ChowJeeBai@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 368 points –

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

Hey fellow non-China Chinese. Just block lemmy.ml, lemmy grad.ml and hexbear for a much better lemmy experience.

Those instances are just satire right?

.....right?

lemmygrad is a full-on cult, lemmy.ml is its public front and embassy, and hexbear, well, there's plenty of idiots on hexbear, the problem with hexbearians isn't that they're Stalinists but that they think signal politics does anything, hence also their propensity to pile. At least in the past I think they've given up on doing it outside hexbear.

Two of them are practically dead.

Hexbear is just the exodus of ChapoTrapHouse and a few affiliated sites from when Reddit kicked its ban policy into high gear. The Akira Toriyama Megathread and Online Movie Night top-posts seem about as sincere and good natured as anything on any other social media site.

Only if Sino on reddit was as well. Which I thought was when I first came across it.

How to block?

settings/ blocks tab/ block instances at the bottom

Boost app does not seem to be able to block an instance.

How do I actually block instances?

Anyway fuck tankies

If you're on the website, just go to settings, block
