So I made a comment on worldnews criticizing Chinese activity in the south china sea and apparently got banned for it by the automod. This happen to anyone else? Is this Lemmy's version of the need help post and the shape of things to come?

The instance I posted in was Lemmy.ml

Block these instances: lemmy.ml lemmygrad.ml hexbear.net

There is no point arguing with tankies. They are dumb and they won't change. I just hope there will be a way to completely block those users including their comments. They are polluting the fediverse.

I just hope there will be a way to completely block [...] users including their comments.

Remember who the developers are.

[-] cloudless@lemmy.world 31 points 8 months ago

Yeah. I hope kbin will grow and have a decent mobile app, then I can finally move over.

[-] Ignacio@kbin.social 12 points 8 months ago

You also have mbin, being fedia.io its main instance.

And eventually we will have Sublinks I hope?

Check out Kbin.earth and the Interstellar app! :)

When I tried the Interstellar app earlier, it crashed frequently. Just tried it again with the current version and it seems to be very stable now. Thanks for the suggestion.

Is there something unique about kbin.earth? I am using kbin.melroy.org for now, which runs on mbin.

yeah as soon as sublinks has an actual public instance i'm switching over

[-] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 2 points 8 months ago

But... Kbin can federate just as easily with those instances as Lemmy. You shouldn't think "I'm going to move to kbin", that wouldn't help in any way.

You should rather move to an instance (using any backend you like, Lemmy, Kbin, doesn't matter) that has defederated from the instances you don't want to interact with.
