How do you feel about the level of censorship in your current instance ? (lemmy.ml)

Since Lemmy is federated, and the admins of each instance choose what’s allowed and what’s not in their own instance.

How do you feel about what’s allowed and what’s not in your current instance ?

I’ll start: I’ve read people complaining about my instance admins, but I haven’t experienced nor seen anything I specifically disagree with.

And I’ve read things they wrote that I absolutely agree with, like not federating with Meta under any circumstances.

So for now, I’m happy with it. If I get banned randomly, I don’t think I’d go to a different instance, though. I’d probably just stop visiting Lemmy altogether.

Pretty good, it only defeds from two instances, one used by pedos and threads.

What's up with threads?

[–] WittyProfileName2@hexbear.net 14 points 4 days ago

It's an attempt by Meta to swallow the fediverse via Microsoft's old "embrace, extend, extinguish" strategy.

I'm out of the loop. What instance is pedos? (Legit so I can block it, if hexbear isn't defederated already)

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I personally haven't seen any of that while on my Hexbear account, the mods and admins usually do a great job of blocking all of that out.

[–] Nopeace@hexbear.net 3 points 3 days ago

Yeah I haven't ever heard of or seen posts from there so I am super thankful the hexbear admins are on their shit

Don't want to link it for obvious reasons, but it's burggit (dot) moe

My app (voyager) doesn't show an extention following your username, are you also on mander.xyz?

[–] RobotToaster@mander.xyz 2 points 3 days ago

Yes I am. That's how lemmy's web interface shows your username to me.
