That’s the nice thing about federation, you don’t have to interact. If you don’t like how a community is run, don’t participate in it, or even defederate.

100% correct! I don’t enjoy the culture and moderation style there so I don’t usually participate. I’ll comment on something if it makes it into my all feed or something, I don’t actively avoid them either.

It’s our instance and our communities. The mods represent us, or there would be feedback from our instance’s users saying they disagree with moderation.
TexMexBazooka@lemm.ee 1 year ago
The mods represent the users that haven’t been banned*
Important distinction

I mean, if you look at the modlogs, most bans have a reason And the reasons are things like xenophobia, transphobia but in more words, general troll vibes, etc. Not just because someone doesn’t like the mods

“delicate sensibilities” is just a poorly disguised way of saying you don’t care about other people’s feelings, though
TexMexBazooka@lemm.ee 1 year ago
I mean that the debate right? To what extent do we allow people’s feelings to dictate public behavior?
I agree everyone should be respected, I support and am a part of the LGBT community, but some things just aren’t worth getting that offended over.
