lemmy.ml 🧐

Well yeah, don’t use ml or hex if you don’t want this stupidity.

They didn't remove it because of the "girl".
They removed it because "It's all a simulation" implies that the glory of the Chinese Communist Party isn't real.

ml is a cesspool. It's best not to even bother engaging in their communities. They'll ban you for stupid shit. This needs to be made more well known to help break the network effect they have going on with some of their communities.

I saw that comment, before it was removed. I thought it was relevant as the post was about misgendering.

I guess it was too friendly and subtle. They needed me to be seething to feel secure about my intentions.

Worth mentioning is the comment had 34 upvotes and 1 down. So it wasn't exactly controversial, from a community perspective.

Yep, has happened to me before!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

I'm so sorry that happened to you.

That's dumb. Every mod at ml seems to be mentally challenged

This is more common than you'd expect.

For the record, I didn't see your post, but from the replies from people that did, it doesn't sound like it should have been a problem.

My advice is to block the whole instance from your profile. I did this and I'm much happier for it.

I just ignore that instance in its entirety, and ignore the fact that it even exists. Not worth my time.

It's because Lemmy as a whole is a toxic cesspool. Thankfully, it will never gain much traction. The end.
