    I got banned from lemmy.blahaj.zone for trying to start an honest discussion about trans people. Looks like they ban anyone who doesn’t treat them as gods

    I got sucker punched by a few. Here is what happened.

    I get a message from someone on a different instance saying they are setting up a community with similar interests to one I currently moderate. They ask if I can help get their community going by posting some of the things I currently post, which trying to be helpful I do.

    Within a week or two, they are using those posts as an excuse for defederation because we are invading their instance.

    I have learnt my lesson. Will not be so helpful in the future.

    I got banned from lemm.ee and accused of being a fascist within a couple of days after only making about a half a dozen posts some of which evidently betrayed the fact that I am not a Marxist.

    GAYS AND TRANNYS AND FURRIES EVERYWHERE Even on the solarpunk instance, threexchromosomes shows up prominently on local. How is that solarpunk related?

      Dude, all this Shits going to get fragmented. I’m still looking for replacements if reddit does that crypto bullshit. The fediverse is perfect for totalitarian moderators it’s not good to users

    I’ve made posts about mine, tldr:

    Spoke my mind about topics I disagree on, showed my proof, my own personal stories, and had an open mind for debate. NOPE! was. Called a monster and that I didnt care about human lives!.. We were talking about abortion.

      Dam. Yea abortion is a tough one for me. Honestly don’t know how I feel about it. I definitely don’t agree with how the left wants it on demand at the point of birth. Though

    I helped multiple users use lemmy better, didn’t really get political on their instances and multiple times advised them on the block features of lemmy. They proceeded to call me nazi, bigot, scum, monster, ban me, block my instance and act like gigantic bitches

      When you set up your own community, you become the moderator and define the rules in the community. You can add other moderators as you see fit.

      At an instance level, I just monitor the reports that come in and make sure sure there is no child porn, etc.

      Be smart about the subject lines that appear in the local feed as they effect the whole instance.

      I would welcome you to set up and if any problems crop up we will deal with them then.

      But you seen how we operate here. We try to censor as little as possible.
