    lemmy.flatworld at it again lmao, my bet is that they want to control all the main communities on the fediverse (the irony lol) and you don’t seem like you would play ball

      There is a battle between ML and world for this.

      Really need people seeding communities on smaller servers

        i have never seen such drama from .ml, which would be odd since its run by the devs who built this platform for the fediverse in the first place

          ML was first big instance and they control some key subs like privacy and Linux. So people go in there posting then quickly realizing mocking shepoor will not be tolerated.

          World is way more aggressively for sure and is constantly causing drama with their neo lib narrtaive weaving. Permabans for news and politics subs for unsanctioned opinions is their MO

          Tankies don’t do perma bans at least.

      Doesn’t really have anything to do directly with LW. This is one person, who happens to be a mod of a community on LW, being mad at someone for having the same community somewhere else.

      Edit: oooh, he’s part of the LW staff 😂

      I’m 100% behind Blaze.

      The strange thing is that I’m not completely against LW. The sysadmins do a great job, and offer a solid experience for a lot of users.

      I usually post to LW communities like the ones I quoted above when it’s a topic I’m not really that invested about, or when it’s still niche on Lemmy, so having the main community on LW is just easier.

      But on the other hand, when there’s a topic I care about, I usually indeed try to offer an alternative on another instance like Lemm.ee. Just seems healthier to spread communities across instances a bit.
