
I think federation needs to be better explained possibly here either with a sticky or sidebar. And a diagram of who we are federated with and not that’s live updated would be helpful too.
Thanks for all the work you guys do
That's never going to happen. The admins of Lemmy.ml are the actual developers who make the Lemmy software, so there is huge resistance to doing things that will offend them.
There was a software project aiming at making a non-Lemmy Reddit replacement. The main dev got sick and basically the project (Kbin) died, though spawned a fork called Mbin, which afaik has barely been improved since.
Though you may want to check out PieFed, even entirely aside from all of this. The set of features that it has been developing and the speed that they are added is nothing short of astonishing! Btw I am writing to you on Lemmy from PieFed right now.:-)
At the bottom of the page on every Lemmy instance there's a link that will show you the instances it's federated and de-federated from. Look for the link labeled 'Instances' from a web browser. Here's the link for lemmy.world that your account is on-
HOLY SHIT. I'd never perused that list before, so I had NO idea how many unsavory instances were out there, thankfully blocked here.
- childpawn.shop?
- childlove.su??
- pedo.school???
- rape.pet??? which fucking runs the "incestoma" software??
WTF is wrong with people?
That's the kind of content instance admins are and need to be concerned with on the topic of defederating instances. However most of the time it's over whether some user in a shitposting thread was unfairly moderated.
Ty. That stuff should be available in mobile clients too. It could definitely be better visually represented and contain a reason and a defederated since date or more.
Also an explanation that addresses my other example about downvote brigading a tertiary instance.
I agree.
Lemmy is still finding its feet and I think things like this will improve as it continues to grow and mature.
While Lemmy has been around since before the reddit drama, many of the large surges in users have been reddit refugees. As a result a lot of the apps we have are ports of reddit apps that the devs slapped together in a hurry to let users pivot to Lemmy. As time passes we're seeing a number of new apps pop up with Lemmy specific features, and some of the older apps are still/finally being updated to be more feature rich.
The software Lemmy runs is also changing fairly rapidly so there's some feature disparity between the webui and the various apps. Part of the normal growth process for a younger social media imo, but frustrating at times.
