Comment on Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared
cm0002@piefed.world 6 days agoLMAO that doesn't even make sense, they're direct links, they'll take you to the source thread if it exists. Which, for most of my documentation, it does. You can click that little "Show Context" button/link and read each thread for yourself and gain this mystical context you seek

Ah yes, because linking can never be out of context!

If you refuse to do even basic investigation into information you're being given to verify it's veracity, then how are you so sure the tankies you run with are giving you good info?
The LW admins aren't in the modlog nearly constantly like .ml admins. They crop up from time to time but only to do deal with blatant spam, advertisers, instance wide rule breaking in abandoned comms, excessive troll/misinformation spreading accounts etc. They aren't pushing a particular ideology, narrative or political agenda. Unlike on .ml.
I regularly see them site-banning accounts for transphobia nor have a noticed a transphobia problem, troll crop up and are dealt with accordingly. Also - See Nutomics transphobia here and part 2 here

I see lw more often banning or removing than ml, usually ml only does temp while world does permanent, and for ml it’s users going in specially to get banned.
One of lw top mods is currently doing transphobia and may or may not get any response from the admins

Nutomics is a complete ass but I thought code was code?

For one, LW is 3x the size of .ml, naturally there are going to be more actions taken compared to .ml. it's equivalent to people complaining about how "crime is so much worse in NYC then [Some Small Town]".
Two, on .world moderators mod and admins admin, as it should be. By the time a .world admin is issuing something down it's because a particular user has already been problematic in individual comms and getting temp bans already OR it's a user spamming, posting ads or other harmful content (e.g. propaganda, misinformation (and even then, they let it go for a while longer than they should IMO))
Three, there's no pattern of abuse to push a particular agenda, as I have demonstrated with .ml admins. At worst, you can drum up some poor decisions
Absolutely problematic, Jordanlund should be removed. That being said JL is a mod, not an admin at the end of the day.
It does not prove systemic abuse of a respected position of a leading instance to push an agenda, unlike what is proven with the .ml admins.
While it's been 5 days, the LW admins should be given the time needed. Remember, it's essentially a bunch of humans in volunteer positions, it's not full time employment and removing such an integrated mod with large comms is no trivial task
They have acknowledged they are investigating and will take action.

I didn't say anything about the code, Nutomic is an admin on .ml just as much as the rest of them
