my instance has been defederated from .ml for ages and i can personally confirm fedi is still fun here :) take that as you will
Same.
Yeah it’s an amazing experience without them.
I criticized the CCP on lemmy.ml and got called racist and got banned lmao
Edit: thank you for the link, [email protected]!

I stand by every single comment that’s been removed from this platform. Some of them were removed for good reason, one of them was a brain fart that I shouldn’t have posted in the first place, but I’m happy to have y’all investigate my moderation history
ETA: If you read this, and then replied to a comment that’s already been removed from a community I’m banned from, you’re an idiot. I literally can’t interact with you. Why not reply to this comment?
I’ve been called a racist, a homophobe (???) and worst of all a liberal and a fascist (same thing apparently /s) all because I insisted that China isn’t worth simping for.
What I hate most about tankies is that they are the only true leftists and anybody who disagrees with them is just a poser and a liberal. Especially anarchists.
For clarity, the thread you are talking about was filled with reasonable discussion that you doubled down on ignoring. The biggest thing people took issue with is your insistence on having a negative opinion towards something you in the same breath admitted you lacked real knowledge of how the PRC works. There’s a difference between having an opinion based on strong investigation, and one made by vibes, something pointed out repeatedly to you.
If somebody so desperately wants me to support the second most powerful empire in the world the burden of proof is on them, not on me.
Thanks for posting that, I had no idea. Yikes. Time to find a new instance.
Banned starman2112 @sh.itjust.works from the community [email protected] reason: Weirdo who defends genocide, because only young people are aginast it
Thanks for the link and the laugh! 😂
It’s amusing to see the average user criticizing .ml while ignoring the bad behavior of others. LMAO!
Weirdo, why im not surprised at all 😂
You know people can see your moderation history right?

Here is a nice community that keeps track of their bullshit
Lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/yepowertrippinbastards also keeps track of the bullshit the mods do.
/r/shitshitredditsayssays
your “boycott” was already happening naturally because (ayk) lemmy.ml’s mods are insufferable
We need to grow the [email protected] alternative more!
Posting this to lemmy.world, lol
Listen. Just fuckin listen to me. The moment I joined lemmy every enthusiast was singing praise to the fediverse and how it’s easy to maintain the freedom of speach and yada yada yada. What it turned out to be is just constant quarrels between instances, defederations and crap like that while lemmy still fucking struggles to even become a mere shadow of reddit. I fucking hate reddit, I think spez should be covered in fire ants, but by god, looking at how insufferable most vocal lemmy users are, I may get back to reddit, probably as many other lemmy users already did.
Here’s a list of a few .ml communities and potential replacements:
- ask lemmy - [email protected] [email protected]
- linux - [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]
- memes* - [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]
- programmer humor - [email protected]
- world news - [email protected] [email protected]
- technology - [email protected]
- funny - [email protected]
- ukraine - [email protected]
Side note the main issue with .ml is transparency. It’s fine if the admins of an instance implement whatever rules they want in their instance; however, once they start enforcing hidden rules disguised as violations of the listed rules, they’re being liars and treating the users as stupid things to be herded, not as human beings.
EDIT: as people noticed I’m not including .world comms to not encourage even further concentration of activity into the largest instance. Decentralisation is important. Also I’m adding stuff that you guys suggest.
* for specialised memes, as the category is rather large:
[email protected] has over 70 times as many subscribers as the other two asklemmy communities combined.
the main issue with .ml is
transparencyauthoritarian propaganda with full-throated support from the adminsIf they were banning people for shit posting on a communism community I wouldn’t have a problem. Its when you get removed banned from all communities because you said you don’t like there crappy memes
I had the audacity to say that the deaths of Tiannanmen’s Square were inexcusable, no matter who started the violence, and my comment was removed under instance rule 1 (bigotry)… like wat 😂
Ah, typical lemmy.ml . They have a hard time understanding that you can support a certain ideology without necessarily turning a blind eye to everything that people claim to be doing for the sake of said ideology, or that any criticism against their actions is automatically false.
I remember you, by the way. You were already an old Lemmy user when I joined in, 3y ago!
Join me
Unfortunately it doesn’t get rid of all their comments, like one’s instance defederating would.
yeah.
I’m waiting until there is a deferated instance from lemmy.ml with downvotes disabled, until then, this is the best I can do.
If you don’t mind downvotes enabled, try lemmy,cafe :)
I only follow some .ml communities for the only thing that instance is good for: Memes making fun of neoliberals
thx! got more anarchist communities?
Check out the sidebar of [email protected]
Hello. Can I please make my internet experience both echoier and chamberier than it already is because it makes me sad when I encounter someone online who has different thoughts to me.
i dont watch shows i know i wont like on netflix. guess im in a echo chamber there too.
deleted by creator
Sure, just spend all your time on lemmy.ml and that’s exactly what you’ll get.
Every community is an echo chamber except for mine!
Have you actually been to lemmy.ml? They enforce vague rules to maintain their echo chamber
Notably, no comments have been removed from this thread for either supporting or decrying the CCP
deleted by creator
Can someone inform me about what’s wrong with lemmy.ml?
They are tankies
I’m confused. What are you saying? That word is thrown around against socialists. Tankies is often used to shut someone down and ignore what they’re saying no matter how correct it is, or how little it has to do with Marxism.
I’m out of the loop, what’s going on?
We have to fight ourselves instead of conservatives because someone’s left isn’t the right shade of blue.
More like, fighting against fake blue. If you’re praising China or Russia’s authoritarian version of communism, then you’re just conservatives without a capitalist economic system.
Something about .ml and MLs in general is that they really just aren’t that large a group. If we want larger communities, Reddit is still much bigger than Lemmy. If we want a flawed ally in politics, progressive liberals outnumber Leninists and are far less likely to deliberately betray us. (That’s why MLs always equate Liberalism with fascism; if people can ally with Liberals MLs have basically nothing they can bring to a coalition, and so they can’t seize power.)

Who are ‘you’ in this equation? A boat dealership owner?
Pretty much anyone on the left.
Note: Tankies aren’t leftists.
Note 2: MLs are tankies.
Never leave your mind palace. You’re the smartest person alive. You can write political theory completely on your own without ever looking out at the outside world just in your own head. It’s always perfect. You never have to define terms. You never have to explain mechanisms. And don’t you dare ever expose it to danger. Stay pithy my friend.
Famously loyal and trustworthy liberals will never deliberately betray you lmao. Just hope they never find out if you have to break a law the fascists draw up to protect yourself or others 🚔🚔🚔
And hope that you’re not part of whichever group they’re throwing under the bus to appease the fascists either.
Daily lemmy.world whingefest
Couldn’t care less about lemmy.world or a boycott. This post has the same energy as people in comment sections publicly announcing they are blocking someone.
Do what you want. No one cares.
Do what you want. No one cares.
Funny, I see quite a few butthurt ML people in this thread, so it would seem some people do care
