I’m not a big fan of moderation being at the whims of whoever has an agenda.
Are there lemmy instances that take moderation seriously and don’t just ban/censor people they disagree with? So far it looks like the mods in lemmy.world instances are very flippant with their moderation and I’m curious if anyone has filled the void yet for a better instance.
Edit: Thanks for everyone who tried to give a legitimate response. No thanks to those who just wanted to spout their talking points or debate the merits of freedom of speech; that was never the point of this thread.
Maybe, I tend to avoid big instances and news. I also heard stuff about news.world mod so I’m not surprised about what you said.
But I believe it is one dude on one community on one instance, there are still plenty of news community outside of world, ml and (former) grad so they are easy to avoid.
And it doesn’t change the fact that free speech != spewing hate so if some are looking for that kind of freedom, well, they can look elsewhere.
