MODERATORS
FYI lemmy was founded by a tankie, you shouldn’t be that surprised.
I think I've seen them mention that their personal views shouldn't affect Lemmy's moderation and administration in practice and the code of conduct reflects that. However there're communities where they're the only mod and the worldnews style random reason modding is apparent there as well
They 100% intend to keep their thumb on the scale as much as possible. I think their behavior has shown pretty conclusively that they cannot be trusted and will abuse any tiny bit of power they can.
I look forward to helping make them hate their own creation.
I assumed and gathered the gist of the general ideology here, even if I don’t know the story at all.
I was attracted to the decentralized aspect of it all, and was hoping for challenging views and conversations. I ended up having what I found to be a frustrating but productive one, that then ended up gradually deleted by mods and then I was banned.
I wanna get out of the echo chambers it’s so easy to create.
It really sucked!
I think you'd probably have to log off to escape that, but then you'd just be confined to a different kind of inescapable echo chamber
the free software “movement” as it were attracts everyone from tankies to ancaps, and personally I think that’s great. At least (almost) everyone can agree on something
