MODERATORS
I have nothing against your instance's moderators or users, but I'm not quite sure the admins of your instance follow the same guidelines.
I would really recommend newcomers pick a home instance like db0 over .ml or .world, and be aware of the instance rules when posting on communities in either. For .ml, avoid criticizing the CCP, and for .world, avoid expressing any desires that can be even remotely seen as "violence".
This is bullshit, flyingsquid banned me for saying Biden is too old and genocidal and the DNC will lose by running a "everything is fine and you're wrong" campaign. And then it happened. I've blocked your shit instance ever since.
Yeah, I never said .world is any good either. Both of them have Ye Old' Power Tripping Bastards worthy moderation.
My instance had a genuinely stupid policy where trolls were not to be banned but instead countered with facts. To prevent echo chambers, or some stupid shit like that. They also blocked the db0 piracy community from being viewed.
