Glad you are here!

There are instances of heavy-handed mod and admin actions here, but they are often held to account, generally on [email protected]. Moderation disputes often end up discussed from a third party perspective on [email protected].

It is an echo chamber here too, but I have seen more often that opinions against the "narrative" getting -10 or lower but not censored. Some double down, are flamebaiting or downvote farming for unknown reasons, but there are times when you can see a genuine attempt at understanding and discussion from both parties. Over 7 years on Reddit (2016-2023), I can count how many times that happened on one hand, while on Lemmy, it's infrequent but it happens a lot more than that.
