  I fail to see the problem after I explained that you’re free to post elsewhere. I too have a sign-in with them. But because of their dumb shit- I left and don’t post from there anymore.

  That’s how lemmy works. That’s the entire point of it.

    You’re free to abandon your account and they’re free to not hire authoritarian moderators. Why should it be on you and not them?

      ROFL! So… to summarize, you think the moderators who put their own time, effort, and money into running an instance….

      … are entirely beheld to a random tool that doesn’t like how things are run?

      It’s not on them because they own the instance. If you don’t like it, fuck all the way off elsewhere. It’s what I did. Because I get how it works.

        If I go to a mechanic and they put Nazi literature in my car, I have a couple of options. One would be to just switch to another mechanic and not say anything. The other would be to let everyone know about the car place that puts Nazi literature in your car to shame them into firing whoever it was that did it.

        You would take option one. I consider that cowardly.
