MODERATORS
Yeah, from my pov, it's not about silencing their opinions as much as it is wanting to avoid their authority because they abuse it to push their opinions.
Same reason I ultimately left Reddit. Admins were making choices I didn't like and forcing them on their users. The new site and official app both suck, but I had the option of using other apps or the old site. Even the old site isn't a great experience on mobile vs some 3rd party apps, but then they killed off the apps in a way that looked like they weren't being honest about (though in hindsight it was more about wanting to price access for AI training than specifically wanting to kill the 3rd party apps imo).
Lemmy isn't immune from any of that, but the impact isn't as high because federation gives options. And corruption turns into more of a game of whack a mole instead of "throw lots of money at the one entity controlling it" like Reddit and Twitter.
