    I unsubscribed from world news on lemmy.ml as soon as I heard about them being tankies. Lemmy.world has the same community with mostly the same posts anyway.

      I mean this really upsetting since they have c/technology and c/privacy communities. Someone might post something like high-tech surveillance of actvtists or Uyghurs

        There’s a reason I don’t mod any communities on that instance. I don’t understand why other people would either.

    So what’s the problem? It’s a ban-happy three-person mod team shaping a community. There are other communities with the same explicit subject. When a community’s mods move it in a direction you don’t like, you join or make a different one, and the nature of Lemmy means they haven’t even camped an important community name.

    It’s not even a particularly tankie sub, there’re posts calling Russia warmongers still up and at +82. Seems like most of the removals were posts trying to pick fights. And while tankie bashing is often fun and warranted, it’s not really extreme censorship to say that’s breaking a rule saying “everyone should feel welcome here”.

    Too bad It's impossibe too see wich mod is doing what.
    It could be a general lemmy.ml policy, it could allso just be that the first worldnews mod is opiniated , and chose his own modteam for worldnews.

      Can’t users see which moderator/admin removed content in the modlog?

        It just says mod/admin on lemmy.ml , on kbin you can see the mod-username.

  I’m not shure how to read the modlog.

  1. Visit the instance in question, for example lemmy.ml
  2. Scroll to the bottom or Ctrl+PgEnd, click on “Modlog”: lemmy.ml/modlog (as you see, you can also just append /modlog to the URL)
  3. Filter by action, or filter by user. For example, enter your own name to see if you have been banned

  This way, I just found out I’ve been banned on lemmy.ml for this comment which surely is snarky, and technically disrespectful. They did not ban Krause (parent comment). So I guess spreading lies is fine as long as you do it “respectfully”. Speaking up to that gets you banned.

    Yea, that's just a proper response to the parent post. Now I agree that lemmy.ml is an instance to avoid.
