I can’t login to .ml, that fact is confusing. You say federated and I think I get that, but I think to most people not in the IT world, that’s basically “abracadabra”.

Lemmy right now is too.. well not clumsy exactly, but it does feel vague with all these seperate iterations like .world or .ml and they are seperate and require seperate logins etc so that’s not handy at all. People are used to ease of use, this is where (for now) Reddit remains king.

Well as I mentioned somewhere before, I’m still new here, but it’s seems fairly normal to me so far. On Reddit I’ve been temporarily or permanently banned from Subreddits like for the silliest things, when a mod doesn’t like you, there is no point. They will call you names and whatnot, doesn’t matter, appeal process? Doesn’t seem to exist.

Now how this works on Lemmy is still an unknown to me, though I do think Lemmy is too “complex” for the average internet user and so won’t be able to gain a similar “succes” in terms of userbase and ease of use.

A Dutch site, but with a bit of translation applied it should be perfectly readable from Dutch to English. Also you are not bombarded with ads unlike the original the guardian link, they link to that article and so it’s available if preferred.

I am an ironic man, so it’s certainly possible.

Thanks for the heads up, 10 year old account was almost gone, phew!

“Gee, the usual suspects, oh I guess I’m racist now”. That was it, just a snarky cynical comment / “joke” relating to a couple of store robbers/thieves.

“Encouraging hate”, or something like that according to the ban.

Way over the top reaction by a mod or admin, keep in mind I got nothing but upvotes on that comment too.. somebody really didn’t like that.
