    ml seems to be coming a bit unwound. They have been super ban happy lately but enforce the rules very unevenly. Hexbears can post pig shit gifs, but citing mainstream political science gets you banned pretty reliably if you do it under the wrong gaze. It really is starting to look more and more like fediverse cancer.

    It looks like ani.social they have a rule to forbid the content though might have just been posts that weren’t reported

      Wouldn’t they use allegedly in the same way that news orgs use it? It’s lack of accountability if they get sued

        It kind of cuts both ways, though. If you want to actually punish something for doing something, “allegedly” doesn’t really cut it.

        Hey, I allege that lemmygrad has tons of Loli porn on it! No need to check, I’m alleging it. Guess it needs to be blacklisted now too?

      It’s the lemmy.ml admins/lemmy devs, didn’t really expect anything else from them.

          thanks, not my own work entirely. @[email protected] has been a godsend in helping me get everything set up moderation wise as well as second opinions on things. I mostly handle the technical side of things.

        One of 'em are cool, the other a straight up fascist. Such is the the world.

    I’ve been on this instance for a about a month now, and I’ve not seen anything remotely like that

    It would not shock me in the least if the reason this instance was put on that list was because of one of those “all weebs are pedos” jerks

      Remember when a bunch of instances banned nsfwlemmy because they allegedly allowed pedo content, when in truth they just decided to not moderate fictional characters where the age was not obvious (like potentially 18, but plus / minus a couple years)?

      I think especially Lemmy.ml should rather focus more on cleaning up their Tankie & moderator issues instead of chasing ghosts, because that instance is a toxic cesspool of assholes and disinformation.

        As much as I would love to see it, I don’t think the lead devs of lemmy, who own both lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml, are going to ban themselves.

            That’s how it was originally. They spun lemmygrad off to an entirely different serve because they made a halfhearted attempt at going mainstream, which seems to have lasted about 5 minutes
