Lemmy mods are pathetic and ban happy, like all internet janitors
That's the joke
I've seen what unmoderated platforms look like, so, not being an ungrateful POS, I only complain about mods when it's convenient to me in the moment.
Seen old forums.
They are fine, did you notice the activity spike? Sure, some of it is in wrong categories...most of it is...and maybe they don't even post things related to forums...well, mostly naked titties...but so much activity!
They look like 4chan
not sure if you are joking but 4chan isn’t unmoderated either. just has a much more bare bones philosophy.
/b/ has no moderation other than removal of child abuse and other illegal stuff. There are no rules on that board
And lets be honest, when people say 4chan, they mean either /b/ or /pol/
totally. but i think it’s important to let people know even /pol/ and /b/ have mods. someone the other day told me non-moderation is the “default option” for internet spaces and i think that deep and ahistorical misconception can lead to poor leadership if left unchallenged.
That's true for sure. Lemm.ee is better than some other instances in that regard, it's federated to all the major ones. Lemmy.world also announced moderation changes recently, which seem to be going in a positive direction.
I think that might be the reason why lemmy.world admin forced loose moderation policy on everyone recently.
