Not really sure what you're talking about here. r/worldnews, r/news, r/UkraineWarVideoReport, r/CombatFootage, r/inthenews, r/RussiaUkraineWar2022, r/Ukraine, r/CrazyFuckingVideos, r/UkrainianConflict, and even r/Damthatsinteresting have posted about it today with thousands of upvotes each.
r/WorldNews even has a stickied megathread about today's news, and sorting by "Hot" on their sub only has a handful of posts not talking about the Wagner Group.
Because you're literally browsing a magazine about that other site?
I agree that this particular mod getting banned isn't directly related to the migration efforts, but the overarching drama it's connected to is the main reason people are leaving Reddit for Lemmy. IE: admins becoming hostile towards moderators, developers, and redditors, resulting in an environment that the whole userbase is trying to flee. So even though I don't care about this "power-tripping asshole mod" (as another Lemming described him), I get how some people here might find the post useful and relevant.

Thanks for the writeup! Dumb question from a Reddit Refugee incoming:
Q: When subscribing to a Lemmy community (magazine), we paste the [!CommunityName@LemmyInstance.url](/c/CommunityName@LemmyInstance.url) into our Kbin search bar, correct? What would cause a community to not show up? I know that some instances can be defederated (cut off) from others, but don't think that's what is happening here. Is there a lag between when a new community is created and when the wider fediverse gets the memo? Eg: [!starcitizen@lemmy.ml](/c/starcitizen@lemmy.ml), which was just created due to the impending Reddit Blackout
I do too, but this thread is about ways to filter or block content so I'm not really sure what that has to do with it?
I'd love a way to filter by keyword, which the Reddit Enhancement Suite and some of the 3rd party apps allowed. Maybe the upcoming Sync for Lemmy will port over its filters by domain, user, subreddit, flair, and keyword.
As for Reddit posts invading Lemmy, it seems like most of them are contained to c/reddit and c/RedditMigration, so blocking those two should fix most of OP's issue and that's easy enough to do without any extra tools.
