Since the lemmy.world admins here are refusing to clarify their own rules, selectively enforcing their vague rules, using communities for user counts before banning them and just being, well, spez-like, it’s time to find a new home.
So far, I am liking lemmy.ml, but I still have a list I am going through.
Where are you going?
Oh, before you go, make sure to file a CCPA or GDPR data deletion request. If they are so inclined to “stay legal”, they can start with those items.
It’s still their community for which they were the administrators. Don’t like their administrative decisions? Don’t use their instance. Then you aren’t beholden to their guidelines but still get to participate in communities resident to that home server.
I am on other instances. The problem is that they are, like it or not, the first impression that new users get of Lemmy and the rest of the federation.
I am all for that! They need to properly define those guidelines. While it is “their” instance, the intent is for it to be publicly accessible. Continuity with their own guidelines is kind of important to help this space grow as a public instance. I don’t care what those guidelines are, just make them consistent.
