important clarification

since replies here are confusing things up : i don't want to block users ... only communities from that instance (...and only because their moderation is biased).

original title

Do you have this ? Since my account is blocking Lemmy.ml, i do not get notified for replies of users from there

... maybe that original title was confusing ?

You are here (there) since 2 years and maybe you noticed that if we post something in favor of Ukraine or criticizing China and russia on ".ML" then we are in trouble (or create large friction with moderators and administrators) ?

N.B. : ML stands for Marxist Leninist.

I left .ml for exactly this reason

[-] janNatan@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

I mean, I mostly look at memes, so I never noticed that. And .ml stands for Mali, the country. I didn't know it was a dual meaning acronym.

[-] A_A@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

.ml was attributed to Mali by internet authority but Lemmy administrators (& developers) at the time choose that one (.ml) because they are Marxist Leninist ... and because those domains were not expensive.
Sure you know about this 2nd most important instance at the time that was lemmygrad(dot)ml ... ? (it's a play on words from Leningrad)

[-] janNatan@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

I'm aware of Lemmygrad, yes. FOSS is the reason why I joined Lemmy, and I was at least mildly aware of the developers' philosophy. I wasn't aware they were moderating all dissent.
