Your point of reference is flipped. I don’t need to take accountability for something that the admins are doing.

Nah, it’s on you. No one is forcing you to use lemmyworld

Banning one community for being “illegal” while not banning another gives some fairly spectacular visuals.

false equivalence isn’t going to get you too far. If you think it’s so easy to moderate communities that walk the line of illegal/legal, then by all means, start your own instance.

fairly spectacular visuals.

this made me lol. it’s not some egregious action against the prestigious mushroom community… most casual users likely won’t even know this happened in a couple days, let alone give a single fuck…

If the first few days are spent looking for an instance where their communities and comments won’t get banned

this is just the other side of the coin of finding a community that aligns with you.

If the first thing people see is the same shitty admin actions that Reddit was known for, they puts a huge damper on adaptation.

So take accountability. If you don’t want people to just see posts of users whining, then do something constructive about it.

Ya’ll can hate how social media works all you want. Yet so few actually DO anything about it aside from complain. Just continuing to push the optics to what YOU want it to be rather than what the admins of LemmyWorld want to see. If that doesn’t align with you, then leave. it’s not complicated

So you’re all going to volunteer to be on the mod team or contribute to LW moderation in some way right? or go to a different instance that aligns with your views? With the huge variety of instances available, you come to the most mainstream, and complain it’s the most mainstream… wild

For me this is kind of a grim reminder that one day BF1 will be on this kind of list… Damn.

I’d rather play BC/BC2 single player campaign than BF1. And it’s not even close.
