The mainly automated moderation on FB and Twit were infuriating when I used them, yes. I was suspended twice on Twit (pre-musk) for fairly innocuous comments. Meanwhile, when I reported literal death threats, I’d get back the message “we reviewed this and it didn’t violate our community standards”. At this point I deleted my Twat account and haven’t signed into FB in 4 years.
I deleted the app too ! But Facebook is hard for me to give up because I have friends from all over the world to stay in touch with, and it is the simplest way.
Mind you I have persevered and gotten a lot of Nazis banned from Facebook.
Why not have your friends join lemmy, start a new community around live journaling here and enjoy the freedom of expression y’all crave.
This will accomplish 2 things:
Take revenue away from Facebook
Helps increase user share for lemmy.
This way you all have the same interests working to your advantage
That's actually a really good idea.
I do get them once in a while. Although, they tend to be fat and few between. Lol
I'm all for more Lemmy. Love this place.
