Good thing I’m just chilling on https://lemmy.cafe/, it’s pretty nice here :)
Having so many communities concentrated in one instance is a problem
Having an architecture that locks communities to an instance is a problem. They should be distributed across the network with no notion of a home instance.
How would moderation work then?
Probably better than whatever batshit moderation happens right now on the tankie instances
Context
Also, lots of discussion under the announcement post in the new comm https://lemmy.world/post/24437552.
Omg the disparity is palpable.
The post you linked:
we are going to continue to moderate on this instance exactly the same as we did on blahaj.zone.
The “we’ve already left” style post on blahaj:
Why? That’s a complicated question with a long answer! The primary difference is moderatorial and ideologial differences between my team and Ada’s excellent team of admins…
Edit: so in asking whether the moderation will appear the same to the users, the answer is “well yes, except actually no”.

Instance wars are so fucking pathetic
You would say that coming from that dungheap at lemmy.zip!
Drag saw 196 mods mentioning their plan to move instances after Ada told them not to misgender trans people. “Ideological differences”, huh? Wonder what that’s code for
You did piss off a couple of powerusers dedicated to instance wars, but the mods are working to insist that’s not what any of this is about.
In the past 15 hours drag has read a lot about why the mods did it. Apparently, they weren’t closing reports on Blahaj, so Ada actioned them, and Ada was stricter with the rules than they liked.
When Ada said neopronouns aren’t trolling, drag saw a lot of transphobic comments on 196 that the mods weren’t removing. Drag was already banned from the community at that time and couldn’t report them, so drag contacted Ada directly, and Ada removed them.
At that time, moving the community out of the instance was a “maybe”. Perhaps neopronouns were the last straw. At the time, the 196 mods were saying they didn’t agree with the removals and bans of transphobia and misgendering.
