I've found I've been blocked on world news for posting comments againts fascist ideas. I've been shadow banned from world news for posting comprehensive evidence of china's crimes against humans aka their concentration camps. It wasn't opinion i linked to studies, and it wasn't inflammatory. My comments were removed and now i can't like or comment.

It's really disturbing ngl. I mean reddit was trash too but i expected some freedom of information here.

Was it the .ml or the .world instance? I had comments deleted for "misinformation" on .ml. It's why I migrated away from .ml because it was only a matter of time before my account was banned.

it was.ML yes .

You'll probably be happier at !world@lemmy.world instead.

I generally avoid communities on lemmy.ml where there are options elsewhere.

Yeah, I just blocked the .ml worldnews community. It isn't worth the effort trying to discuss politics with them. The .world instance has been fine for me so far.

Wait......people on Lemmy.ml can ban your account site wide if you're not home to lemmy.ml? I don't know the right word for it. But I log into Lemmy.world. You're saying if I comment on a topic on a Lemmy.ml instance, the Lemmy.ml mods can ban the whole account site wide?

For reference:

Modlog

He linked https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinjiang_internment_camps

That's not allowed on lemmy.ml

New person here. What isn't allowed on Lemmy.ml? The linking of wikipedia?

Anything that speaks poorly of China, especially Wikipedia.

How did Lemmy.ml become the dominant userbase with those policies?

Lemmy.world is bigger, but Lemmy.ml.is the developers' instance, and gets the newest versions of Lemmy first.

It's also the oldest instance, I believe.

There have been many times I've been blocked by subreddits just for posting an opinion that the moderators disagreed with. Moderators have way too much control over the website.

At least modlogs are public, so people can call them out about it

I linked to a lot of other studies im a separate comment too share that if we're being transparent
