MODERATORS
 

No info on who, what or why

Modlog finds my account but doesn't link to anything to find out more:

mod Banned @boredtortoise from the community World [email protected]

reason: Sinophobia

expires: in 5 years

Edit: as the larger issue, when incorrect mod actions happen, shouldn't Lemmy have a system for handling those? Both transparency to the users, and ways to forward the action for an admin to fix

What did you say? Lemmy.ml is known to be quite biased towards China's regime

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Well that's the thing. I didn't say anything. Or can't find what someone thinks I said. Usually modlog links to posts and comments where the violation happens.

My previous comment threads on the community relate to: Canada fucks up yet again, rich people go to space joke, Taiwan joke, democracy indices. Before that nothing for multiple weeks.

There are regime fans in the users, but this is a mod action and calling me a sinophobe is pretty derogatory considering all my love and hope for the culture and people in China

Why does anyone subscribe to [email protected]? It's run by tankies. Therefore very biased.

I browse by everything and don't pay much attention to subscriptions.

I've thought it to be the most widely federated world news community and have shared local news there and to similar communities on other instances. I didn't know of any mod wrongdoings earlier.

In general, lemmy.world communities have wider audiences as it's the biggest instance, and they show up as local for those people

Oh cool. Last I heard they had performance and federation issues. Thanks for the info

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's very stable lately, enjoy!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are they still deferated by some major instances?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Just Beehaw, but Beehaw tends to defederate a lot

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Even lemmy.ml has suffered the occasional server hiccup. Most of the big instances are pretty stable now though
