Almost a year old and doesn't cover the most recent action within just the last 7 hours, like I said, take it to [email protected] and reference your original thread as well as the new actions
Take it to [email protected] then and lay out your case publicly
This was one mod on one comm, if it's a good or bad mod decision I won't comment on. But poor mod decisions can happen any time anywhere.
The problem with .ml is the fact that it's the admins micromanaging across the entire instance in order to push a political narrative. Nearly all mod actions in the .ml modlog is from 2 admins and shows a clear bias to push their ideology, leveraging their notoriety to do it and allowing known misinformation outlets' "articles" to fester while surprising criticism from credible outlets.
That's not "literally advertising", that's an Easter egg, a very subtle hint or maybe even "coded language"
In any case, it requires the person encountering it to already have a concept of it and background knowledge to some degree.
This isn't the 90's/early 2000s anymore where there were only a few TLDs to go around, back then encountering .ml would have lead to a line of questioning like you say.
But not today, today the average user doesn't question the TLD anymore (as long as it's not one frequently associated with "scams" like .xyz) because there's just so many of them ranging from .io to .AI to .shop and .network
If I was proficient enough in Rust, I would have, or someone else would have long ago if it wasn't written in Rust
Rust isn't exactly a very popular language in open source right now due to its difficulty
They do not, Hex and Grad, yes. This is the current homepage of lemmy.ml, nothing indicates them being a Tankie Instance supporting Authoritarian regimes and their misinformation:
Is that supposed to be a negative? LOL
Lol it's ok, they do things purposefully like that to an extent to get that result. Like if you go to Lemmygrad or Hex's homepage its quite clear you're somewhere weird that needs further investigation.
You go-to lemmy.mls homepage and it looks like a normal "privacy focused" instance. Until you innocently comment in support of Ukraine or something and find yourself being dunked on and banned for supporting a "Nazi regime"
I'm personally banking on them getting Sony OtherOS'd, they've done a fair amount of pissing highly skilled people off
Um, excuse me. Thunderstorms are amazing! I'll take a good thunderstorm everyday of the summer over the heat and sun
