Why Would An Instance Admin Say This About Their Users? - Lemmy.world

Isn’t it the users that essential keep their instances alive? “we are willing to cut users that don’t fit with what we are aiming for and think that instances sound have particular goals pther then ‘growth’”

i can understand where they’re coming from

if your instance was called lemmy.freds.com, and your goal was to create an instance purely for people called fred to use; it would be understandable to remove people who claimed to be called fred, and then it turns out they actually aren’t

now i don’t know what instance this is, but say it’s lemmy.dbzer0.com - if a user is going around decrying piracy, or reporting copyright infringement on lemmy to authorities; i think it would be reasonable to remove them

What if they are cutting you off because you are of a particular race they don’t like?

that’s ok, because it’s the “bad” race.
